The state has a large installed capacity of solar power plants, and is one of the leading states in the country in terms of solar power generation. The state government has also been promoting solar energy through various initiatives, such as the installation of solar panels on government buildings and providing subsidies to consumers for installing solar rooftop systems.<\/p>\n<p>Solar energy is a clean and renewable source of energy that can help to reduce the state&#8217;s dependence on fossil fuels. It is also a cost-effective source of energy, and the state government&#8217;s initiatives have made it more affordable for consumers to install solar panels.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wind energy is not the major non-conventional energy source being harnessed in Karnataka. The state has a relatively small installed capacity of wind power plants.<\/li>\n<li>Biomass energy is not the major non-conventional energy source being harnessed in Karnataka.
