A policy paper with the Mahindra Group
By Neufin Energy with Mahindra Group
Summary
What holds back corporate renewable buying in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Telangana: eligibility thresholds that shut out smaller sites, uneven rollout of the green open access rules, high banking fees and curtailment rules that unsettle lenders. The paper sets out five changes.
Key points
- 1Roll out the green energy open access regulations in full.
- 2Allow group or virtual net metering for every type of consumer, so rooftop surplus can be shared across a campus.
- 3Compensate generators for curtailment.
- 4Let net-metered and open access connections sit side by side.
- 5Value land fairly and compensate right of way.
