      Good attempt.
      Multiple points have been covered.
      Introduction and conclusion are also fine.
      In challenges, you could add land scarcity for solar project, high losses in transmission & distribution which makes it unfeasible.
      Also, some points like rapid pace of technological obsoleteness and logistical challenges between countries are not clear, exactly what do you mean. You could explain them a bit.
      In way forward, some innovative points like use of bio solar cells by generating electricity from microbial photosynthetic and respiration processes can be mentioned to make the answer stand out.
      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Good attempt.
      Introduction and benefits of solar energy are well written.
      Challenges mentioned are fine too. You could also mention transmission & distribution losses here. Other points are good.
      Way forward and conclusion are fine.

      Decent attempt.
      Introduction is fine. After that, briefly some benefits of solar energy could be listed (2-3 lines).

      Decent attempt.
      In introduction, you can briefly explain ‘net zero by 2070’. After the first paragraph, some benefits of solar energy could be mentioned. (2-3 lines).
      Challenges mentioned are good. Further, you could add issues like high transmission and distribution losses, acceptability concerns and low cost to benefit ratio (Despite significant growth in the installed solar capacity, the contribution of solar energy to the country’s power generation has not grown at the same pace).
      Way forward is pretty good. Conclusion is fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Hello

      In introduction, one line on explaining India’s net zero target would be good. Rest of it is fine. Good that you have mentioned some significance.
      Challenges mentioned are decent. Further, you could add issues like high transmission and distribution losses, acceptability concerns and low cost to benefit ratio (Despite significant growth in the installed solar capacity, the contribution of solar energy to the country’s power generation has not grown at the same pace).
      Way forward is good. Some innovative points like use of bio solar cells by generating electricity from microbial photosynthetic and respiration processes can be mentioned. Government schemes can be integrated here only. No need to write separate subsection as it has not been exclusively asked.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
