MNRE Strategy for Phase II
10
Award of capacity to be spread out over Initial two years of plan period as:
It facilitates planning for manufacturers as well as developers
Learning from prior development would be available for subsequent bids
Benefits of cost reduction could be achieved
More states could come up the curve to participate in the process
Maximize chances of achieving targets within desired timelines
Preferably bidding process for allocation of target capacity to end before 2015-16
Lower dependence on Bundling
Domestic Content – Key for Phase II
11
Development of 4-5 GW of manufacturing capacity is one of the objectives of JNNSM
Current manufacturing capacity (SPV): ~2000 MW (Module)
Cheaper international loans available with imported components
DCR conditions under schemes entailing direct funding support by Central Government could facilitate development of domestic manufacturing capacity base.
Policy Initiatives for Further Growth in Solar Power Capacities
• Policy hallmark during Phase 1 was bundling of solar power with cheap thermal power
• Phase 2 envisages to reach 10 GW utility scale solar power capacity by March 2017.
• 4 GW under central scheme and 6 GW under various State specific schemes.
• Other Schemes are
• Grid Connected Roof Top Solar PV Power systems • CSP Pilot Projects
• Provision of Viability Gap Funding (VGF)
• Bundling is subject to availability of unallocated thermal power
12
Draft Features of VGF Scheme
Tariff to be paid to the developer :
Rs.5.45/kWh, fixed for 25 years
10% less viz., Rs. 4.95/kWh for projects availing benefit of Accelerated Depreciation
Payment of VGF up to 30% of project cost limited to Rs. 2.5 cr./
MW, through competitive bidding.
Developer’s equity Minimum Rs.1.5 cr./MW
Balance can be raised as Loan.
13
Release of VGF amount
VGF to be released in three tranches- – 25% at the time of delivery of at least 50%
of major equipment at site; Weightage: Modules -40% PCUs -20% Switchgear & Transformer -20% Mounting Structures -20%
14
Release of VGF amount
50% on successful commissioning;
Balance 25% after 1 year of commissioning meeting requirements of generation
If during PPA duration of 25 years:
– the project fails to function at any time, or – its assets are sold, or – the project is dismantled, SECI will have right to claim assets equal to VGF paid. Legal documentation to be prepared by SECI.
15
Min. & Max. Capacity
Min. Capacity of each project – 10 MW
Max. capacity – 50 MW
Max. 3 projects at different locations by one developer, subject to a max. of 100 MW.
Capacity will be the AC output at the project bus bar located within project premises.
16
Grid connectivity
Inter-connection with Transmission network of STU/CTU/any other Utility at level of 33 KV or above.
Developer to submit along with Bid a letter from STU / CTU/ Transmission Utility confirming technical feasibility of connectivity of plant to substation.
Transmission of power up to interconnection point where metering is done for energy accounting, to be responsibility of Developer at own cost.
17
Grid connectivity (contd.)
Option of Pooling Point where more than one SPV projects may connect
Common Transmission Line (CTL) to further connect Pooling Point to the Interconnection/Metering point.
CTL to be built and operated by the developer/any third party/by STU on behalf of developer.
Metering to be done at the Interconnection Point along with subsidiary meters at the Pooling Point to determine the generation by each project.

Pilot Solar Thermal Power Projects
• JNNSM document envisages setting up pilot projects to address issues related to optimization and use of improved/advanced technology options
- Advanced technology configurations which could lead to cost reduction through higher efficiency and CUF, and scale effect
- Reduction in water consumption and footprint land area in solar thermal projects
- Potential for replication in commercial projects soon after success of demonstration projects
- Potential for indigenous manufacturing
• MNRE constituted a multi-stakeholders Group in January 2011 to discuss and suggest technology configurations
Project Configurations and Sites Based on recommendations of the stakeholders group and site visits by experts, identified pilot projects to have the following configurations:
Project Configuration Identified sites and Broad
Specifications With hybrid cooling
Reduced (<= 30%) consumption of water
Bhadla (Rajasthan) Available Land Area: 150 ha Capacity: 40 MW est. CUF: 29% est.
High operating temperature
(>=500ºC) Higher efficiency
Charanka (Gujarat) Available Land Area: 140 ha Capacity: 35 MW est. CUF : 30% est.
Large thermal storage (about 8 hours)
Terkuveerapandiyapuram (Tamil Nadu)
Available Land Area: 160 ha Capacity: 25 MW est. CUF : 45% est.
Large thermal storage Base load
Nennala (Andhra Pradesh)
Available Land Area: 160 ha Capacity: 20 MW est. CUF : 65% est.
Project Details
Solar Energy Corporation of India to implement the project
Target tariff of solar power – Rs 5.83/ Unit for 25 Years
Project selection through ICB for viability gap funding
Framework of Support
At least 20% of the project cost to come as equity from the project
developer.
Debt portion could comprise of at the most 50% of the project cost
from CTF / ADB;
The maximum amount of VGF would be upto 40% of the project
cost.
Estimated project cost = Rs. 2,555 Crore
NCEF Committee Chaired by Expenditure Secretary
approved the project with Rs. 1020 crore of support
Roof Top Solar PV Power Projects
Grid connected Rooftop Projects to be supported by grant as capital subsidy for self consumption of Solar Electricity and feeding extra power to grid whenever available.
Basic aim is to mitigate consumption of diesel.
The scheme is implemented in two modes, viz., Capital Grant @ 30% of project cost, and RESCO mode with some grant and a provision of tariff from the consumer.
Scheme is implemented by SECI through competitive bidding in select cities.
Project size to be 100 kW to 500 kW, however, aggregation of capacity from smaller projects is allowed.
Balance cost is to be met by the consumer.
Grid connectivity and metering is to be in accordance with CEA guidelines or SERC’s regulations.
Status of Implementation
• Phase-I already started with the following allocations:
Chennai – 2 MW
Bangalore – 2 MW
Delhi – 1 MW
Gurgaon – 0.5 MW
• Phase-II: Bids invited for a capacity of 11.1 MW:
Jaipur – 3.1 MW
Bhubaneswar – 1 MW
Hyderabad – 2 MW
Gurgaon – 1.5 MW
NOIDA/ Gr. NOIDA – 1.5 MW
