Since 2022, Central Transmission Utility of India Limited (CTUIL) has revoked connectivity of 24 grantees with a RE capacity of 6,343 MW. The cancellations are on account of developer delays and not due to transmission side delays.
There are sixteen petitions pending before the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission that pertain to cases where the Petitioners (Power Generators) have approached CERC seeking protection from revocation of connectivity.
The Government of India has set a goal of 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based generation capacity by 2030. Already 259 GW of non-fossil capacity is connected to the grid.
Further, Inter-State Transmission System (ISTS) for evacuation of 172 GW of renewable energy is already under construction, and bids are in process for 19 GW capacity. Simultaneously, the Government of India is working with the States to ensure timely development of respective Intra-State Transmission Systems for evacuation of 152 GW of renewable energy.
