Solar installations today are an incredibly attractive solution for the energy needs of these micro-enterprises in rural India. Estimated opportunity is over 9 GWs, and $6bn just in the 4 states mentioned above, however, availability of financing is the single most important hurdle for this market to take off. $98bn solar financing opportunity overall.
