Guidelines for Implementation of Scheme for Setting up of 1000 MW ISTS-connected Wind Power Projects

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has formulated a Scheme for Setting up of 1000 MW ISTS-connected Wind Power Projects (WPP) to provide a framework for inter-state sale of wind power at a price determined through transparent competitive bidding process. This will not only facilitate the non-windy States/UTs to fulfil their non-solar RPO obligations but also boost investment in the sector thus achieving the goal of reaching 60 GW of wind power capacity by 2022.
