According to Ministry of New and Renewable Energy data, Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation inputs, and Samta Power, Rajasthan led India’s solar expansion with nearly 27% share by FY 2025–26. National solar capacity reached 150,260 MW, with Gujarat ranking second at about 20%. Together, Rajasthan and Gujarat accounted for nearly 47% of India’s total solar capacity. However, Rajasthan faced transmission constraints, leaving 1,500–2,000 MW of solar power unused daily. Registrations for new solar projects in the state increased to about 40,000 MW. Around 3,000 MW of additional solar capacity is expected to be commissioned in the next six months. Officials said new transmission infrastructure and battery storage remain critical to avoid capacity losses.
