Last updated: 29 November 2016

The objective of the Master Plan is to formulate a strategy for the use of renewable energy between 2012 and 2026.

The plan does not set renewable energy targets, but provides scenarios for capacity addition of different renewable energy technologies by 2026, in three stages (2012-2016), (2017-2021) and (2022-2026):
