MNRE asks Haryana to honour renewable energy contracts
BENGALURU: The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy has urged Haryana to honour signed renewable energy contracts and provide them the connectivity they need to start transmitting power.
In recent months, Haryana has been reluctant to give connectivity to 1000 MW of ‘open access’ solar projects whose construction it had earlier okayed. As a result, these projects are being denied formal approval, industry sources told ET.
Open access projects are those where developers supply power to customers directly and not to a power distribution company (discom).
