UPSC Mains 2025 PYQ Analysis | Solar Energy Benefits Answer

This question asks you to explain how solar power helps both ecology and the economy in India, with real examples. In this video, we unpack the exact demand of the UPSC Mains 2025 GS3 question and show you how to convert it into a crisp, high-scoring answer.

We will first analyse the directive “Explain briefly”, the key phrases “ecological benefits”, “economic benefits”, and “suitable examples”, and what this means for word limit, balance, and depth. Then we will help you build content around solar energy in India using multiple dimensions, relevant data, schemes, and current examples. Finally, we walk you through a model answer with a clear introduction–body–conclusion that you can adapt for similar renewable energy questions in future Mains.

You will also learn how to:
Identify the core demand: ecology + economy + India-specific + examples.
Break the body into clean sub-headings for ecological and economic benefits.
Use data, policies and examples (e.g. solar parks, rooftop solar, PM-KUSUM) without overloading the answer.
Link solar energy to climate commitments, energy security, jobs and inclusive growth.
Avoid common mistakes like generic points, missing India focus, or weak conclusion.

Try to pause the video, write your own 150–200 word answer first, and then compare it with the model structure shown. Use the same framework to practise other GS3 questions on renewable energy, green growth and sustainable development.
