Frequently Asked Questions on Renewable Energy & Green Hydrogen Regulations
What is the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) mandate for solar in India?
The ALMM is a quality and domestic manufacturing enforcement mandate issued by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE). It requires all government, subsidized, open access, and net-metering solar projects to procure solar PV modules and cells exclusively from models enlisted in the ALMM list.
How does the National Green Hydrogen Mission (SIGHT) incentive structure work?
Under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) program administered by SECI and MNRE, the government provides direct financial incentives for domestic manufacturing of electrolyzers and production of green hydrogen through competitive multi-year bidding tranches.
What are the Green Energy Open Access Rules in India?
The Electricity (Promoting Renewable Energy Through Green Energy Open Access) Rules reduce the open access transaction limit from 1 MW to 100 kW (with no limit for captive consumers), mandate single-window clearance within 15 days, and cap cross-subsidy surcharges to accelerate commercial green power adoption.
What is the Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) trajectory through 2030?
The Ministry of Power and MNRE mandate a progressively rising RPO trajectory combining Wind RPO, Hydro Purchase Obligation (HPO), and Other Renewable RPO (solar, biomass, waste-to-energy), reaching over 43% of total electricity consumption by 2029-30.
