This scheme of the Government of India is one of the largest initiatives in the
world to provide clean energy to more than 3.5 million farmers.
The scheme plans to set up 30.8 GW of solar capacity by December 31, 2022,
through the financial assistance of INR 340.35 billion.
The government has extended PM-KUSUM scheme till March 2026.
Budget Allocation to this scheme - Rs 1996 Crore
Major objectives of PM KUSUM:
De-dieselization of the farm sector
Providing water and energy security to farmers
Increasing the income of farmers
Curbing environmental pollution
Features of the scheme:
In the beginning, the central government had a plan to distribute 1.75

million off-grid agricultural solar pumps.
Barren lands of the farmers will be used to install about 10000 MW of solar
pumps.
Additional electricity generated from these pumps can be sold to the state
electricity distribution companies called DISCOMs.

The farmers will be able to get a subsidy of 60% for buying solar pumps. This
amount will be transferred as a direct benefit transfer (DBT) to their respective
bank accounts.
The subsidy amount will be shared by the central and state governments.
30 % of the remaining amount will be given as a loan to the farmers.
Thus, only 10% of the amount will have to be borne by the farmers.
Components of PM KUSUM:
Component A: 10,000 MW of Decentralized Ground Mounted Grid

Connected Renewable Power Plants of individual plant size up to 2 MW.
Component B: Installation of 17.50 lakh standalone Solar Powered

Agriculture Pumps of individual pump capacity up to 7.5 HP.
Component C: Solarisation of 10 Lakh Grid-connected Agriculture Pumps of

individual pump capacity up to 7.5 HP.
