Transmission Connectivity of 6.43 GW Renewable Projects Revoked Since 2022.

The Central Transmission Utility of India (CTUIL) has revoked connectivity for 24 renewable energy (RE) developers, affecting a total capacity of 6.43 GW over the past three years, Parliament was informed recently. The cancellations were attributed to delays on the part of power developers, not transmission-related issues.

“Since 2022, Central Transmission Utility of India Ltd (CTUIL) has revoked connectivity of 24 grantees with a renewable energy capacity of 6,343 MW. The cancellations are on account of developer delays and not due to transmission side delays,” Minister of State for Power Shripad Naik stated in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha.

He also noted that sixteen petitions are currently pending before the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC), filed by power generators seeking protection from the revocation of connectivity.
