It is learnt that, the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) has approved a power sale agreement (PSA) signed between the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) and Tata Power Delhi Distribution Limited (TPDDL) for procuring power from 50 MW of wind power projects. This procurement of power will be utilized for meeting TPDDL’s renewable purchase obligation.

TPDDL had petitioned the DERC to adopt a tariff of 2.45/kWh plus the trading margin of 0.07/kWh for 50 MW wind power project. Tata Power had requested for this tariff until the commissioning of total SECI-interstate transmission system (ISTS) wind power projects, after which the tariff would be 2.52/kWh (including trading margin) for the remaining duration of the power purchase agreement (PPA).
