MNRE announces new National Wind-Solar Hybrid Policy

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) announced a new National Wind-Solar Hybrid Policy. This new policy aims to provide framework for the promotion of large grid-connected wind-solar Photovoltaics (PV) hybrid systems for efficient utilization of transmission infrastructure and land.

The policy also aims at reducing the variability in renewable power generation and achieving better grid stability. A scheme for new hybrid projects under the policy is also expected shortly.
