I. Renewable Energy Overview

Indias fiscal year runs from Apr 1 to March 31. Thus, FY 2015 (also called fiscal 2015) means Apr 1, 2014 Mar 31, 2015. In Indian documents, FY (fiscal) 2015 is also labeled FY14-15.
The remaining nine months of calendar 2015, i.e. Apr-Dec, belong to fiscal year 2016.
In order to better align with calendar years and make international comparisons more meaningful, in this report, EMIS has chosen to label data by the year in which most of the result occurred.
Unless otherwise stated, in this report, 2014, for example, means the 12 months between Apr 1, 2014 - Mar 31, 2015, or what in India is referred to as FY 2015.
When sources have not provided details on their year labeling policy, year labels in graphs and tables featured in this report appear as provided by the source.

Sector Highlights
Sector dynamics
Indias renewable energy sector witnessed quick expansion in the last decade. Installed capacity almost tripled during the 11th five year plan (20072012), increasing from 7.7GW to more than 24 GW in 2014. The strongest expansion was registered in wind energy capacity addition (increase of
10.3GW), followed by small hydropower plants (up by 1.4GW). Solar power generation also shows good growth potential. Policy switches and
unresolved structural problems have recently deterred sectoral growth. For the 2012-2014 period, the achievement of targets for generation of
renewable energy was 76.7%, 84.2% and 108% for each of the three years. The underperformance in the first two periods was due to
discontinuation of some incentives under the wind power sector and delay in obtaining forest area clearances and court cases in some of the states
under small hydropower sector. With the restoration of the benefits in FY 2015 an overachievement of target was reached.

Challenges
Among the problems in the sector are also the lack of appropriate regulations for trade with renewable energy outside the state of generation and
the inadequate grid connectivity, which hinders fast and full evacuation of the produced power. Regulatory issues include the differences in the
transmission charges among states, difficulties in land acquisition and statutory clearances.
Providing financing at reasonable cost is also a challenge. With about 70% of the funding coming from debt, the average interest rate is above 13%.
Thus the high cost of renewable energy generation relative to other conventional sources turns into important limitation for the sector development.
Active government support programs and the recent inclusion of renewable energy in the priority sectors for credit, might provide decisive liquidity
support.

Ownership
As of April 2015, more than 70% of the aggregated installed power capacity in India is in the public sector (about 30% in the central sector and
about 41% in the state sector). The ownership structure is quite different when it comes to renewables, as almost 90% of the capacity is private
sector owned.
A quarter of the renewable power capacity is installed in Tamil Nadu, 17.8% - in Maharashtra; 14% - in Gujarat; 12.6% - in Karnataka.

The prospects for the sector development are very good, due to the
population dynamics and favourable macroeconomic fundamentals.
The conventional power is experiencing difficulties, due to regulatory
burdens and fuel shortage and renewables are getting more
attractive.
After coming into power in 2014, the current government
acknowledged renewables power as one of the priorities for future
promotion. The energy targets to be reached at the end of the 13th
programing period (i.e. March 2022) were pushed up. The good track
record of the winning party in solar power development resulted in
expectations for quick revival and expansion of the sector and first
signs for upward dynamics in the segment are visible.

Comments
The constantly increasing energy demand in India resulted in strong rise in electricity production. The countrys share in world electricity generation rose
from 3.6% at the beginning of the century to 5.1% in 2014. The increase could have been even stronger in case the government capacity addition targets
had been met.
Almost 60% of the installed capacity is in coal based power plants, which keeps coal as the key fuel for electricity generation. However, the official forecast
for coal demand in FY2017 shows requirement/availability gap of almost 200 mn tonnes, suggesting huge dependence on coal import, possible pressure
on power generation and rising importance of other energy source such as renewables.

The share of renewables in total energy capacity of India stood at


13.1% as at May 2015. The ratio has risen from 2% in 1995.
Nonetheless, renewable sources represent only 2.2% of total energy
generation. The reason is that the capacity factor for renewables is
much lower than for other energy sources like thermal plants.

Renewable energy capacity addition in the 11th Plan (MW)

The renewable energy capacity addition accelerated


significantly in the past years, rising from 7,761 MW in 2006 to
24,503 MW in FY 2011.
The installation of renewable power capacity in the eleventh
five year planning period (Mar 2007-Mar 2012) significantly
surpassed the initial targets. That resulted in setting ambitious
goals for the current period.
The target for the twelfth five-year plan (ending Mar 2017) is
addition of 30,000MW of renewable energy capacity. As of May
2015 (three years into the period) the added capacity stood at
11,273 MW.

Regarding the cost competitiveness of the sector, a recent study by the U.S.-based Climate Policy Initiative and Indian School of Business
stated that compared to imported coal, the cost of wind power is already competitive, thus requiring no additional government support while
the cost of solar power is expected be competitive by 2019.
On the one hand, the solar energy in India currently costs up to 50 % more than power from sources like coal, according to Reuters estimates.

Financing for the power sector rose from 11% to more


than 19% of the total bank lending to industry between
2004 and 2014. As at end April 2015, it represented
21.3% of credit stock, rising by 15.4% yoy in the month.
In regard to lending for renewable power projects, there
used to be no compulsion or incentive for banks to lend to
the specific segment, which often resulted in conventional
power projects (much more developed market) crowding
out the renewable energy ones (developing market and
still relatively riskier). Banks have recently exhausted their
limits to lend to power sector companies (incl. generators
and distribution companies) and have no capital left to
finance renewable energy projects even if they want to.
Therefore, in April 2015, the central bank included
renewable energy in the group of priority sectors, to which
banks are obliged to lend at least 40% of their net credit.
Banks can provide loans up to INR150mn to borrowers for
solar, biomass, wind, and small hydropower generation,
and also for renewable energy based public utilities like
street lighting systems and remote village electrification.
For individual households, the loan limit has been set
to INR 1mn per borrower. There are no requirements for
preferential interest rates to the priority sectors.
In February 2015, Yes Bank made the first green bond
issue in India, attracting INR 5bn, which would be lent to
renewable energy projects. In March 2015, Indias ExportImport Bank sold USD 500mn of green dollar bonds and,
according to Clean Technica, is expected to issue another
USD 1,000mn in the following 2 to 5 years.
Another option for financing is attracting foreign direct
investors. As much as 100% of the funding for renewable
projects is allowed through the automatic route i.e. without
official approval.

For the targeted total power capacity addition of about


100,000 MW in the 12th plan, the additional workforce
requirement is estimated at 400,000 workers of whom
about need to be technicians. An outlay of INR 41.1
bn has been proposed for their training.
The total manpower in the energy sector at the end of
the 12th period (2016) is estimated at 1.4 mn people.
Another 550,000 would be required in the 13th Plan and
in FY2022 the employed in the sector is forecasted at
1.79 million.

Mechanism

The Energy Act combined several existing pieces of legislation and its primary
goal was to accelerate growth of the power sector.
With the Energy Conservation Act 2001 was put focus on energy efficiency,
through introducing standards, labeling and energy conservation building
codes.

The Integrated Energy Policy: Report of the Expert Committee, published in


late 2006, offers a framework for all policies regarding production, distribution
and usage of energy resources. It examines the renewable sector regulatory
framework emphasizing the importance of shifting from capital subsidies
towards performance incentives.

The objective of the RRF includes forecasting of wind and solar power
generation, promoting bilateral trading of renewable energy, supporting the
investment in renewable energy projects and encouraging wind and solar
producers to participate in scheduling, among others.
The implementation of the RRF mechanism is delayed.

Like the IEP and RRF,


there are many reports
and plans on the role of
the renewable sources in
energy generation, but
most of them have not
met the required political
commitment for
implementation.
The regulatory base for
renewables is spread in
different acts. There is
no unified law that sets a
full framework for
renewable energy
development in India.
Many of the regulation
applicable for
renewables are effective
also for conventional
power generation, thus
reducing the incentive for
creating greener power
sector.

Government Policy (contd)

How does the


system
work?

RECs

RPOs

The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) determines the tariffs for renewable energy based power
generation applicable to central government power stations and inter-state power transmission. Most of the producers are
however covered by the tariffs determined by the State Electricity Regulatory Commissions (SERC). SERC set the tariff
for all renewable energy projects across the states. The incumbent power Distribution Companies (DISCOM) provide grid
connectivity to the renewable energy project sites, which usually are situated in remote locations away from major load
centers.
The Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) were introduced in 2010 and are used for inter-state trading of renewable
power. They are used as a proof of the generation of 1MW renewable energy. The certificates can be traded through a
power exchange platform within price range set by CERS and are differentiated into solar and non-solar renewable
sources. Those certificates are time-constrained, being effective only for 365 days, which makes them difficult to get
accepted by financial institutions. The supply of energy on the REC market has increased recently, but the effectiveness of
the market (in terms of sold REC) is still low, as the purchases by DISCOM is minimal.

DISCOMs and some large power consumers are obliged to purchase minimum ratio of their total power from renewable
sources. That percentage is called Renewable purchase obligation (RPO). The long-term objective for India is RPO to
reach 15% by FY2020, but SERC set the annual targets for solar and non-solar sources among different states and thus
determine the mid-term RPO trajectory. There are, however, substantial problems with the compliance as the entities in the
majority of the states continue to remain below the RPO trajectory. In some states there was even a reduction in the PRO
targets in order to accommodate the concerns of utilities. One of the reason for the lack of demand in renewable energy is
the financial difficulties (high debt) of the state-owned distribution companies.
The discussion of possible introduction of penalties on DISCOMs as a measure to tackle the non-compliance is another
evidence that renewable energy market is still not fully operational in India.

II. Wind Energy

Indias fiscal year runs from Apr 1 to March 31. Thus, FY 2015 (also called fiscal 2015) means Apr 1, 2014 Mar 31, 2015. In Indian documents, FY (fiscal) 2015 is also labeled FY14-15.
The remaining nine months of calendar 2015, i.e. Apr-Dec, belong to fiscal year 2016.
In order to better align with calendar years and make international comparisons more meaningful, in this report, EMIS has chosen to label data by the year in which most of the result occurred.
Unless otherwise stated, in this report, 2014, for example, means the 12 months between Apr 1, 2014 - Mar 31, 2015, or what in India is referred to as FY 2015.
When sources have not provided details on their year labeling policy, year labels in graphs and tables featured in this report appear as provided by the source.

Wind Power Sector Highlights

Sector
overview

India, along with China, is among the countries with the highest wind capacity addition growth on the global market
in the past five years. Installed capacity almost quadrupled since 2006 from 6.3 GW to 22.4 GW in 2014. After
overachievements during the 10th and 11th plans, the12th plan for 2012-2016 has a reference target of 15GW.
Another scenario envisages that the capacity could reach 20GW , while 25GW is set as an aspirational target.
In India, as well as in many other countries with developing renewable energy markets, due to the unreliability of
wind power, its growing share target in the electricity mix presents operational challenges to grid operators. The
underdeveloped transmission system in the country could be a big spur for the segment development.

Market
segmentation

Indias wind industry was highly fragmented. When the market started developing, as a result of the tax incentives
and other financial benefits offered by the government, many companies entered the segment. For good part of
them the wind power generation was not a core activity and most of the producers did not have much experience in
the field, but were attracted by the possibility of tax depreciation benefits.
In the last years, there is a clear trend towards selling wind assets to generate cash and exit the non-core activities.
There is a surge of acquisitions of small wind power plants and a concentration of the market is underway.
According to a Bloomberg report, wind utilities, such as Goldman Sachs-backed ReNew Wind Power Pvt., Morgan
Stanley-backed Continuum Wind Energy Pte and IDFC Ltd.s Green Infra Ltd. unit are seeking to amass GW-scale
portfolios to reduce generation costs, in some cases to lower than those for new coal-based power projects.

Government Policy

NWEM

Wind power accounts for most of the renewables energy generation in India with a share of about 70%.
In early June 2014, the government announced it will support the development of the segment by launching National Wind
Energy Mission (NWEM). The NWEM was supposed to start operating in mid-2014. It is, however, still awaiting the formal
consent from the Prime Minister. NWEM will offer investment incentives, identify high wind power potential zones, ease
land clearances and regulate tariffs. It will also aim at strengthening the grid infrastructure.

Incentive

For many years, wind power government incentives have played a major role in the wind power growth. The industry could avail of
both accelerated depreciation (AD) and generation-based incentives (GBI). AD was a capital incentive, which offered faster
depreciation of 80% in the first year of the power machinery operation. GBI is an example of performance incentive. The scheme
offers support of INR 10mn for every MW of generated wind energy between the fourth and tenth year of the projects operation.
Both schemes were withdrawn in 2012 and only GBI was re-included in the budget in 2013 and extended till Mar 2017 (end of the 12th
planning period). According to market sources, the removal of subsidies, along with inadequate grid infrastructure for power
evacuation and delays in payments by DISCOM have affected negatively the capacity addition in the past two years.

IREDA

Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (IREDA) was established by the government as an independent
specialised Public Sector undertaking under the renewable energy ministry. It is a public limited company, whose main goal
is to translate the policies of government of India into action through promoting, developing and financing new and
renewable sources of energy (NRSE) technologies.
As of March 2014, IREDA held about 8% of total wind power capacity in India.

Government Policy (contd)

Budget for
FY 2015-2016

The renewable energy ministry has revised the target for renewable energy to 175,000 MW by 2022, which includes
60,000 MW of wind power.
The following changes came into effect as of 1st March 2015.
Tariff rate of BCD on iron and steel and articles of iron or steel has been increased from 10% to 15%. The effective rate
remains the same.
For claiming BCD and CVD exemption on import of goods for mega power projects, bank guarantee will now be
required to be submitted for an extended period of 66 months instead of earlier 36 months.
Effective median excise duty rate increased from 12.36 % to 12.50 %.
Excise Duty exemption granted on pig iron SG grade and ferro-silicon-magnesium for manufacture of cast components
of wind operated electricity generators, subject to approval by the renewable energy ministry.
Basic customs duty on active energy controller (AEC) for use in the manufacture of renewable power systems (RPS)
inverters is being reduced to 5 % subject to certification by the renewable energy ministry.
The following changes came into effect with the enactment of finance bill.
Increase in clean energy cess from INR100 to INR200 per ton on coal, lignite and peat.
Effective service tax is proposed to be increased from 12.36% to 14%.
An enabling provision proposed to be incorporated in finance act for levying a 2 % Swachh Bharat cess on the value of
service on specific services.

According to the Center for Wind Energy Technology,


Indias wind power potential is 102,778 MW at 80
meters height at 2% land availability (2011).
If that potential is fully utilised, wind sources would
provide only about 8% of the forecast electricity
demand in 2022 (end of the 13th Plan) and 5% of the
demand in 2035.
Another research on wind potential, made by the
US-based Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory ,
suggests capacity ranging from 2,006 GW at 80
meters to 3,121 GW at 120 meters. renewable
energy ministry has signed a memorandum of
understanding with the laboratory for co-work on the
estimation of wind resource potential and grid
integration.
With many of the older wind turbines being lowcapacity ones, another measure for energy
generation increase is the repowering (replacement
with modern large capacity machines). There are,
however, no policy guidelines or incentives on the
subject.

Due to its geographic location, India has about 300 days of sunshine per annum, average daily solar radiation of 4-6
kWh per sq meter and average annual temperatures between 25C and 27C. These provide for Indias very good
solar power potential. The sunniest territories are on the southeastern coast (Calcutta Madras).
Solar energy in the country includes photovoltaic energy (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP or solar thermal
power). Currently, the solar power generation in India is predominantly through PV, since the CSP projects require
longer preparation period and the production process is more water-consuming.
The market is highly dependent on cheap imported solar PV modules.

The development of the solar energy generation is set in the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (NSM).
Under the Mission in three phases up to 2022 the grid-connected solar power should expand to 20,000 MW, while
the off-grid installation has to reach 2,000 MW.
The first phase (2010 to 2013) aims at setting up a favourable environment to enable solar technology penetration at
a centralised and decentralised level. It targets grid connection of 1GW - 2GW and off-grid solar applications of
200MW.

The second phase (2013 to 2017) aims at providing fast competitive solar energy penetration with enforcement of a
mandatory renewable purchase obligation for utilities, backed by a preferential tariff. The grid-connected capacity
should be 4,000MW-10,000MW with another 1,000MW off-grid and 15 mn sq meters solar hot water collectors. After
a relatively successful first phase however, there was substantial delay in the second one.
By the end of the last phase (2017 to 2022), grid-connected capacity should reach 100,000 MW (increased in Jun
2015 from initial 20,000MW). The target should comprise of 40 gw rooftop and 60 gw through large and medium
scale grid connected solar power projects.
The total investment in setting up those 100 GW will be around INR 6,000 bn.

Solar plants
in Uttar
Pradesh

Half a dozen companies have reached agreement with the government of Uttar Pradesh for the construction of solar
power plants, newspaper Pioneer reported in June 2015. The total capacity of the plants, whose capacity ranges
from 5MW to 10MW, will be 225MW. The firms will sell power to the state grid for 25 years. The price is yet to be
determined. The companies are Adani Group, Zee Group and Sukheever Agro Energy Ltd among others.

PV solar
panels
production

In January 2015, Indias Adani Power and US firm SunEdison announced plans to invest up to USD 4bn in what
would be Indias largest solar panel manufacturer, Reuters reported. The plant will be constructed in the state of
Gujarat and is expected to be built in 3 years and create 20,000 work places. The project would provide low-cost
photovoltaic solar panels, thus boosting solar energy generation in the country. Further details are yet to be
announced.

Development
of solar cities

The program is designed to spur the adoption of renewable energy technologies and energy efficiency measures by local
governments. Under the scheme, the government provides INR 5mn per city (INR 1mn for preparation of a Master plan, INR
1mn for setting up of solar cell and its functioning for a period of three years; INR 1mn for oversight of implementation during
three years and INR 2mn for capacity building). The Solar City should reach a minimum 10% reduction in projected demand of
conventional energy at the end of the five-year period as all types of renewable energy based projects like solar, wind,
biomass, small hydropower, waste to energy etc. may be installed along with possible energy efficiency measures depending
on the need and resource availability in the city. Cities with population between 50,000 and 5,000,000 people can apply. At
least one and a maximum five cities per state can be supported by the program to a total of 60 cities. As on January 15, 2015
sanctions at a total cost of INR 227.3mn for 48cities have been issued for Master plan, solar cells and promotional activities.
About INR 49.6mn have been extended.

Comments
One of the requirements for a project to be elligible
for the Mission was the so-called domestic content
requirement (DCR). It was included in the guidelines
to promote the creation of domestic solar
manufacturing industry and is extended over the
production of crystalline silicon modules. Thin film
technologies are exempted from the DCR, and could
be imported, thus resulting in lower costs of the
modules and creating uneven advantage for
introducing thin film PV against silicon PV.
The interim report on NSM (April 2012) has
concluded that the domestic content requirement has
shifted the market towards thin film PV, as they are
used in more than 50% of the projects, a larger
proportion than the global average. They are
however less efficient, thus requiring more land.
As at June 4, 2014, the tentative manufacturing
capacity of cells and modules in India was as follows,
suggesting very low capacity utilisation:
Cells: Installed capacity 1,368MW;
Capacity under operation: 297MW;
Solar modules: installed capacity 2,756MW;
Capacity under operation 1,304 MW;

GW at almost 5,500 sites. Most of the potential is in the Himalayan states (river-based projects) and in other states that offer
irrigation.
As at March 2015, the small hydro projects in India had total capacity of 4,055MW. In FY2014-2015, the target for new
capacities of 250MW was overachieved by 1.6MW. There is potential for projects with a combined capacity of about 19GW.
The private investment in the segment is low, as interest rates are high and make the debt financing expensive. Despite having
high growth potential, the market niche is still undeveloped and riskier compared to other energy projects.
The renewable energy ministry reported that as of end January 2015 there were 27 manufacturers of small hydro power
turbines who fabricate almost the entire range and type of SHP equipment listed in the renewable energy ministry.
Manufacturers capacity is estimated at about 400 MW per year.

Biomass
Cogeneration

According to Energy Alternatives India, the country produces about 450mn-500mn tonnes of biomass annually. In different
studies the countrys energy potential is estimated at between 18,000MW and 50,000MW.
The leading states for biomass power projects are Andhra Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and
Tamil Nadu. The installed capacity reached about 1,400MW as at end FY2014-2015, but the addition in the last fiscal was
substantially below the 100 MW target at 45MW.
Bagasse cogeneration is predominantly developed in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Uttar
Pradesh. The installed capacity as at March 2015 reached 3,008MW. The target of 300MW I new capacity addition in FY 20142015 was overachieved by 60MW.
Removal of Barriers to Biomass Power Generation in India (2006-2014) is a project between the United Nations and MNRE,
which supports green- and brownfield biomass projects in the country. The funding support is more than USD 5.6 mn.
Recent market reports suggest not so favourabe development of the segment, with claims that more than half of the countrys
grid-connected power plants that run on biomass have either shut down or are on the verge of shutting down, due to
competition within the biomass power industry and from other industries like cement and brick kilns.

As at March 2015, there were 165 biomass power


plants with a total capacity of about 1400 MW.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) is
promoting efficient utilisation of biomass like agroindustrial and agricultural residues including paddy
straw for power generation in the country. Fiscal
incentives such as accelereated depreciation,
concessional customs duty, excise duty exemption,
10 years income tax holiday and preferential tariff are
provided for biomass power projects.
The renewable energy ministry also provides Central
Financial Assistance of INR 2.5mn per MW in special
category states (North-eastern region, Sikkim,
Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and
Uttaranchal) and INR 2mn per MW for other states
with a cap of INR 15mn per project. The renewable
energy ministry reported that it has allocated about
INR132.2mn as Central Financial Assistance for
biomass power projects during the last three years.
There are also incentives for bagasse co-generation
by private and public sector sugar mills.
The renewable energy ministry commented that
some of the biomass projects have been facing
problem of non-viable operations due to high price of
biomass and low tariff of electricity in some states.

V. Main Players

Indias fiscal year runs from Apr 1 to March 31. Thus, FY 2015 (also called fiscal 2015) means Apr 1, 2014 Mar 31, 2015. In Indian documents, FY (fiscal) 2015 is also labeled FY14-15.
The remaining nine months of calendar 2015, i.e. Apr-Dec, belong to fiscal year 2016.
In order to better align with calendar years and make international comparisons more meaningful, in this report, EMIS has chosen to label data by the year in which most of the result occurred.
Unless otherwise stated, in this report, 2014, for example, means the 12 months between Apr 1, 2014 - Mar 31, 2015, or what in India is referred to as FY 20145 This applies to Indian companies
only and may not apply to companies with global operations, which may be presented in this report.
When sources have not provided details on their year labeling policy, year labels in graphs and tables featured in this report appear as provided by the source.
