New Delhi, Jul 14 () National Solar Energy Federation of India has urged the government to cap tariff from all renewable energy sources at Rs 3 per unit for auctions by state-owned NTPC and Solar Energy Corporation.
The capping will help keeping the renewables tariff lower than Rs 3 per unit.
This will prove to be a remedy for differential treatment of electricity in the country and help in achieving ‘one nation, one grid, one renewable, one price’, according to National Solar Energy Federation of India (NSEFI).
In a recent letter written to Power and New & Renewable Energy Minister R K Singh, NSEFI said, “We propose, ‘One Nation, One Grid, One Renewable, One Price’ concept. This would mean that all prices discovered through various tendering processes of all renewable energy sources conducted by SECI or NTPC in a financial year, shall be bundled together and One price shall be offered to states”.
