The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) has adopted a tariff of ₹6.74/kWh for 1,500 MW renewable energy projects with storage. This move is expected to promote the development of renewable energy projects in India. The tariff will apply to projects that combine renewable energy sources with energy storage systems, enabling a stable and reliable power supply
Who this affects
This development changes the tariffs for generators and the renewable energy industry in India, making it more viable for companies to invest in renewable energy projects with storage, which can lead to increased adoption of clean energy and reduced dependence on fossil fuels, ultimately benefiting households and the environment
