Joint Electricity Regulatory Commission (Renewable Power Purchase Obligation and its Compliance)
The Joint Electricity Regulatory Commission (Goa and UT’s) recently came up with its long term Renewable purchase obligation trajectory and compliance regulation, following the footsteps of states like Chhattisgarh, HP and AP. JERC has declared its RPO Trajectory up to 2022 with total RPO of 17% which lags behind in comparison with MoP RPO Trajectory and of other states.
Just like other states, the said obligations will be applicable on total consumption of electricity by an obligated entity, excluding consumption met from hydro electric sources of power. The graph below gives comparison of MoP RPO Trajectory with JERC RPO Trajectory:
