1. The initiative to establish the International Solar Alliance (ISA) was jointly taken by _______. अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सौर गठबंधन (आईएसए) की स्थापना की पहल संयुक्त रूप से किसके द्वारा की गई थी?
(A) India & USA
(B) India & France
(C) India & UK

(B) India & France
The International Solar Alliance (ISA) is an alliance of signatory countries, most being sunshine countries, which lie either completely or partly between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn and receive sunshine for more than 300 days. अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सौर गठबंधन (आईएसए) हस्ताक्षरकर्ता देशों का एक गठबंधन है, जिनमें से अधिकांश धूप वाले देश हैं, जो या तो पूरी तरह से या आंशिक रूप से कर्क रेखा और मकर रेखा के बीच स्थित हैं।
Signatory Country :- Signatory Country means a country which has signed the Agreement but has yet to deposit its instrument of ratification, acceptance, or approval (अनुसमर्थन, स्वीकृति या अनुमोदन).
The primary objective of the alliance is to work for efficient consumption of solar energy to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. गठबंधन का प्राथमिक उद्देश्य जीवाश्म ईंधन पर निर्भरता को कम करने के लिए सौर ऊर्जा की कुशल खपत के लिए काम करना है।
The primary objective of the alliance is to work for efficient consumption of solar energy to reduce the dependence on non-renewable sources of energy like fossil fuels. गठबंधन का प्राथमिक उद्देश्य जीवाश्म ईंधन जैसे ऊर्जा के गैर-नवीकरणीय स्रोतों पर निर्भरता को कम करने के लिए सौर ऊर्जा की कुशल खपत के लिए काम करना है।
There are four major types of nonrenewable resources :- oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear energy. Oil, natural gas, and coal are collectively called fossil fuels. Fossil fuels were formed within the Earth from dead plants and animals over millions of years—hence the name “fossil” fuels.
The most well-known impact of using non-renewable energy sources is the emission of greenhouse gases, in particular carbon dioxide and methane, which contribute to climate change.
This initiative was first proposed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a speech in November 2015 at Wembley Stadium (United Kingdom), in which he referred to sunshine countries as Suryaputra ("Sons of the Sun").
The alliance is a treaty-based inter-governmental organization. गठबंधन एक संधि आधारित अंतर-सरकारी संगठन है।
:- Countries that do not fall within the Tropics can join the alliance and enjoy all benefits as other members, with the exception of voting rights.
2. When was ISA established? आईएसए की स्थापना कब हुई थी?
(A) 2011
(B) 2013
(C) 2015
(D) 2018
(C) 2015
The initiative was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the India Africa Summit, and a meeting of member countries ahead of the 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris in November 2015. The establishment of ISA was announced at the 21st session of United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP-21) in Paris, France held on November 30, 2015.
3. Where was the Framework Agreement of the International Solar Alliance open for signing? अंतर्राष्ट्रीय सौर गठबंधन का ढांचा समझौता कहाँ पर हस्ताक्षर के लिए खुला था?
(A) Marrakesh, Morocco
(B) Berlin, Germany
(C) Geneva, Switzerland
(D) Bonn, Germany
(A) Marrakesh, Morocco
4. The ISA is headquartered in _______. आईएसए का मुख्यालय कहाँ है?
(A) Germany
(B) New Delhi
(C) France
(D) Gurugram
(D) Gurugram
In January 2016, Narendra Modi, and the then French President François Hollande jointly laid the foundation stone of the ISA Headquarters and inaugurated the interim Secretariat at the National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE) in Gwal Pahari, Gurugram, India.
The alliance is also called International Agency for Solar Policy and Application (IASPA).
5. India set a target to install 175 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2022. What is the solar energy target of India by 2022? भारत ने 2022 तक 175 गीगावॉट अक्षय ऊर्जा क्षमता स्थापित करने का लक्ष्य रखा है। 2022 तक भारत का सौर ऊर्जा लक्ष्य क्या है?
(A) 120 GW
(B) 100 GW
(C) 80 GW
(D) 60 GW
(B) 100 GW
This includes 100 GW of solar energy, 60 GW of wind energy, 10 GW of biomass power, and 5 GW of small hydro power.
:- National Solar Mission was launched in 2010 to promote solar power in the country.
:- The rooftop solar programme was launched in February 2019.
:- Reduction in emission intensity by 33–35% by 2030.
6. The country's solar installed capacity was _______ as of 31st January 2022.
(A) 48.645 GW
(B) 45.552 GW
(C) 50.777 GW
(D) 57.392 GW
(C) 50.777 GW
The area of Earth located in between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn is called the tropical (torrid) zone. his is the part of the world in which the sun can appear directly overhead. वह दुनिया का वह हिस्सा है जिसमें सूर्य सीधे ऊपर दिखाई दे सकता है।
:- The alliance has partnered with World Bank to launch Global Solar Atlas at an ISA event at the World Future Energy Summit in Abu Dhabi.
Global Solar Atlas :- The Global Solar Atlas (GSA) is a free, online, map-based application that provides information on solar resource globally.
