The Union Cabinet of India on 3 September 2013 approved the proposal for setting up of an autonomous National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE). The NISE will act as an apex national center for research and development and related activities in the area of solar energy technologies in India. It will also assist the Government to look forward towards the development aspects of the sector.
The National Institute of Solar Energy will be established by converting Solar Energy Centre (SEC), Gurgaon with a long term vision to develop it as a world class institute.
The Government would set-up a national team in the form of a Review-cum-Strategy Formulation Committee representation from industry, the scientific community, financial institutions to prepare a blue print. The committee will be responsible for various models available in the country and outside and prepare a roadmap for the Institute.
Background
