Bhopal: Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Thursday said Madhya Pradesh will have 20,000 MW renewable energy capacity in five years. A big step in this was taken during the day when the government signed a contract for the first phase of the 600 MW Omkareshwar Floating Solar Project on Narmada – said to be the biggest of its kind in the world.
Following blatant abuse of the program, the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has revoked the concessions it had granted under the bonded warehouse scheme, which had allowed solar developers to postpone paying the high import duties on solar cells and modules that became effective on 1 April.
Due to increased demand for electricity, the power sector and power producing companies are experiencing increased electricity production by means of renewable energy sources (RES) and distributed generation (DG). The major issue arises for a common man when their monthly bills pile up. One solution recommended by the government is to utilize solar energy as a substitute.
IGAI ( Indira Gandhi International Airport ) has become the first airport in India to run entirely on hydro and solar power after switching to renewable sources of its energy. This step will help in the reduction of energy emissions of 2 Lakh Tonnes CO2 per year, resulting in a Read more…
