Coverage

Renewable Energy Coverage

Renewable energy projects are the second largest category in our coverage database. As Indian grid emission factors decline, additionality assessment has become more nuanced, particularly for large-scale grid-connected installations.

Pilot Projects Underway

We are currently working with early pilot cases in renewable energy to refine coverage workflows before publishing any ratings.

Key Insight

Grid-connected solar additionality is under increasing scrutiny.

As India's solar tariffs have fallen below grid power costs, the additionality argument for large grid-connected solar credits has weakened. Our analysis shows that off-grid and community solar credits in rural areas maintain stronger additionality cases than utility-scale installations.
