Small renewable energy projects installed by consumers are set to get a boost as the government has modified the proposed growth trajectory of renewable energy purchase obligations for distribution companies and open access consumers, and made it more stringent. A new segment called ‘distributed renewable energy’ has been introduced. Renewable energy projects with capacity of less than 10 megawatt (MW) installed by consumers under any arrangement will qualify for renewable purchase obligation from the distributed renewable energy segment. Purchase obligation for new wind energy projects stands at 0.67% of total energy used for FY25. For FY30, it is at 3.48%.
