AP government invites private participation to set up ultra mega renewable energy power parks
With an immense potential to produce solar and wind power in the state, the Andhra Pradesh government has formulated a comprehensive policy to promote private participation in the sector.
The Andhra Pradesh Renewable Energy Export Policy, 2020, has been announced to attract private investments for establishing solar/wind/wind-solar hybrid projects on a massive scale. Under the policy, the renewable energy produced can be exported to other states without any obligation to the state DISCOMs to procure power as the DISCOMs have already exceeded the Renewable Power Purchase Obligation (RPO) as notified by the Ministry of Power (MoP), government of India and also AP State Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC).
