HIMACHAL PRADESH ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION SHIMLA

NOTIFICATION

Shimla, the 6th August, 2011

No. HPERC/438.—WHEREAS regulation 4 of Himachal Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (Renewable Power Purchase Obligation and its Compliance) Regulations, 2010, specifies the quantum of Renewable Power Purchase Obligations (RPPO), for FY 2010-11 to FY 2012-13 for Non-Solar and Solar energy, for the distribution licensee as well as Captive and Open Access users/consumers;

AND WHEREAS the distribution licensee has expressed difficulty in fulfillment of Solar RPPO, as the distribution licensee had entered into MOU with Himachal Pradesh Power Corporation Ltd. (HPPCL) to procure 3 MW of Solar energy, under Jawahar Lal Nehru National Solar Mission, but the final allotment of these projects could not be made in favour of the Himachal Pradesh Power Corporation Ltd and, therefore, projects could not be initiated;

95-राजपत्र/2011-8-8-2011 (2185)2186 राजपत्र, हिमाचल प्रदेश, 8 अगस्त, 2011/17 श्रावण, 1933 AND WHEREAS the distribution licensee, though, through private developer has initiated the process of identification of suitable sites for Solar projects in its own hydro generating stations, sub-stations and other land sites owned by the distribution licensee, yet installation of these Solar projects is likely to take some time; more so because the Commission in its MYT Order for FY 2011-12 to FY 2013-14 has directed the distribution licensee to follow the bidding process to allot Solar generating plants;

AND WHEREAS the Govt. of Himachal Pradesh is yet to finalise the State Solar Policy and, therefore, the distribution licensee has no Policy framework to meet the Solar RPPO of 0.1% for FY 11-12 as specified in the said regulations;

AND WHEREAS as per the estimates of MYT Order for FY 11-12 to FY 13-14, the consumption is increasing and, therefore, with the distinct possibilities of many of IPPs opting for REC mechanism, distribution licensee may barely meet the RPPO in the coming years;

AND WHEREAS the National Action Plan for Climate Change (NAPCC) has set a target of 5% renewable energy purchase for FY 2009-10 with an increase of 1% per annum for next 10 years, thereby envisaging 15% energy purchase from renewable sources by 2020. As per National Tariff Policy the target for Solar RPPO is .25% by FY 2013 and which shall go upto 3% by 2022;

AND WHEREAS as per the target set in by NAPCC the distribution licensee is required to have minimum RPPO of 7% and 8% for FY 2011-12 and FY 2012-13 respectively;

AND WHEREAS a long term trajectory of RPPO is always desirable to promote investment in renewables and market stability by providing the regulatory certainty;

AND WHEREAS in view of the above, it has become necessary to amend the existing RPPO regulations and also to specify the long term RPPO trajectory upto 2022;

NOW, THEREFORE, in exercise of the power conferred by subsection (1) of section 181, read with sub-section (1) of section 62, section 66, clauses (a), (b) and (e) of section 86 and clause (zi) of sub-section (2) of section 181 of the Electricity Act, 2003 (36 of 2003), and all other powers enabling it in this behalf, the Himachal Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission proposes to amend the Himachal Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (Renewable Power Purchase Obligation and its Compliance) Regulations,2010, published in the Rajpatra, Himachal Pradesh, dated 29th May, 2010 and draft of the proposed amendment, as required by sub-section (3) of section 181 of the said Act, read with rule 3 of the Electricity (Procedure for Previous Publication) Rules 2005, is hereby published for the information of all the persons likely to be affected thereby; and notice is hereby given that the said draft amendment will be taken into consideration after the expiry of thirty days from the date of its publication in the Rajpatra, Himachal Pradesh, together with any objections or suggestions which may within the aforesaid period be received in respect thereto.
