Abstract
India has a population of 1.3 billion people and one of largest growing economies in the world. Therefore, there is a strong demand of energy. Till date, the main source of energy is coal which is non renewable and harmful to the environment. Therefore, it is important and necessary to find an alternative source of energy. This indirectly drives us to focus on Renewable Energy Source, which has several advantages. The Ministry of National Renewable Energy (MNRE) has launched many schemes to encourage the domestic and commercial sector to use renewable energy sources. In India the state of Rajasthan is occupying 5th position in the production of electric power generation from Renewable Energy Sources like Solar, Wind and Biomass etc. Therefore this paper discusses the potential and opportunities of electric power generation through renewable energy in the state of Rajasthan.
