					</table>The Odisha Electricity Regulatory Commission (<a href="https://www.orierc.org/(S(y3vjgwsoyynlx50fznxnieet))/default.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OERC</a>) recently directed the Odisha Power Transmission Corporation (<a href="https://optcl.co.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OPTCL</a>) and Bharat Electronics (<a href="https://bel-india.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BEL</a>) to finalize the contracted capacity for the transmission of power utilizing the transmission network of OPTCL for long-term access.
It directed the parties to amend the transmission capacity access agreement (TCAA) between them.
The state regulator added that BEL could not be exempted from paying under injection charges to GRIDCO if the power injected from its captive power project was less than what was scheduled.
Further, the Commission rejected BEL’s request to grant a net metering mechanism for its 7.5 MW solar captive power project.
The Commission noted that as per the existing net metering and bi-directional metering and their connectivity order, the upper limit of the installed capacity of the solar power project should be 500 kW to avail the benefit of net metering.
In contrast, the installed capacity of BEL’s captive power project was 7.5 MW. Hence the net metering facility was not available for the captive power project.
OPTCL and BEL had filed two separate petitions with the state Commission. OPTCL had sought directions to BEL for the payment of open access charges. BEL had requested the Commission to adjudicate the dispute on the ‘arbitrary, illegal levy and collection’ of various open access charges under the Open Access Regulations 2020.
Background
BEL has a solar captive power project of 7.5 MW capacity at the Ordnance factory, Badmala, in the Bolangir district of Odisha. BEL entered into a  transmission capacity access agreement with OPTCL on August 7, 2018, per OERC Open Access Regulations 2005, to avail open access for its solar power to the ordnance factory for 25 years through the transmission network of OPTCL on payment of long-term open access charges.
OPTCL noted that the agreement nowhere provided that in the case the Open Access Regulations 2005 were repealed, BEL would be governed by the new regulations.
As per the Open Access Regulations 2020, OPTCL had to raise transmission bills to BEL based on its contracted capacity from November 2020.
In the absence of any declared contracted capacity by the captive power generator, OPTCL raised the transmission charge bills to BEL from November 2020, considering the contracted capacity as 7.35 MW for FY 2021, which was the maximum scheduled injection observed during FY 2020.
However, BEL protested this new billing method and suggested OPTCL to raise the transmission charges based on the scheduled generation or the actual wheeled units for the month and continue to pay the transmission charges based on the scheduled injection energy.
BEL submitted that the Commission enforced new Open Access Regulations 2020 by repealing the earlier Open Access Regulations 2005. Regulation 44 of the Open Access Regulations 2020 has a provision for non-applicability of the said regulations on existing open access customers to the intrastate transmission and distribution system where there is an existing agreement.
In light of the above, the levy of revised transmission charges by OPTCL is illegal and has no basis in law.
BEL added that owing to the lack of a banking facility, approximately 3 to 4 MU per annum was being injected by them into the state grid free of cost with undue enrichment of GRIDCO, which caused a loss of revenue.
GRIDCO initially agreed to buy the surplus solar power at ₹4.50 (~$0.055)/kWh for 25 years after the captive consumption by the ordnance factory but refused to purchase the excess solar power.
Further, the captive power generator stated that GRIDCO was levying Deviation Settlement Mechanism (DSM) charges on BEL, which was illegal since the Commission had not formulated any regulations for levying DSM charges.
Commission’s analysis
The Commission observed that the agreement states that the open access transaction between BEL and OPTCL should be governed per the provisions of Open Access Regulations, 2005.
However, per the Open Access Regulations 2020, the transmission charges should be payable based on the contracted capacity for long-term and medium-term open access customers.
Since the term ‘contracted capacity’ had neither been defined in the regulations nor the TCAA, OPTCL had claimed transmission charges based on the contracted capacity of 7.35 MW for FY 2021 and 5 MW for FY 2022 based on the maximum scheduled injection for the previous year and 1.814 MW for the FY 2023. BEL intimated OPTCL to consider a contracted capacity of 1.814 MW for FY 2023.
The Commission noted that it would be prudent to compute the transmission charges for open access transactions by BEL considering the 1.814 MW for FY 2021 and FY 2022. It directed both parties to finalize the contracted power transmission capacity utilizing the transmission network of OPTCL for long-term access and accordingly make amendments to their agreement.
OERC noted that even if it was found that GRIDCO adopted the rates of CERC’s DSM Regulations to impose penalty in case of lesser or higher injection into the grid, in the absence of separate DSM Regulations, the same could not be termed illegal.
BEL could convince GRIDCO to purchase surplus solar power from its captive power project through an agreement at a mutually agreed rate, the Commission said.
It further advised GRIDCO to explore the possibility of entering into PPA with BEL to purchase surplus power from its solar captive power project at a negotiated price, as it may require such power to meet its renewable purchase obligation in the future.
Earlier, OERC had <a href="https://mercomindia.com/odisha-proposes-revisions-deviation-settlement-regulations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">issued</a> the revised draft ‘Deviation, Settlement Mechanism, and Related Matters Regulations, 2022’ to ensure that users of the grid adhere to their schedule of drawal and injection of electricity for the security and stability of the grid.

Technology shift in the solar industry has been happening across the globe. India, a notoriously cost-sensitive market, has also almost entirely <a href="https://mercomindia.com/goodbye-polycrystalline-solar-modules-bifacial/https:/mercomindia.com/goodbye-polycrystalline-solar-modules-bifacial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">moved</a> away from the polycrystalline to the more efficient monocrystalline cells, and more recently, monocrystalline passivated emitter and rear cell (PERC), popularly called the mono PERC.
With the cost gaps and price premiums between these advanced technologies and the conventional ones are quickly shrinking, India has been moving towards more efficient technologies including the bifacial solar modules.
Mercom recently <a href="https://mercomindia.com/mono-perc-bifacial-lead-few-years/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">hosted</a> a webinar on “Module Technologies and Trends Dominating the Indian Solar Market.” The consensus among the webinar participants was that mono PERC and bifacial would have a large market for the next two to three years.
According to Mercom&#8217;s <a href="https://mercomindia.com/product/india-solar-tender-tracker/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">India Solar Tender Tracker</a>, BEL has so far floated tenders for 798,430 solar cells.

According to solar module manufacturers, monocrystalline products can lead to higher yields from solar energy projects. In an <a href="https://mercomindia.com/indian-solar-market-mono-perc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">in-depth report,</a> Mercom analyzed if the Indian solar market is ready to transition to mono PERC cell technology. The consensus in the solar industry is that it is gradually shifting towards monocrystalline cell technology from the more common multi-crystalline cells and modules.

Bharat Electronics Seeks Bidders to Procure Monocrystalline Solar Cells

The Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) has passed a ruling stating that the benefits of net metering are limited to rooftop solar installations of up to 1 MW.
MERC was responding to a petition filed by Bharat Electronics Limited (<a href="http://bel-india.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BEL</a>), a government of India Enterprise under the Ministry of Defence (MoD), requesting clearance for the implementation of 3 MW solar power project with a net metering facility on the Ordinance Ammunition Factory in Khadki (AFK), Pune. The project did not qualify because of its size.
In the case of the BEL project, the 3 MW captive solar system falls under the MERC’s provision for open access. Power generated under open access attracts additional charges such as wheeling charges, a cross-subsidy surcharge, and MSLDC fees, all factors that impact the viability of the project.
MSEDCL, in its submission, maintained that BEL doesn’t meet the criteria of an ‘eligible consumer’ and cannot be entitled for net metering per the existing legal provision, and should be treated as an independent power producer. MERC has also observed that AFK Pune cannot claim exemption from the provisions of Net Metering Regulations, 2015 when a consumer of electricity also becomes a consumer of a particular distribution licensee, it comes under the commission’s regulation and any special treatment cannot be granted.
The commission also stated that a similar petition from Maharashtra Metro Rail Corporation was recently rejected.
In <a href="https://mercomindia.com/maharashtra-electricity-regulatory-commission-proposes-net-metering-changes-rooftop-solar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">July 2017</a>, the MERC proposed changes to the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission, Net Metering for Roof-top Solar Photovoltaic Systems Regulations, 2015. The new regulations are called the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (Net Metering for Rooftop Solar PhotoVoltaic Systems) (First Amendment) Regulations, 2017.
<a href="https://mercomindia.com/bel-inaugurates-16-mw-solar-pv-chennai/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Recently</a>, BEL successfully completed the construction of a 16 MW solar PV project at the Heavy Vehicle Factory (HVF) premises in Avadi locality of Tamil Nadu’s capital city Chennai. The project was inaugurated by Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.

Rooftop Solar Net Metering Only Available for Projects Under 1 MW in Maharashtra

Bharat Electronics Limited (<a href="http://bel-india.in" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BEL</a>), a defence public sector undertaking (PSU), has successfully completed the construction of a 16 MW solar PV project at the Heavy Vehicle Factory (HVF) premises in Avadi locality of Tamil Nadu’s capital city Chennai.
The project was inaugurated by Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, according to a PTI report.
The solar PV project will cater to the captive consumption needs of the HVF and Engine Factory at Avadi. It is spread across 80 acres and has been built at an overall cost of ₹1.05 billion (~$0.016 billion).
Power generated from the project would be fed to the Tamil Nadu Transmission Corporation Ltd&#8217;s (TNTC) 110 kV sub-station. This will lead to annual savings of approximately ₹45.41 million (~$0.67 million).
“Great contribution by Bharat Electronics and Ordnance Factory at Avadi,&#8221; Nirmala Sitharaman tweeted after inaugurating the plant.
With the help of  &#8216;Viability Gap Funding Scheme&#8217;, BEL is working for the energy security of the ordnance factory estates, by developing utility scale grid-connected solar projects.
These projects would help improve the air quality of the region by reducing sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, particulate matter emission, and 26,384 tons carbon dioxide per year.
Tamil Nadu is already one of the top solar states in India with over 1.7 GW of installed solar capacity, according to <a href="https://mercomindia.com/product/india-solar-tender-tracker/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mercom’s India Solar Project Tracker</a>.
<a href="https://mercomindia.com/bel-tenders-solar-projects-under-dcr/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Earlier, Mercom reported</a> that BEL tendered a total of 6 MW (AC) of solar to be developed at three factories in Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, in July 2017.
