The following are the highlights in the renewable energy front:
8Solar installations to reach approximately 10 GW in calendar year in 2017 and cumulative solar installations topped 15 GW in August 2017
8Total solar installations in CY 2017 reached 5.5 GW in August
8Cumulative solar rooftop installations in India have now surpassed 1 GW. Mercom expects to see about approximately 855 MW in rooftop installations this year
8The current pipeline for utility-scale projects in various stages of construction is 13.3 GW, with 5.8 GW of tenders pending auction
8So far this year, 6.6 GW have been tendered, 4.4 GW have been auctioned, and around 1.8 GW have been cancelled
8Solar tariffs breached Rs 2.50 (~$0.038)/kWh for the first time during Q2 2017, making solar cheaper than thermal power in some cases
8Solar power accounted for 13.5 billion units of total electricity produced in India during the financial year (FY) 2016-17, up from 7.4 billion units in FY2015-16
8Renewables comprise 18 percent of India's total installed capacity, with solar accounting for nearly 4.5 percent. Among renewables, solar accounts for almost 25 percent of installed capacity
8After falling by approximately 5 percent in the second quarter of 2017, for the first time in years, the average selling price (ASP) for chinese modules had increased quarter-over-quarter by almost 12 percent as of August 2017 compared to Q2 2017
8The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has proposed the development of 7.5 GW of solar using domestic content under the CPSU Phase 2 program
8MNRE issued final guidelines for solar auctions that included some important changes to attract low bids from developers
8Significant challenges facing the industry include the GST, a pending anti-dumping decision, and DISCOMs stalling auctions to get lower rates
8Considering the current challenges, that installations could drop in 2018 by more than 20 percent
8The Office of the Directorate General of Anti-dumping & Allied Duties (DGAD) India has initiated an investigation into imported solar cells originating in or exported from China, Taiwan, and Malaysia. Initial recommendations from DGAD could take upto 12 months however

The website illustrates here an example of how the current merit order power purchase system has created a technological nightmare for NTPC's gas fired plants last week.
8A sudden order was sent from the regional load dispatch centre to fire up the stations on liquid fuel due to heavy demand
8Within hours of the start-up, the stations were told to backdown as the demand seems to have suddenly disappeared.
8NTPC never had the time to team up the gas with the steam turbines as a result

8Dual feed power plants -- based on gas or diesel -- are still bankable, with 25-year PPAs
8But the future continues to remain uncertain, so find out more how this Indian company is betting on Bangladesh with a new 200 MW dual feed power plant
Click on Reports for more Details
There is a suggestion to create a new framework surrounding PPAs could consider a mechanism to compensate for the plant fixed cost, especially for coal units during the transition to
a higher-RE future, in which they would be scheduled less
8It must also address the question of how to compensate for flexibility that will be needed to manage the increase in variability and uncertainty from higher levels of RE.
8The challenge is to develop a new framework that can simultaneously address legacy generating plants during the transition to a higher-RE future, plants that come online during the transition and plants that will be developed after the transition has largely occurred.
8The solution to this issue is also related to whether India moves to more coordinated system operation and, if so, whether this is facilitated by some type of wholesale power market or a coordinating entity.
8Under a market-based construct, PPAs need to be developed with market design as a backdrop.
8In either case, however, PPA structures (and market designs) can be revised to recognize, compensate, and incentivize the characteristics that would be needed to operate the power system under a high level of RE.
8These characteristics include minimum operating levels, ramping, and short start-up, shutdown, and minimum up-/down-times

An analysis suggest that after the spurt in renewable capacity creation, retiring as much as 46,000 MW of coal based capacity will not adversely affect the system flexibility in India.
8A road map for doing so has been drawn up
8Evidently by 2022, there will be a sharp drop in coal and gas generation
8There is no even ambitious talk, of going for a 250 GW RE system by 2022

There are now projections that India will able to push ahead and establish 60 GW of wind and 100 GW of solar capacity by 2022 even though the base at the beginning of 2017 was only from 29 GW wind and 9 GW solar at the beginning of 2017.
8The curtailment of renewable energy production can be kept at a minimal level if certain steps are taken to make India's energy system more flexible.
8The onus will be shifted to make thermal power plants more flexible.
A series of policy steps have been suggested and these include:
8Comprehensive central and state levels comprehensive regulations which will include minimum generation levels, ramp rates, and minimum up and down times (current CERC regulation applies to central generators but not state generators).
8Policies will be needed to encourage states to match or exceed CERC guidelines for central generators that require 55% minimum operating levels for coal plants and then go on to evaluate on plant-by-plant basis further reductions.
8Provide training curricula that help coal plant operators minimize damage from cycling.

JSW Energy has 4500 MW of power generation assets in India
8Even in today's difficult times, the company hopes to eventually want to own assets that will total up to 10,000 MW
8The industry has been characterized by weak power demand, low offtake, declining tariffs and rising cost of imports. The rising cost of imported coal has adversely impacted its standalone business which sells largely in the merchant market and is dependent on imported coal.
8So how is JSW coping?
8Cost optimization is a way out
8And it plans to use domestic coal in its Vijayanagar and Ratnagiri plants
8It is also trying hard to tie-up its open generation capacity through different offtake arrangements, including PPAs with group captives and discoms

GMR doesn't seem to be impressed by the ongoing reforms in the power sector
8The company claims that policies will be needed to be quickly evolved to ensure that commissioned but stranded power capacity, which stands at more than 33 GW (due to lack of fuel) will have to be handled quickly or else stranded assets will pile up to around Rs 100,000 crore.
8The financial restructuring of the state distribution companies under UDAY has been kicked off but its success is intertwined with various performance improvement targets and such improvements will take more time to fructify.
8Meanwhile, GMR seems to be struggling hard to get its gas-based power plants functioning against a punishing policy regime
8Its coal based power plants also face a plethora of problems
8The focus is on the company's hydro power projects, but getting off the ground is no easy task.

If you have a good renewable power project, you can be guaranteed years of solid returns.
8A case at point is a sample wind power project.
8The capacity is around 100 MW and the PPA is for a period of 25 years.
8The PPA allows for a must run status subject to the emergency conditions (Must Run Status shall mean Project shall not be directed by GUVNL to shut down or backed down due to variations in the generation/consumption patterns or any commercial parameters, merit order dispatches or existence/apprehension of any other charges or levies related to dispatch or incidental thereto except Force Majeure Events and Emergency).
8For the past 1.5 years, payments are coming in regularly within a week from the invoice date
8This seems to be an ideal world. Hopefully, that's how it should stay for the next 23 years
