India is abundantyl gifted with a variety of renewable energy sources; however not all states are endowed with same level of renewable energy sources. The enactment of the Electricity Act 2003 (EA 2003) stimulated the development of RE-based power generation by mandating State Electricity Regulatory Commissions (SERC) with the responsibility to promote RE generation within the state.
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) are a market-based instrument to promote RE power. The REC is a policy instrument which provides evidence that an electricity generator has produced a certain quantum of power from a renewable energy source such has wind, solar, biomass, waste to energy etc.
It is well understood that access to cheap, clean and copious energy sources is essential for modern technological societies. Over the last century, fossil fuels did provide the world with unprecedented development, there was, however, insufficient clarity about the criteria for
On 14th January, 2010 the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) notified the CERC (Terms and Conditions for recognition and issuance of Renewable Energy Generation) Regulations, 2010.
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Govt. of India has come out with the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) with the objective of establishing India as a global leader in solar energy by creating policy conditions for its diffusion across the country as soon as possible.
The UN Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) has published a report titled "Regional Analysis for Policy Reforms to Promote Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Investments." The report provides recommendations to develop and implement policy reforms supporting market formation and fostering a favorable climate for investments in the sectors of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources.
Climate change is definitely the biggest story of the 21st century. But its sheer complexity and urgency is defeating us. For the past 19 years-the first intergovernmental negotiations took place in Washington DC, USA in early 1991-the world has been arguing about what it knows but doesn't accept.
The Copenhagen Accord does mention a Copenhagen Green Climate Fund and a Technology Mechanism for technology development and transfer in support of action on adaptation and mitigation. However, it is silent on crucial aspects of both; perhaps those will be worked out in the negotiations to be conducted later.
