Abstract: There are some specific constraints that hinder the development of solar and wind energy system in India. However, India has adequate sunshine and balanced wind speed. Hence there is greater opportunity for extension of solar and wind energy system in the Indian scenario along with enough future scope for these renewable sources through “Grid Parity”. The aim of this paper is to present in a coherent and integrated way the major constraints hampering the development of renewable energy in India.
