					</table>The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (<a href="https://mnre.gov.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MNRE</a>) has clarified that residential rooftop solar installations with battery storage are also eligible for Central Financial Assistance (CFA) under the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana.
The ministry reiterated the operational guidelines <a href="https://www.mercomindia.com/operational-guidelines-pm-surya-ghar-program" target="_blank" rel="noopener">notified</a> in June 2024, which said rooftop solar installations include additional technology components such as small wind hybrids, battery storage, and solar tracker systems.
It said hybrid inverters could also be installed per provisions issued by the State Electricity Regulatory Commissions for rooftop solar projects under the program.
Further, the ministry also pointed out that consumers are not mandated to provide photographs of the projects in the presence of the consumer. Only geotagged photographs of the projects should be uploaded on the national portal.
The ministry said distribution companies (DISCOM) must allow the installation of solar inverters with capacities up to the sanctioned connected load or up to a capacity permitted under the respective regulations for the installation of rooftop solar projects, even if the capacity of solar modules being installed by residential consumers is lower.
This will help consumers enhance the capacity at a later stage, as allowed under the state regulations, without changing the solar inverter.
Earlier, MNRE <a href="https://www.mercomindia.com/mnre-launches-to-fund-rooftop-solar-innovation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">launched</a> a ₹5 billion (~$59.7 million) program to fund rooftop solar innovation. The program aims to identify and fund groundbreaking innovations in business models and technical deployments of rooftop solar systems.
In July, the ministry <a href="https://www.mercomindia.com/mnre-guidelines-incentives-discoms-pm-surya" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> incentives worth ₹49.5 billion (~$591.69 million) to provide resources to DISCOMs for information awareness programs, create mechanisms to ensure timely approvals, achieve implementation targets, ensure timely availability of net meters, increase rooftop solar installations on government buildings, and incentivize field-level staff.

The South Delhi Municipal Corporation (<a href="http://mcdonline.gov.in/tri/sdmc_mcdportal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">SDMC</a>) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Indian Oil and NTPC Limited to develop a demonstration waste-to-energy project at the Okhla landfill site in Delhi.
This project will use gasification technology to process about 17,500 tons of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) per year. Combustible components from municipal waste will be used to generate ‘syngas’ which will then be used to generate electricity.
Biomass gasification refers to the process of converting solid biomass fuel into a combustible gas, called “producer gas,” which is then used to produce power.
“Solid waste management is a big challenge in the national capital. The city can process only half of its waste. The commissioning of such plants would not only provide a clean and environment-friendly way to handle solid waste but also generate gas and manure,” said Anil Baijal, Lt. Governor of Delhi.
The Minister of Power, R.K. Singh, who was also present for the signing, said that the Ministry would support such projects, regardless of the cost of the production of gas from them. He said that technology used in the Delhi project would result in fewer emissions, and also provide usable residues.
The gas generation from waste will also help in cutting imports of petroleum products and saving precious foreign exchange, noted Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas &amp; Steel, Dharmendra Pradhan
In March, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy <a href="https://mercomindia.com/mnre-municipal-solid-waste-to-energy-program-guidelines/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">issued</a> revised guidelines for its waste to energy program. One new addition to the guidelines is the inclusion of municipal solid waste-based projects, based on the clarification by the Department of Expenditure.
Last year, NTPC Limited and East Delhi Municipal Corporation <a href="https://mercomindia.com/ntpc-edmc-jv-waste-to-energy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">joined hands</a> to form a joint venture company to harness municipal waste into green energy. As per the terms and conditions of the proposed JV, NTPC and EDMC will have a 74:26 equity involvement, respectively. The JV aims to develop and operate a state-of-the-art integrated waste management and energy generation facility.
Then, it was also <a href="https://mercomindia.com/delhi-metro-power-waste-to-energy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reported</a> that Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (<a href="http://www.delhimetrorail.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">DMRC</a>) started utilizing power from a 12 MW waste to energy project set up by the East Delhi Waste Processing Company Limited in Gazipur, Uttar Pradesh. This was the first of a kind initiative where a Metro Rail company in India is receiving power from a waste to energy project. A total of 2 MW capacity will be supplied to the DMRC through this facility.

The <a href="https://ens.dk/en" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Danish Energy Agency</a> has announced that India’s Ministry of Power (<a href="https://powermin.nic.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">MoP</a>) and the Danish Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Utilities, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to help India work towards its target to install 450 GW of renewable capacity by 2030.
Through the memorandum, the countries plan to speed up the green energy transition in India for over five years. This new collaboration between the energy agencies of both countries is called the India-Denmark Energy Partnership (INDEP).
The INDEP cooperation will focus on the areas of energy planning and scenario modeling, integration of a higher share of renewable energy, power system flexibility, and electricity markets. Its goal is also to facilitate valuable knowledge exchange for the green energy transition in both countries.
“Green energy transition can help kickstart economies after the COVID-19 pandemic. The choices we take now to restart our economies will determine our ability to create new and permanent jobs and mitigate the impacts of pollution,” said Freddy Svane, the ambassador to Denmark.
The Indo-Danish cooperation can help green energy transition to deliver jobs and economic growth while also ensuring that our energy systems are modernized, more resilient, and less polluting,” Svane added.
Last year, Mercom <a href="https://mercomindia.com/india-and-denmark-offshore-wind-sector/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">reported</a> that the Union Cabinet approved a cooperation agreement between the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy of India (MNRE) and Denmark’s Ministry for Energy, Utilities, and Climate in offshore wind energy. The Cabinet had approved a letter of intent to establish an Indo-Danish Centre of Excellence for renewable energy in India. The Indo-Danish Centre of Excellence in Integrated Renewable Power would work on renewable energy resource assessments with a focus on the onshore and offshore wind; hybridization of wind, solar, hydro and storage technologies, integration of renewable energy, testing, R&amp;D, and skill development.
Previously, India <a href="https://mercomindia.com/india-france-mou-expansion-renewable-energy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">signed</a> an MoU with France to cooperate in the field of renewable energy. Through the agreement, the two countries would work to establish a cooperative institutional relationship to promote technical cooperation on renewable energy issues. Both sides will collaborate on mutually identified areas through research, demonstration, and pilot projects between India’s National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE) and France’s Commissariat aI’Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives.

India and Denmark Sign Pact to Work Towards Renewable Capacity Expansion

The tea planters of North East India have urged the central government to allow 90% subsidy on the installation of solar projects in the tea industry.
The representatives of the tea planters’ body, the North Eastern Tea Association (NETA) have submitted a memorandum to the Union Minister of Commerce and Industry and Railways, Piyush Goyal, apprising him about the demand of the tea growers. The stakeholders also met Darpan Jain, the joint secretary (plantations), Department of Commerce, Government of India in New Delhi.
The memorandum states, “Energy consumption constitutes one of the major costs of the tea industry, the power tariff for the sector is distinctly categorized and is rather high. We request the government to subsidize the power tariff to the tea industry by half for at least a period of five years.”
In its memorandum, NETA stated, “The government may please allow 90% subsidy on the installation of solar projects in the tea industry, as is being done in case of educational institutions, etc. This will not only encourage the industry to produce the energy required by them but will also enable them to sell the additional energy and generate revenue. All tea estates have wastelands that are not suitable for agricultural activity. This fallow land can be utilized to install solar photovoltaic panels and generate solar power.”
Speaking to Mercom from New Delhi, NETA adviser, Bidyananda Barkakoty said, “The tea industry is going through a rough phase. If we can install solar panels on fallow lands of the tea gardens, then we can not only generate power to run the tea estate, but the excess power can also be sold which will ease our financial problem.”
Assam produces nearly 630 million kilos of tea per annum.
Citing an example, Barkakoty stated that in Danguajhar Tea Garden in West Bengal, the consumption of electricity is approximately 70 kWh/kilo of tea made but for the tea garden that produces one million kilos of CTC (tea produced by using crush, tear, and curl method) the consumption is nearly 0.90 kWh/kg.
“The electricity rate in West Bengal, including tariff rates, electricity duty, and meter rent comes to ₹11 ($0.15)/kWh. So, the electricity charge for CTC totals to ₹9.90 ($0.14)/kilo,” he added.
Earlier this year, Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal <a href="https://mercomindia.com/assam-foundation-70-mw-solar-park/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">laid the foundation</a> stone of the 70 MW Amguri Solar Park in Sivasagar district. The Assam Power Generation Corporation Ltd (<a href="http://www.apgcl.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">APGCL</a>) had <a href="https://mercomindia.com/assam-calls-develop-70-mw-solar-amguri/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">issued</a> a Request for Proposal for the development the grid-connected solar photovoltaic projects in Amguri Solar Park in the state in January 2019.
The state is slowly warming up to the idea of maximizing solar power in its energy mix.
<a href="https://mercomindia.com/assam-tender-rooftop-solar-residential/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Just a few weeks ago</a>, the Assam Energy Development Agency (<a href="https://aeda.assam.gov.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">AEDA</a>) had issued a tender to set up 8 MW of rooftop solar projects with the net metering facility. The rooftop solar projects will be developed under CAPEX mode. All the projects will be set up for residential customers. The bid-submission deadline is August 29, 2019.
Assam produces approx. 630 million kgs of tea per annum.
According to Barkakoty, in a study conducted in Danguajhar Tea Garden, the consumption of electricity is approx.. 70 unit/kg of tea made but the tea garden that produces 10 lakhs of CTC (tea produced by using crush, tear, and curl method) is .90 unit/kg of tea made. “The electricity rate in West Bengal including tariffs rate and electricity duty and meter rent comes to ₹11 (~$0.15)/ unit. So, the electricity charge for CTC  totals to ₹9.90 (~$0.14/kg)”

North East Tea Planters Demand 90% Subsidy for Solar Projects in Tea Gardens

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has issued new guidelines incorporating changes in the project timelines for the development of solar parks in the country.
These guidelines are a modification of a memorandum that was issued on February 5, 2019. In March 2019, Mercom reported about the <a href="https://mercomindia.com/mnre-modification-solar-park-program/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">MNRE memorandum</a> proposing modifications to the guidelines issued for its Solar Parks Program. In that memorandum, the MNRE included a new mode (Mode-7) for development of renewable energy parks inclusive of hybrid, solar and wind energy. It also addressed issues like power evacuation and land availability for projects.
The modifications state that solar parks approved in and after FY 2017-18 under Phase II of the Solar Park Program will be completed in two years from the date of the in-principal approval or one year from February 5, 2019, whichever comes later.
In the event of a breach of a deadline, the central grants allocated under the program must be returned with interest. In certain exceptions, extensions of the timelines can be granted in instances where the solar power developer was chosen through a competitive bidding procedure with land allocated in the solar park. In this instance, financial closure should be completed before the deadline of the solar project ends. An assurance that the solar park will generate electricity is also a pre-requisite, although the time extension will depend on factors like the magnitude of solar projects that are tied up at present.
Under the new draft, if the solar park is canceled at any stage and funds have been released as per the earlier program, the recovery may be executed in the following manner: An adjustment can be made against any other dues that are pending for the same purpose with the developer.  The amount can be recovered from lease, rent, and operation and maintenance charges. The project developer will deposit the amount with the government.
Release of central financial assistance:
As per the order dated May 22, 2019, the CFA of ₹1.2 million (~$ 174,000)/MW will be released to the developer after the issue of the letter of award (LOA). In this instance, the solar developer should have fulfilled two criteria: The LoA for the solar projects should have been issued by SECI or NTPC or MNRE and the administrative guidelines mentioned in the initial solar park program notice should be adhered.
Solar parks in India were designed to reduce bottlenecks and bring down large-scale project development costs by the government allocating land and providing transmission infrastructure, a challenge when developing projects privately.
Earlier, the <a href="https://mercomindia.com/mnre-land-owning-criteria-solar-park/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">MNRE</a> had come out with a memorandum amending provisions of its solar park program for Central Public Sector Undertaking units.

Central Grants to be Repaid with Interest If Solar Parks Are Not Developed on Time

The Ministry of Finance has issued a new memorandum clarifying that only goods specifically classified under tariff item 8541 40 11 (solar cells whether or not assembled in modules or panels) will be subject to the safeguard duty.
Recent confusion arose as the <a href="http://www.cbic.gov.in/resources/htdocs-cbec/customs/cs-act/notifications/notfns-2018/cs-sg2018/cssg01-2018.pdf;jsessionid=D2C0EE198678C1273AD26AF2280F4437" target="_blank" rel="noopener">earlier notification</a> No. 1/2018-Customs (SG), issued on July 30, 2018 said that &#8220;solar cells whether or not assembled in modules or panels”  falling under heading 8541 or tariff item 8541 40 11 of the first schedule to the Customs Tariff Act, 1975 will attract the safeguard duty.
There are many items, other than solar cells and modules, that are classified under heading 8541 in the customs tariff act, such as: diodes, transistors and similar semiconductor devices, photosensitive semiconductor devices, including photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled in modules or made up into panels, light emitting diodes (led), and mounted piezoelectric crystals.
After the imposition of the safeguard duty, the port systems were detecting any bill of entry filed under heading 8541 and sending it to the accessing officer to check the levy of the safeguard duty on that item. This was creating confusion, as other commodities were also sent for evaluation.
Therefore, the department of revenue, under the Ministry of Finance, circulated a memorandum clarifying that since the goods are specifically classified under tariff item 8541 40 11, only this tariff item should be subject to system intervention and sent for safeguard evaluation.
Currently, all these goods are being accessed provisionally following the instruction of Madras High Court.
<a href="https://mercomindia.com/madras-court-customs-solar-modules-safeguard/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mercom reported earlier that</a> the Madras High Court had instructed customs officials at the Chennai port to provisionally release a module shipment without paying the safeguard duty. The court had asked customs authorities to make a provisional assessment of the safeguard duty payable in the event of upholding the notification and company to furnish a bond.
<a href="https://mercomindia.com/safeguard-duty-25-percent-solar/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Recently</a>, the Ministry of Finance had announced the levy of a 25 percent safeguard duty based on the final <a href="https://mercomindia.com/25-percent-dgtr-safeguard-duty-recommendation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recommendations</a> proposed by the <a href="http://www.dgtr.gov.in/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DGTR</a>. The decision, which caught the industry off guard, was then challenged by solar developers filing a petition at Orissa High Court.
<a href="https://mercomindia.com/orissa-court-solar-safeguard-duty-hearing/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In the latest development</a>, the Orissa High Court fixed September 19, 2018 as the next date of hearing for the case. This means the safeguard duty imposition will be on hold until that date.
