Abstract

The study attempts to analyse the Indian solar photovoltaic technological innovation system. The Indian solar photovoltaic industry has become one of the front runners in the renewable energy sector consistently increasing the generation of power. The study relies on both primary and secondary data. It adopts a technological innovation system framework to understand the crucial role, interplay of the various actors and institutions, the nature of the linkages, and the knowledge production from various actors and to see the several key functions in the Indian photovoltaic technological innovation system. Analysing these key functions will help in identifying the inducement and blocking mechanisms and to see the future directions pertaining to the photovoltaic technological innovation system in the country. The study has found that entrepreneurs carry out many activities that perform a major impact. Processes related to knowledge development are found to be stable. At the same time, there is a large fluctuation in the processes related to the guidance of the search. The number of research publications and patents has increased after the introduction of the National Solar Mission. Inconsistent regulations, unpredictable behaviour of the government, and the lack of a clear vision for the technology are the key barriers in the technological innovation system.
