New research has now firmly established that on an LCOE basis, renewables are now significantly cheaper than new coal, and cheaper than the variable costs of one half to one quarter of the existing installed coal capacity.
8From an economic perspective, it would make sense to substitute new renewables for existing coal, even if sunk capital costs were treated as given (as is the case with current contract structure based on a two-part tariff).
8But coal usage in the power sector is not peaking any time soon.

It has been another tough year for the hydropower segment. Capacity additions in the last fiscal were less than even 1 GW and the segment missed the annual target by almost 40 per cent.
8With around 45 GW of installed capacity, its current share in the total installed capacity has been reduced to just around 13 per cent, much below that of renewables (at over 20 per cent).
8While there have been discussions on getting hydro back on the policy agenda, the segment is yet to witness any significant development. The new hydropower policy, which promises to address a number of challenges, is yet to be announced. Among other things, it proposes to declare hydro as a renewable energy source, remove restrictive clauses like mandatory free power sales to states and provide softer loans for such projects for longer periods.

There are many reasons why GAIL's plea for a uniform tariff, particularly when it comes to considering the Hazira-Vijaipur-Jagdishput (HBJ) and the subsequent Gas Rehabilitation and Expansion Plan (GREP, which expanded the capacity of the HBJ pipeline along with a new 36-inch pipeline from Vijaipur to Dadri, along with the HBJ-GREP Upgradation Plan, involving the installation of parallel lines from Vijaipur to Dadri and Dahej-Vijaipur, as a single pipeline network, makes sense for one set of customers and not to others.
