About International Solar Alliance (ISA):

- ISA’s mission is to unlock US$ 1 trillion (?80 lakh crore) of investments in solar power by 2030 while reducing the cost of the technology and its financing.
- It is going to stimulate investments into solar projects through two financial components:
- Solar Payment Guarantee Fund:
- The payment guarantee fund will only provide a partial guarantee.
- The guarantee fund would enable investments in geographies that do not receive investments.
- Solar Insurance Fund:
- It will reduce the burden of insurance premiums for solar developers in the pre-revenue phase of the project.
- It will offset the cost of insurance for a specified period.
