Description

Description

The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) has released draft guidelines for Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs) to support India's clean energy goals. VPPAs are long-term contracts between consumers and renewable energy generators, allowing consumers to meet renewable energy consumption targets by guaranteeing payment for electricity generated, while the actual electricity is sold through power markets. These agreements enable flexibility in compliance with renewable energy obligations without physical delivery of electricity.
