CEO Foreword
Corporations, investors and governments today are aced with a choice: to compete aggressively or inite resources, or toadvance towards a low-carbon economy that enables sustainable, proitable growth, whilst reducing reliance on increasinglyscarce materials.
Last year global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions reached a record high. The International Energy Agency estimatesmade or bleak reading, but compounded the necessity to take bold and decisive action, i we are to have any chance olimiting temperature increase to the 2C level agreed by world leaders, to protect against catastrophic climate change.
Whats more, rising energy demands are competing or a limited supply o ossil uels. The competition or increasingly scarcenatural resources is putting pressure on commodity prices and having a growing impact, both socially and economically. It isclear that today, more than ever, we must build momentum to decouple economic growth rom emissions.
Managing carbon emissions and protecting the business rom climate change impacts is undamental to achieving sustainable
and strong shareholder returns. Earlier this year, investment consultancy, Mercer released a report concluding that the best waor institutional investors to manage portolio risk associated with climate change may be to shit 40% o their portolios intoclimate-sensitive assets with an emphasis on those that can adapt to a low-carbon environment.
An important part o an investors strategy should be to engage with the companies in which they invest to encourageperormance improvement. Carbon Action is a new initiative launched by CDP this year. It is driven by a leading group oinvestors to encourage their portolio companies to reduce emissions, by investing in emissions reducing activities with asatisactory payback period. Carbon Action relects a growing recognition that there is a huge range o carbon reducingactivities that companies can undertake that have a very clear business case. It is, thereore, in the interests o all investors andnot just the more active owners o investments, to ensure these actions are taken.
As the management o carbon continues to move into companies core business strategies and mainstream investmentthinking, demand or primary corporate climate change inormation grows around the world. As well as working on behal
o 551 institutional investors, to gather relevant inormation rom large corporations around the world, CDP is also workingwith global businesses and governments to strengthen the resilience and sustainability o their supply chains through theCDP Supply Chain program. CDP Cities has launched to help the worlds major cities reduce climate change risk and bolstereconomic growth; and CDP Water Disclosure is now in its second year o working with major global companies to improvewater management. A key part o CDPs strategy is to ensure the eective use o data collected. To assist with this, companiesare able to obtain tools that help them to measure, report and manage carbon more eectively, through CDP ReporterServices.
It is through partnerships that CDP can achieve the largest impact. In India we are delighted to be working with our localpartners the Conederation o Indian Industry (CII - ITC CESD) and WWF India, as well as the India Report Partner,Ernst & Young Pvt. Ltd. In addition, we highly value the continued support o our Global Advisor, PwC, as well as that o
Accenture, Microsot, SAP and Bloomberg. These and our other partners around the world are integral to the accelerationo CDPs mission.
Whilst we wait patiently or much needed global regulation, business must continue to orge ahead, innovate and seek outopportunities by doing more with less. The decisions that perpetuate a legitimate, low-carbon and high growth economywill bring considerable value to those that have the oresight to make them. The inormation contained in this report and thecompanies responses assist in illuminating that path.

In the ace o climate change adversities,which can be an impediment to the
sustainable growth o economy, Indiacan benet rom a low carbon growthtrajectory to achieve its objectives oreconomic development and mitigationo climate change. As one o the largestand astest growing economies inthe world, India is acing increasinginternational pressure to mitigate itsGHG emissions. Transitioning to a lowcarbon economy presents multipleopportunities to India, includingsustainable economic growth,inrastructure development throughlow carbon technologies, enhancedenergy security, green employmentopportunities and a leading role in theclean technology sector.
Some o the critical actors to achievelow carbon growth include mappingand orecasting o Indias baselineGHG emissions, identication oplausible carbon abatement levers inthe key ocus sectors, gap analysis oexisting/upcoming policies and a policy
ramework or overcoming barriers tolow carbon growth. The successul
implementation o this transition wouldrequire signicant investment, planningand massive coordination among alllevels o government and sectors othe economy. However, once realized,the transition to a low carbon economywould strengthen Indias economy,energy security and its capability tomeet the challenge o climate change.
Leading companies have a strongsense o the potential impacts oclimate change on their bottom-lineperormance. They have set asideregulatory uncertainty, and instead havetaken their cues rom the market. Ratherthan standing on the sidelines waiting orclarity, they are seizing the opportunityto serve their markets and to createlong-term competitive value.
This is the th year that the CarbonDisclosure Project (CDP) sent its annualinormation request to the top 200 oIndias companies by market cap on
Executive Summary
behal o 551 investors with US$ 71trillion o assets under management,

Risk and Opportunity Analysis
This section assesses the extentand manner in which companiesare responding to the risks andopportunities related to climate change.
As in previous years, three categories orisks and opportunities are highlightedin the CDP questionnaire regulatory,physical and other risks. The analysisconsiders the nancial implicationsassociated with the identied risks andopportunities and the ways in whichthey infuence businesses and their valuechains. It also describes any actions that
companies may have taken to manageor adapt to the risks/opportunities that
have been identied, including the costo those actions.
Comparative Overview
The number o companies whichperceive some sort o risk due toclimate change in CDP 2011 standsat 89% (41) o the respondents whilethe remaining 11% ( 5) o respondents,have indicated that they do not perceiveany direct risks due to climate change.It is interesting to note that 76% (35) o
the respondents perceive themselvesto be exposed to both regulatory andphysical risks which can have an impacon business. Emerging regulatory riskis viewed as aecting business mainlydue to the assumption that in thenear uture, India may have to acceptbinding emission reduction targets.Such a presumption arises mostly romthe announcement o a requirement omandatory survey o designated sectorsby the National Action Plan on ClimateChange (NAPCC), and also the end o
the rst commitment period o CleanDevelopment Mechanism, establishedunder the Kyoto Protocol, on 31stDecember, 2012. In the case o otherrisks, 67% (31) o the respondentsconsider these to aect businessthough the issues listed are companyand sector-specic. A look at thestatistics clearly show that companiesare looking at the bigger picture andare leveraging the opportunities thatclimate change oers. They are gearingup to take advantage o climate changerelated product and service demands.
An overwhelming 96% (44) o therespondents see some or the otheropportunities that climate changepresents their business with. 87% (40)o the respondents see positive revenueavenues rom regulatory changesbecause o experience o workingin a developing country, with rapidlychanging regulations and businessclimate.

Regulatory Risk
Companies in India are increasinglyconcerned about changes inregulations, which may resultin increased operational costs.Respondents comprising 76% (35)o the responding companies are
aware o such regulatory risks. Theyperceive international agreements,national commitments, populist policiesand stakeholder pressure, to causesignicant impact to their businesses.Carbon cess, more stringent air pollutionlimits, cap and trade schemes, uel,water and energy taxes, and generaluncertainty are seen as key actorswhich are shaping their businesses.

Physical Risks
Indian companies are very concernedabout the long term uture o theirbusiness models, with 76% (35) othe responding companies statingtheir concern about the physical risks.Petroleum companies are concernedabout the impact o heavy rains andcyclones in coastal areas, which maycause either reduction or disruptionin production capacity. Rising sealevels could impact coastal acilitieslike reneries, ports, terminals, etc. asevents such as foods, related to storm
surges, could become more requent. Inrecent years, storm surges associatedwith hurricanes have resulted in reneryshutdowns in the US Gul or somecompanies. Volatility in precipitationpatterns in the orm o heavyconcentrated rainall, fash foods, andsudden changes in topography; stormsand strong winds as well as increasein temperatures will have direct impacton project execution and lie o assets.
Apprehensions o both excessive andvolatility in precipitation is very common.Companies with large exposure toinrastructural disruptions are takinga positive approach and setting updisaster recovery systems and trainings,to minimize the impact o cyclones,typhoons, earthquakes, tsunamis andother such violent weather conditions.Eight companies are concerned aboutthe actual impact o a changing climatewithin the coming ve years. Mostcompanies see these occurrences asto causing a direct impact on them
resulting in inability to do business,reduction in production capacity,
increased operation costs or reduceddemand or goods and services. Themajor risk drivers perceived by therespondents in terms o physical riskswere changes in temperature extremes,changes in precipitation extremes anddroughts, tropical cyclones and inducedchanges in natural resources.
Other Risks
Companies are monitoring their risksbecause o the uncertain environment
regarding climate change, dierencesin literature and news regarding thelong term impact o climate changeand the political nature o internationaldiscussions. There are lots o business-specic and sector specic risks thatcompanies envisage themselves tobe exposed to. Changing consumerbehaviour, fuctuating socio-economicconditions, increasing humanitariandemands, uncertainty in market signals,induced changes in human and culturalenvironment and damage to reputation
upon lenient adherence, are the primarydrivers o other risk apprehensions.Moving orward, there will be a needor greater transparency and increaseddisclosure on climate action bycorporates. Internationally, this will bethrough initiatives such as the CDP andnationally, through upcoming mandatoryand voluntary disclosure requirements.Companies see these risks to be verylikely and capable o causing medium tohigh impact to their businesses.

Regulatory Opportunity
Despite the skepticism, 87% (40)o the responding companies areaware that new regulations andchanging business practices alsoprovide them with new opportunities.New regulations can provide anadditional source o revenue, in theorm o tradable certicates throughschemes such as Perorm, Achieveand Trade (PAT), Renewable EnergyObligations (REO) and the UNFCCC-Clean Development Mechanism(CDM). Coming o the blocks early by
manuacturing sustainable productsor sustainable services, will provideopportunities like charging premiumprices. Also, such steps can result ingreater capital availability as banks aregetting more skeptical in providing loansto companies without sustainabilityprocesses in place. Also, by ensuringproper training and putting in placesustainable processes, companiescan strive to achieve operationaleciencies. This can cause greaterdiscipline, stakeholder acceptance,reduced operational costs, and widersocial benets. Also, some companiesenvisage opportunities o venturing intonew products and services, which theysee becoming part o the wider market,because o new regulations.

This, they believe, will enable themto ght regional competition better.Inrastructure companies think thatchange in precipitation pattern maydrive innovations in developing climate
resilient inrastructure such as articialrees and dykes that act as barriers tosea water inundation due to sea levelrise, climate resilient materials suchas heat resistant paving materials anddurable overlay materials and changesin the elevation o bridges, streets,pavement and rail lines, re-design odrainage system and raising sea walls.
Other Opportunity
While evaluating other opportunities,65% (30) o the respondingcompanies see climate change relateddevelopments as an opportunity to re-brand themselves. By providing widerstakeholder awareness, disclosures oneconomic, social and environmentalperormance indicators, andimprovement in governance, companiesbelieve they can increase their reputationin the market, providing intangiblebenets in the orm o internationalacceptance, unding, employee

Sectoral Snapshot o
Emissions Disclosure:
The analysis demonstrates that all theresponding companies rom ConsumerDiscretionary, Consumer Staples,Energy and Materials sectors havedisclosed on their GHG emissions (seeFigure 13). Further, three companiesrom the Materials sector are in theCDLI, the highest rom any sector. It isnoteworthy that non-energy intensivesectors, such as Financials andInormation Technology are also in theoreront in terms o GHG emissionsdisclosure.

in 2011
Over the last ew years, the numbero companies reporting their GHGemissions is on an upward trend. In2011, 89% (41) o the respondingcompanies have reported either oScope 1, 2 or 3 emissions. This is morethan a two - old increase since CDP2008 (see Figure 10). In 2011, 89% (41)o the respondents have disclosed theirScope 1 emissions while 87% (40) othe respondents have disclosedScope 2 emissions. Scope 3 emissiondisclosure stands at 54% (25), anincrease rom 46% in CDP 2010 andmore than double the 26% disclosureor CDP 2008.
The total disclosed emissions(Scope 1, 2 & 3) stands at 93.17million tonnes o CO
2e . This is lower
than the emissions reported in CDP2010 which stood at 114 milliontonnes CO
2e. As was the case in
CDP 2010, in CDP 2011 too, directScope 1 emissions account or the
biggest chunk o emissions with 87%(80.75 million tonnes CO
2e) o the total
disclosed emissions. Indirect or Scope2 emissions stand at 10% (9.46 milliontonnes CO
2e), lower than the 14% in
CDP 2010. Scope 3 emissions ormonly 3% o the total emissions disclosed.
Figure 12 shows the variations in thereported GHG emissions in milliontonnes CO
2e rom 2008 to 2011. It can
be seen that the emissions reportedhave gone down in CDP 2011.

Clearly, the drive to engage
in Climate Change mitigation
starts rom the top within
the group. In addition to this
the increasing customer andshareholder pressure or

CDP is committed to increasing
the level o verication o emissions
disclosures in order to improve the
quality o the inormation submitted
by companies globally. In turn, this
will build trust in carbon reporting and
lead to an increase in the use o the
data in analysis and decision making.
Key drivers or verication include
the increasing market demand rom
investors, customers, regulators, non-
governmental organizations and other
stakeholders or assured and reliable
climate data.
Improved internal management
processes that can be harnessed or
competitive advantage is a key benet
o verication. In order to support this
drive, CDP rewards verication highly
in both disclosure and perormance
scoring in 2011 and it is one o the
criteria or entry into the CPLI.
Verifcation levels in 2011:
In 2011, a number o criteria were
introduced to determine what is
accepted as verication within CDPs
scoring methodology. It requires that a
verication statement:
1. Is related to the relevant emission
scope
2. Clearly states the type o verication
that has been given and the
verication standard used
3. Covers the current reporting year
4. Is undertaken by an independent
third party
Verication o emissions has decreased
in this report because CDP has
strengthened its criteria to refect
the importance o verication. 37%
(17) o respondents stated that they
had gained or were in the process o
gaining verication o Scope 1 and 2
emissions.
What is CDP doing to support
reporting companies?
For 2012, CDP is providing urther
clarity on what constitutes an
acceptable verication process, which
will be communicated as part o the
questionnaire consultation process
in September 2011. Looking urther
ahead, CDP has launched a verication
white paper and consultation on a
verication roadmap (2013-2018)
aiming to encourage more companies
to veriy their climate data. Visit

Scope 1 & 2 Emissions:
Total reported emissions or Scope1 and Scope 2 in CDP 2011 havedecreased to 80.75 and 9.46 milliontonnes o CO
2e respectively rom 90.53
and 16.22 million tonnes o CO2e
reported in CDP 2010. The decreasein emissions has been observed aterthree consecutive years o risingemission gures (see Figure 12), and isseen despite the increase in number ocompanies reporting on Scope 1 andScope 2 emissions in CDP 2011.
89% (41) companies reported Scope 1emissions compared to 33 companieslast year, representing an increaseo 24%; 87% (40) o companieshave reported Scope 2 emissionscompared to 18 companies in CDP2010 registering a more than two-old
increase in the number o respondentsthat disclose Scope 2 emissions.
When considering the individual sectors,Materials reported the largest amounto Scope 1 emissions, contributing43% o the total disclosed emissions,ollowed by the Energy and Utilitiessectors with 23% and 18% o reportedemissions respectively (see Figure15). Similarly, regarding Scope 2emissions, the Consumer Staplessector has the highest share with 33%o total disclosed emissions, ollowedby Industrials, Materials and Energy
sectors, each contributing 18%, 17%and 12% respectively (see Figure 16).
The our energy intensive sectors i.eMaterials, Energy, Utilities and Industrialstogether account or more than 90%o combined Scope 1 and Scope 2emissions reported in CDP 2011.
Reporting trends urther reveal thatcompanies both in high and low energyintensive sectors possess equally highawareness and willingness to controland disclose their emissions.
A constructive trend and increasedocus on emissions monitoring is thusseen in a majority o the reportingcompanies. 89% (41) have reportedtheir Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.However, o these 41 companies, 44%(18) have excluded one or more aspecto their operations rom reporting. Forinstance, 61% (11) o the 18 companie
did not report on emissions rom oneor more oce sites, either Indian oroverseas. Similarly, 17% (3) o thesecompanies have excluded emissionsrom company owned vehicles and useo LPG on the premises.

Scope 3 Emissions:
The Scope 3 emissions reported to CDP2011 has decreased to 2.96 milliontonnes CO
2e rom seven million tonnes
CO2e in 2010 and our million tonnes
CO2e in 2009.
54 % (25) o respondents o CDP 2011have disclosed quantitative Scope 3emissions.
With increasing emphasis onverication and assurance o emissiongures, it is pertinent to note that the
disclosed Scope 3 emissions o over52% (13) o the respondents have notbeen assured or veried. This clearlyindicates that reporting on Scope3 emissions needs more attention.
The Scope 3 gures o 48 % (12) orespondents have either been veriedor verication is underway. 60% (15) othe respondents who have disclosedtheir Scope 3 emissions have indicatedthat their Scope 3 emissions haveincreased compared to the previousyears. This could be attributed to various
reasons such as increase in headcount,increased logistics operations, overallimproved measurement o Scope 3emissions among others. 24 % (6) orespondents disclosed their Scope 3emissions or the rst time and 8% (2)o those who disclosed their Scope 3gures reported a decrease comparedto the previous year.
A mapping o the Scope 3 emissionsto identiy the primary sources revealeda trend similar to CDP 2010. For
CDP 2009, 96% o reported Scope3 emissions were on account obusiness travel. In CDP 2010, thisgure decreased to 43.5%, which in

CDP 2011 has urther decreased to35% (1.03 million tonnes CO

indicates that Indian business is in theprocess o adopting alternatives tobusiness travel.
A surprising shit in the trend oScope 3 emission sources is a sharpincrease in the emissions disclosedrom transportation and distribution oproducts. These emissions stood at54% (1.59 million tonnes) accounting othe biggest chunk o Scope 3 emissionscompared to the mere 8% o the totalScope 3 emissions reported in CDP
2010. Employee commuting accountsor 5% (0.16 million tonnes) o Scope 3emissions reported by the companieswhile other parameters such as wastegenerated in operations, courier, sale oelectricity, use o paper products etc.accounted or 6% ( 0.165 million tonneso the reported emissions.
This has decreased signicantlycompared to the 46.5% that itcontributed to, in CDP 2010.

Chapter 1: 2011 Carbon Disclosure Scores
Disclosure score highlights
Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index(CDLI)
For the second year in India,company responses to the InvestorCDP inormation request arescored according to CDPs scoringmethodology. This methodologyprovides or the analysis o companyresponses in terms o both disclosure the comprehensiveness o a response- and perormance, the companyscontribution to action on climate changemitigation and adaptation. When the
methodology is applied this results incompanies receiving a disclosure scoreand, where sucient disclosure exists, aperormance band.
In 2010, responding companiesreceived a disclosure score only. Forthe rst time in 2011, the perormanceaspect o the scoring methodology hasbeen introduced or the India 200.

shows a diverse mix of sectors such as
Materials, Utilities, Information technology,
Financials and Consumer staples.
This suggests that awareness of climatechange and its importance to businesses is
not conned to only some sectors.
There is an increasing level of interest in the
climate change by the executive manage-
ment and it is expected that there will soon
be a visible percolation to businesses in the
supply chain of these organizations.

It can be seen rom the scoresthat the standard o disclosure issteadily improving among India 200respondents; the average disclosurescore in the CDLI in 2011 is 77, up 5points rom the average CDLI scoreo 72 in the year o 2010. The highestdisclosure score in 2011 is 86, whichis only slightly lower than 87 in 2010.
This may be due to the increasing

What does a
perormance band
represent?
Companies scored on disclosure whoachieve a suciently high score, overa qualiying threshold o 50, receive aperormance band. Disclosure scoreso less than 50 do not necessarilyindicate poor perormance; rather,they indicate insucient inormation toevaluate perormance. However, it is
reasonable to assume that companieswhich do not disclose well may not betaking much action on climate change.
Perormance is grouped in six bands:A, A-, B, C, D and E which are denedby the ollowing characteristics.
To achieve the highest perormanceband (A), companies not only haveto achieve a disclosure score o 50or above, and a perormance scoregreater than 70, but also meet theollowing requirements:

Drivers
India has made commitments to lower itsemissions intensity to the internationalcommunity and inaction could hurtIndias credibility.
India is set to undertake rapid expansionin infrastructure. However, it is equallycritical to account for the impact ofclimate change-related costs, while makingtechnological choices so that the countrydoes not lose out on pertinent opportunities.
India is particularly vulnerable to theimpact of climate change because largeportions of its growing population are:
Indias proactive stance can open diverse
avenues for the country to strengthenits global footing through:
Benets
If India is proactive, it will have moreleverage to press developed nationsto do their part by reducing emissionsand facilitating technology transfer,adaptation and nance.
A low-carbon development path wouldentail less dependence on fossil fuels andincreased investments in clean technology,resulting in increased energy security, jobcreation and economic growth.
By adopting low-carbon growth, India willcontribute to the mitigation of climatechange and encourage other nations todo the same. This will curb the adverseimpact of climate change the world over.

Chapter 2: Implications o Climate Change on
Indian Industry
Recognizing that climate change is amajor threat, India has engaged actively
in multilateral negotiations in the UNFramework Convention on ClimateChange, in a positive, constructive andorward looking manner.
The success o the national eortsby the Indian Government will besignicantly enhanced providedthe developed countries arm theirresponsibility or accumulated GHGemissions and ulll their commitmentsunder the UNFCCC to transer additionalnancial resources and climate riendly
technologies to support both adaptationand mitigation in developing countries.
India is determined that its per capitaGHG emissions will at no point exceedthat o the developed countries even asit pursues its development objectives.
Opportunities presented
by the challenge o climate
change
Indias economy is expected to continuegrowing at a rapid pace over the next 20years. An estimated three-ourths o theinrastructure that will be used in India in2030 is yet to be built. Thereore, Indiais presented with a unique opportunityto continue its rapid economic growthand develop its inrastructure through alow-carbon pathway. The benets o alow-carbon economy include meeting
the objectives o ast-paced economicgrowth and addressing the challenge oclimate change.
The transition to a low-carbon economycan drive sustainable growth, whilemanaging GHG emissions andaddressing the risks o climate change.
Although the Government o India (GoI)has already put in place numerouspolicy initiatives to promote mitigationand adaptation to climate change, acoordinated eort rom all sectors o the
industry, government and public will berequired to take India on its low-carbongrowth trajectory.

National Action Plan on Climate
Change
The National Action Plan on ClimateChange (NAPCC) was ormally unveiledin June 2008, endeavoring to outline thestrategy or conronting the challengeo sustaining economic growth, whilecoping with the global threat o climatechange. The NAPCC primarily aimsat identiying potential opportunitiesand delineating the path orward orimplementation o technologies thataddress Indias twin needs: sustainabledevelopment, and adaptation &mitigation o commercial emissions inan accelerated manner. The NAPCCoutlines the ocal components o thestrategy in the orm o eight NationalMissions, representing a multi-pronged,long-term and integrated strategy toachieve key goals in the context oclimate change.

Among the eight national missionsunder the NAPCC, the National Solar
Mission, National Mission or EnhancedEnergy Eciency and the NationalMission on Sustainable Habitat arethe key components o the strategyto achieve climate change mitigation-related objectives. The National Missionor a Green India outlines the nationsstrategy to enhance carbon sinks,increase the orest cover and preservebiodiversity. The ocus o the NationalMission or Sustaining the HimalayanEcosystem, and the National WaterMission is on strategies or adaptationto climate change and management onatural resources. Finally, the NationalMission or Strategic Knowledge orClimate Change will promote researchand development in the climate changesciences, including seeking internationalcooperation in technology development,setting up a climate change researchund and disseminating climate changeknowledge.
Post the COP15 (Conerence o theParties) in Copenhagen in 2009, Indiacommitted to reduce emissions intensity(GHG emissions per unit GDP) by 20-25% below the 2005 levels by 2020.
The climate change policies in India areocused to achieve the voluntary targets,while maintaining the growth o theeconomy.
Low Carbon Expert Group
It is important that the implementation oIndias eorts to combat climate changecan be channelled through a strategy
consistent with the national objectiveso poverty alleviation, sustainabledevelopment and inclusive growth. Forthis purpose, the Planning Commissioninstituted an Expert Group headed byDr. Kirit Parikh, the ormer member oIndias Planning Commission, to developa strategy or a low-carbon economyor India. The expert group consists omembers rom the government, industry,academia and civil society.
The mandate o the low-carbon expertgroup is to:
Reviewtheexistingstudiesonlow-
carbon growth conducted by variousorganizations.
Assesslow-carbonoptionsrelevant
to the Indian economy.
Draftanactionplancomprising
critical low-carbon initiatives.
Providealistofenablinglegislatures,
rules and policies to operationalizelow-carbon roadmap.
The Low carbon Expert Group hasidentied the ollowing ocus sectors:power, iron and steel, cement, buildingsand transportation.
Renewable Purchase Obligation and
Renewable Energy Certifcates
The Central Electricity RegulationCommittee (CERC) oversees theRenewable Purchase Obligations(RPO) and Renewable Energy Certicate
(REC) mechanism, which aims atmeeting the targets or renewableenergy specied in NAPCC. Under theNAPCC, the target or the purchase orenewable energy was set at 5% o thetotal grid power purchase or FY 09-10, with an increase by 1% every yearor the next decade. Obligated entities(OEs) such as distribution licensees,captive power plant owners and openaccess consumers will be mandated toulll RPOs.
CERC approved the detailed procedureor the REC mechanism on 1 June2010. RECs represent an aggregationo certain non-energy and societalbenecial attributes, e.g. environmentaland socio-economic benets, oelectricity generated rom renewableenergy sources and are an ideal solutionto challenges posed by RPOs. Theseattributes, embodied in the orm ocerticates, may be traded separatelyrom electricity. One REC will be issued
to renewable energy generator or oneMWh o renewable electrical energy ed
into the grid and the same will remainvalid or a period o one year rom thedate o issuance.
The promotion o renewable energythrough RPO and trading o RECs willincrease renewable energy generation inIndia, displace ossil uels and contributto Indias low-carbon growth.
