From The Managing Director’s Desk

Dear Readers,

I hope that LSI's initiative of knowledge-sharing is adding value to our esteemed readers. In the current issue we dwell on the subject of Renewable Energy Sector of India.

India has more than 150GW of renewable energy potential of which about half is in the form of solar and rest is in the form of wind, small hydropower, biomass etc. Developing renewable energy is likely to help India increase its energy security, reduce the adverse impacts on the local environment, lower its carbon emission, contribute to more balanced regional development and enable its aspirations for leadership in high-technology usage for power generation.

Since 2005 the energy and climate change agenda has universally taken center stage in the domestic and international policy arena. India is well placed to build on this momentum. It has tripled its renewable energy generation capacity in the past five years and currently ranks fifth in the world in terms of total installed renewable energy capacity. The country has established a legal and regulatory framework for sector oversight and has created the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy - a first such Ministry in the world.

Hope you enjoy reading the series!

Raj Kajaria

biomass power projects to ̀ 4.62 crore/MW for the FY2013-14 from ̀ 4.45 crore/MW in the FY2012-13.

Government Initiatives:

lThe GOI has permitted 100% FDI for renewable energy

sector.

Out of the above, PPA's were signed with 21 selected l

depreciation for renewable energy investments.

lPreferential income tax rate of 15% is charged instead of

the standard rate of 30%.

lThe sector has received an exemption from Central Sales

Tax.

lThe GOI has allowed customs duty concessions for the

import of material, components and equipment used in renewable energy projects.

lThe sector has also been permitted soft loans for setting up

renewable energy enterprises together with tax holiday of 10 years for biomass power projects.

In General:

lPrivate equity deal value in the renewable energy sector

was $325.1 million (`1,765 crore) across 12 deals in CY2012.

lAccording to CERC, the debt equity ratio of 70:30 has to be

maintained for the renewable energy projects.

lIndia and Switzerland have agreed to explore avenues to

increase cooperation in the field of renewable energy as the European country is appearing keen to invest in the sector.

The sector has been allowed up to 80% accelerated

renewable energy sources. These attributes are unbundled from the physical electricity and the two products, the certificate and the electricity, are sold or traded separately.

lThere are two categories of RECs:

a. Solar certificate issued to eligible entities for generation of electricity based on solar as renewable energy source.

b. Non-solar certificate issued to eligible entities for generation of electricity based on renewable energy source other than solar.

lThe proposed 30 GW renewable energy generation

RECs represent the attributes of electricity generated from capacity addition during the 12th five-year plan is expected to attract an investment of `2.1 trillion across the value chain of all technologies.

lIntroduction of JNNSM for the promotion of solar power is

expected to drive huge investments in this field as the

Government has set a target to install 20 GW of solar

power by 2020.

lDeveloping renewable energy can help India to increase its

energy security, reduce adverse impacts on the local

environment, lower its carbon intensity, contribute to a

more balanced regional development and realise its

aspirations for leadership in high-technology industries.
