For the grid connected solar power projects developed by central ministries, departments, and central public sector undertaking (PSU), the order prescribes preference to be given to domestically manufactured solar PV modules and other components such as inverters.

Of this, solar PV modules have to be 100 percent locally manufactured and inverters have to be at least 40 percent locally manufactured.

Under the decentralised solar power category, the requirement of local content in solar street lights, solar home lighting systems, solar power packs/micro grid, solar water pumps, inverters, batteries, and any other solar PV balance of system is 70 percent.
