India added 6.9 GW of solar open access capacity in 2024, a 77% year-over-year increase from 3.9 GW, according to the newly-released Mercom India Q4 & Annual 2024 India Solar Open Access Market Report. The increase in solar open access was primarily driven by the availability of low-cost Chinese modules, which were imported before the reimposition of the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers from April 2024.
