REC Trade Result June 2016
This month trading saw a huge surge in the demand for both Solar and Non-Solar RECs. The demand rose approximately 2.5 times for both non-solar and solar, while also registering good clearing ratios at both the exchanges, as compared to June 2015. The total transaction value stood at roughly 80 Crores as compared to 31.5 Crores last month.
The positive movement in demand can be attributed to the order of UERC on 20th of June, wherein they have directed all obligated entities to strictly fulfil their RPO obligation of FY 2015-16, by July 2016. This month also saw marginal fall in total REC issuance, and despite the rise in total sell bids, the market showed positive signs of recovery. We expect the other states to enforce RPO more strictly in the months to come.
Analysis of Trading:
Non Solar – Clearing ratio in exchange stood at 4.01% and 1.50 % in IEX and PXIL respectively for Non Solar REC’s. A total of 417,426 RECs were traded as compared to 161,858 RECs traded in May.
Solar – Clearing ratio stood good at 1.24% and 2.28% in IEX and PXIL respectively, with total clearing volume being 2.5 times of the previous month.
The detailed result is tabled below:
The positive movement in demand can be attributed to the order of UERC on 20th of June, wherein they have directed all obligated entities to strictly fulfil their RPO obligation of FY 2015-16, by July 2016. This month also saw marginal fall in total REC issuance, and despite the rise in total sell bids, the market showed positive signs of recovery. We expect the other states to enforce RPO more strictly in the months to come.
We are hopeful that the FY 2016-17 will bring good fortune to the REC market, considering the proposed regulatory changes and more stricter enforcement by states, which will bring back stakeholders confidence.
