Regulatory Approach

Governance-Regulation compact
3
Gujarat has taken significant initiatives in the past to harness solar energy
GERC is the first State Regulatory Commission to issue a comprehensive tariff order on solar energy
GERC is the first SERC to provide for Renewable Energy Certificates in its Regulations on procurement of energy from renewable sources
First project for REC Mechanism has been registered in Gujarat.
Gujarat is on only state to have Solar Power generation capacity in triple digit.

Solar Energy – Advantage Gujarat
• Solar radiation : 5.5 to 6.0 kWh/Sq.m/day with 330 sunny days / year
• Land : 14.40 Million Acres of uniquely positioned waste land in area of high solar radiation
• Water: Narmada water available in Northern part of state having high solar radiation
• Transmission grid : Gujarat have densest transmission network
• Infrastructure: 74,000 Km long road network
• Gas Grid: 2200 Kms long gas grid
• Cut Transportation costs for conventional fuels
• Distributed Generation – so helps in reducing T&D Losses6

The sun is the ultimate source of energy and life on earth. It provides us with a potentially unlimited amount of free, albeit intermittent energy without emitting CO2.
1 year of current fossil fuel use (year 2008) took the earth one million years to store.
The sun can be seen as a huge nuclear radiator with radiating power of 300 million megawatt.
Solar PV provides power which focus demand only in most countries
Solar Power Potential• High Solar Isolation levels in India• The North Western Part of India
(Gujarat & Rajasthan) gets high levels of solar radiations, almost throughout the year.

The salient features of the solar tariff order No. 1 of 2012 are as under:
• The control period for the proposed tariff is from 29 th January, 2012 to 31st March, 2015. • The separate tariff determined and proposed by the Commission for (i) Solar PV MW based
power projects (ii) Solar PV KW based rooftop power projects and (iii) solar thermal based power projects.
• In view of declining trend in the prices of Solar PV globally, the Commission has decided to reduce the tariff by 7% per year during the second and third years of the control period.
• Solar Power Projects established with only new Plants and Machinery would be eligible for the benefit of tariff determined within the scope of this solar tariff order.
• No cross-subsidy surcharges would be levied in case of third-party sale by the Solar Power Projects
• The Intra-state ABT order will not be applicable to solar power generation projects. Considering the nature of solar energy, all solar energy power plants will be considered as ‘must-run’ facilities, and the power generated from such power plants will be kept out from the merit order dispatch principles
• In order to promote KW scale rooftop solar projects, no wheeling charges shall apply for wheeling of power generated by rooftop power projects as such projects decrease the transmission and distribution losses for the utility, and increase the efficiency of the grid.
• The order also contains the relevant commercial aspects such as transmission charges, wheeling charges, security deposit and sharing of CDM (Clean Development Mechanism) benefits.

GERC’s Renewable Purchase Regulations
All the solar power plants are followed the European standard. GERC has also been promoting renewable energy particularly in the area of wind. In the case of wind power sector Gujarat is growing by 270% after the state of Tamilnadu.
GERC (Power Procurement from Renewable Sources), Regulations 2010
Regulations Notified Specific RPPO for Solar For Renewable Energy Certificates (REC), this would enable the
obligated entities to fullfil their statutory requirement and also encourage setting up of such renewable sources plants in the State of Gujarat. GEDA is the nodal agency – notified by GERC

Final Thought
Goal is to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels.
Currently, maximum percentage of our electrical power is generated by coal-burning and nuclear power plants.
Mitigates the effects of acid rain, carbon dioxide, and other impacts of burning coal and counters risks associated with nuclear energy.
pollution free, indefinitely sustainable.
