Solar power installations cross 3,000-MW mark.

The total capacity of solar power plants has crossed the 3,000-MW mark, with 734 MW added so far this year, says a report of Mercom Capital Group, a clean energy consultancy.

Mercom expects 800 MW of installations this year, 20 per cent lower than the previous year.

However, the consultancy has projected that 2015 will see an addition of 1,800 MW of solar capacity.
