Falling Solar Tariffs Bring Opportunities Galore, But Present Challenges Too

Falling solar tariffs have certainly buoyed the Indian solar industry, and solar installations are expected to grow at a rapid pace this year. The recent bid of Rs 2.97/KWh for the Rewa mega project has created a new benchmark for the solar sector. With this, solar power in India has already achieved coal parity, something which not many were expecting before 2019.

India's Hydro Sector Needs An Impetus In 2017

The government of India has put in efforts to bring in reforms in transmission and distribution in India aiming at 24x7 electricity for all by 2021. There are also efforts to bring in similar reforms in India’s hydropower sector, which has been ailing for over 4-5 years now. India’s installed hydro base has remained in the 40k MW for the last 4 years with very incremental capacity additions. The renewables sector (solar and wind) have grown over 87% in the last decade while hydro caught up with only a meagre comparative increase of 28%.

Power Watch India の記事をすべて読む

Power Watch India Magazine Description:

These are exciting times for the Indian power sector. Reform and restructuring have started taking shape in a sector that was traditionally a bastion of the state. Major institutions such as regulatory authorities and Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL) have been set up, and activities such as power trading kick started. While progress has been significant, a lot remains to be accomplished. This is where PowerWatch India (PWI) comes in as a magazine. For a sector where private equity and the private sector's active participation have just about started flowing in, it is very important for all stakeholders to have access to accurate, up-to-date information for making the right value decisions. As a stakeholder in the sector itself - we do not like to call ourselves a magazine - PWI seeks to position itself as an industry player, catalyzing progress in India-s energy space at every step. This is a vision we seek to share with every one of our readers - a vision that will take us forward in establishing a unique identity for ourselves.
