Power Min issues draft rules for change in law, RE must-run compensation
New Delhi: The Union Power Ministry proposes to bring new rules to allow quick compensation to power plants for additional costs arising due to change in law events or modifications in consents or licenses associated with the projects. The move is aimed at avoiding long drawn regulatory procedures for incontestable cases, adding to stress in the already troubled sector. It also aims to cut down frivolous litigations besides multiple cases over similar claims to enable regulatory commissions focus on genuine disputes.
