Independent status to RE, fresh norms & strict
regulations
Aiming to consolidate the renewable energy sector and give it an institutional
structure, the Union government has drafted the National Renewable Energy Bill,
2015. After it is passed by Parliament it would enable a National Renewable
Energy Policy, Renewable Energy Corporation of India, an advisory group and a
committee on the same.
Till now, the renewable energy sector was governed by the Electricity Act,
2003, which is also undergoing amendments.
