Open access solar capacity addition falls 3.6% to 712 MW in Apr-Jun: Report
The country recorded a 3.6 per cent decline in new installations of open access solar capacity to 712 megawatt (MW) in the June quarter, according to a report by Mercom India.
India had added 739 MW of open access solar capacities in the year-ago period, the research firm said in its ‘Q2 2023 Solar Open Access Market Report’.
However, on a quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q) basis, the capacity addition was 24 per cent higher than the 577 MW in the January-March quarter, the report said.
Open access enables consumers with more than 100 kW sanctioned load to buy cheaper power from the open market.
