January 9 , 2026 15 hrs 0 min 57 0
  • India inaugurated the world’s fifth National Primary Standard Facility for Solar Cell Calibration at CSIR – National Physical Laboratory, New Delhi.
  • The facility provides high-precision calibration of solar cells to ensure accurate photovoltaic (PV) measurements.
  • It uses a laser-based Differential Spectral Responsivity (DSR) system for calibration.
  • The facility achieves a low measurement uncertainty of about 0.35%, meeting global standards.
  • It was developed in collaboration with PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt), Germany.
  • The facility reduces India’s dependence on foreign solar calibration and supports the domestic solar industry.
