The Commission comprises of Secretaries of various Ministries under the chairmanship of Secretary, MNRE and has the following responsibilities:• Formulating policies and programmes for the development of new and renewable sources of energy; • Coordinating and intensifying research and development activities in new and renewable sources of energy; • Ensuring implementation of Government‟s policies in regard to all matters concerning new and renewable sources of energy. 2.1.2 In 1982, a separate Department of Non-conventional Energy Sources was created in the Ministry of Energy and entrusted with the charge of development and deployment of non-conventional energy sources and CASE was transferred to it. In 1992, DNES became a separate Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources (MNES). This Ministry was rechristened as Ministry of New and Renewable Energy in 2006 2.1.3 MNRE is the nodal Ministry of the Government of India for all matters relating to new and renewable energy. It is charged with the development and deployment of new and renewable energy systems and devices in 5 pursuance of the aims of energy security and energy independence. 2.3 The Ministry is headed by a Minister of New and Renewable Energy and a Secretary to the Government of India being the administrative head of the Ministry. The Secretary is principal adviser of the Minister on all matters of policy and administration within his Ministry. Various programmes of the Ministry are headed at the level of Joint Secretary /Scientist „G‟. The programmes of the Ministry are broadly organized into following categories : 1.

Development Priorities 2.6.1. During the past two decades or so renewable energy deployment has somewhat outpaced research and development effort. Consequently, the country remains a net importer of new and renewable energy products and services. This situation needs to be reversed on priority in order that the current pace of deployment cannot only be sustained but also further accelerated in keeping with the growing demand for energy of an expanding economy. Furthermore, current deployment has tended more towards replacement of coal rather than liquid fossil fuel. The priority of the 8 country is to develop substitutes for liquid, gaseous and solid fossil fuels, in that order. 2.7. Development Focus 2.7.1. Development effort will be made in close concert with corporates (public/domestic owned private) and scientific & technical institutions in order to make the domestic new and renewable energy industry globally competitive and a net foreign exchange earner at least by 2022. Development focus shall be on the following:i) Technology Mapping and Benchmarking; ii) Identifying Research, Development, Demonstration and Commercialization (RDDC) needs and facilitate execution of the same; iii) Standards, specifications and performance parameters of indigenously developed products & services to be at par or even excel international levels and further to facilitate industry in attaining the same; iv) Aligning costs of new and renewable products and services with international levels or even lower and further to facilitate industry in attaining the same; v) Facilitating industry to obtain appropriate international level quality assurance accreditation; vi) Facilitating industry to become internationally competitive and a net foreign exchange earner through (ii) to (v) above and related measures; and vii) Resources Survey, Assessment and Mapping. 9 2.8 Development Concerns 2.8.1 Development effort will be carried out keeping the following key concerns in view:i) RDDC will be product development oriented and carried out with active participation and involvement of the end user, who is the consumer or RDDC out put. In formulating RDDC projects, the end user will play a major role. Further, in laying down objectives and outputs of RDDC projects, the end user will be actively involved apart from ensuring his involvement during the entire RDDC phase, including RDDC output appraisal. Where industry is not the end user, the end user will be identified and made a part of the RDDC process, as above; ii) RDDC projects should invariably result in tangible and quantifiable outputs, including patents and peer reviewed scientific and technical papers of merit that are published in reputed journals apart from product development and its commercialization; iii) Inter-linkages and inter-dependencies of RDDC activity will need to be clearly established so as to eventually lead the development of an integrated system; iv) RDDC activity in the same broad area will invariably demonstrate improvement in outputs already obtained; and v) Technology demonstration of indigenously developed technologies, including technology validation under India conditions of imported technologies, processes, materials, components, sub-systems, products and services. Exemption to this condition could be given in rare cases where technology demonstration involves dual purpose and/or strategic technologies that subserve national energy security concerns. Even in such cases, import will be restricted to critical components only. 10 2.9. Standards, Specifications & Performance Parameters 2.9.1 The Bureau of Indian Standards would be assisted in reviewing and updating existing standards as also to develop and notify standards for new and renewable systems/devices for which standards have not yet been laid down at par or even higher than international levels. Guidelines for product specification and performance parameters will be developed and institutionalized. 2.10. Industry as R&D Partner 2.10.1. Renewable energy technologies are at different stages of development across the globe. In this connection, partnerships are being forged elsewhere to develop new and renewable energy products and services, including fusion technology. Although the country would have to go through the R&D process mainly on its own, beneficial international partnerships could be considered on a case by case basis. Further, as the task becomes even more daunting and challenging, R&D effort would necessarily have to be highly focused, output oriented, time-bound and cost-effective. Industry, as the end user of R&D, will have to be actively involved so that the output of research and development is gainfully utilized. Government will support such effort. 11 2.11. Key Development Areas 2.11.1 Area Summary 2.11.1.1.

Committee Composition 10.1 In order to facilitate faster approvals of RDD&D project proposals, it has been decided to categorize project proposals in terms of their cost and to set up Committees with different composition for each of the category for appraising and recommending projects for approval of competent authority. 10.2 For the purpose of appraising and recommending projects of budget up to Rs. one crore for approval of the competent authority in all areas of renewable energy except solar energy (solar thermal as well as solar photovoltaics), separate R&D Sectoral Project Appraisal Committees (RDSPACs) are being set up with the following composition: Sl.

Therefore, to meet the specific requirements of R&DD projects in the area of solar thermal and solar photovoltaics especially in view of the challenge of achieving grid parity as announced by the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission, it has been decided to have the following composition of the R&D Sectoral Project Appraisal Committees (RDSPAC) for the purpose of appraising and recommending R&DD projects of total project cost of up to Rs. five crore in these areas: Sl.

Procedure and Guidelines 11.1 Members cannot nominate others to take their place on the RD&D/ Project Appraisal Committees. However, Financial Adviser, MNRE may depute Director (IFD), MNRE as his representative, in case he is pre- occupied. Meetings of the RSPACs and RDPACs would be organized by the respective Groups/ Divisions depending upon the requirements. 11.2 As far as possible, R&D projects should be taken with industry as end-users to ensure that they are involved right from the conception stage of the project. Such projects should clearly quantify outputs that should be challenging and bench- marked to pre-identified aims. In order to make use of the R&D capabilities of the institutions for expansion of new and renewable energy in the country, core R&D Groups/ Centres need to be strengthened so as to take up advanced research involving other institutions and promote new and renewable energy in the country. 11.3 The Group Heads will identify experts in their respective subject areas for seeking comments on the prospective RD&D projects and will get them endorsed by the RDPACs. 11.4 Group Heads shall develop RD&D projects in consultation with the concerned industry/ institution/organizations of civil society including NGOs and may also solicit proposals through advertisements placed in newspapers and/or on the MNRE website. The concerned group in MNRE may also involve an expert R&D organization in evaluating the proposed project so as to generate good quality projects. The revised format, as given in Annexure, will be used for developing and submitting all new R&DD projects to the MNRE. The project proposals which have already been received in the old format will, however, be considered in the same format. 11.5 As and when RD&D proposals are received, the respective Group shall examine the same to ascertain the relevance of the projects in line with the guidelines of MNRE. In case, the proposal is not found relevant or deficient in critical information, the Group will intimate the PI accordingly. In all other cases, the concerned Group would seek comments/recommendations on the proposal from at least three referees. In each case, at least 2 referees should support the project. The measure of support should be considered by a rating of 60% or higher by each of the experts. 47 11.6 For project proposals with overall cost exceeding Rs. 1.0 crore, an Expert Committee would be deputed to visit the institution proposing the project to have on the spot assessment of the capabilities and capacity of the project team, and also to have an assessment of the available technical and administrative set up at the institution. A presentation would also be made by the PI of the project to the visiting team. The Expert Committee would submit a report to the Ministry for follow up actions. 11.7 In the cases when major changes/revision are suggested, the comments will need to be sent to the Principal Investigator for the revision of the proposal incorporating comments of the experts. The revised proposal shall be sent again to the same experts for final comments. 11.8 The concerned Committees would consider RD&D project proposals and would recommend the same to the competent authority. 11.9 Financial assistance for RD&D projects including the technology validation and demonstration projects that involve partnership with industry/civil society organizations should normally be restricted to 50% of the project cost. However, for any proposal from academic institutions, Government/non-profit research organizations and NGOs, Ministry may provide up to 100% funding. Private academic institutions, especially, engineering colleges will have to furnish a declaration that they do not levy and collect donations for admissions from the students at the time of applying for R & D grants. In case the project is sanctioned by the MNRE and it is subsequently brought to the notice of the MNRE that the donations are being collected, the grants would be cancelled; the institutions will be required to refund the grant released with interest and such institutions will be banned from getting grants from this Ministry. However, such institutions which get donations can be provided grants up to a maximum 50% of total budget for the project as applicable for industry. 11.10 The Technology Validation and Demonstration Projects involving industry shall generally cover the activities taken up after successful completion of a lab scale/ bench scale work either by industry and/or by lab/ institutions with a view to facilitate field evaluation and demonstration of the product(s), processes, technology, system-integration having potential to lead to their commercialization in the country. These projects may also support technologies sourced from other countries for assessing their suitability and adaptability under Indian conditions. 11.11 In case there is a request from industry for financial support in excess of the percentage indicated in Para 11.9 above and up to a maximum of 75% of the project cost, the same will have to be justified on the basis of expected time horizon for technological maturity and commercialization and its long-term cost competitiveness. 11.12 Ministry may provide up to 100% financial assistant as core support to R & D institutions for setting up specialized Centres of Excellence in the area of renewable energy on the basis of recommendations of RDSPAC/RDPAC as the case may be. 48 11.13 In order to facilitate procurement of equipment early, upto 50% of the total assistance minus institutional charges/overheads would be released initially along with the sanction depending on the requirements of equipment in the project. For projects where equipment cost exceeds 50% of the project cost, higher initial release may be considered by the Ministry. The balance assistance minus institutional charges/Overheads would be sanctioned as per yearly allocation based on achievement of aims and progress of implementation of the project. The final payment i.e. institutional charges/ overheads would be released only after successful completion of the project and review by a Monitoring Committee and on receipt of project completion report. 11.14 Projects having approved project cost of more than ` 1.0 crore on completion will be presented to the respective Appraisal Committees. Completed project reports shall be posted on MNRE website and hard copy will be placed in the Library. 11.15 For all projects that are approved by the Ministry, the concerned Group/ Division shall issue the sanction order and make all releases of financial assistance as per the policy guidelines. The project grant shall be utilized as per the “general terms & conditions of the grant for R&D/technology development project” as per revised Annexure, and the same be enclosed with sanction order for compliance. Copies of all sanction orders would be endorsed to R&D Policy and Coordination Division with a view to have consolidation of the information. 11.16 TA/DA as per entitlement and a sitting fee shall be provided to the members of the RDSPAC/RDPAC at the rate which would be decided as per separate sanction order. 11.17 Policy guidelines will be issued by the R&D Policy and Coordination Group in the MNRE and the database on all the projects sanctioned by the Ministry will continue to be dealt by the Group. The Concerned Groups will develop the RD&D project proposals and process them for their appraisal including organizing meetings of the Committees and issuing approved minutes etc. 49 CHAPTER 7 Names, designations and other particulars of the Public Information Officers / Appellate Authorities Appellate authority Tarun Kapoor, Joint Secretary Ministry of New and Renewable Energy Block No.14, CGO Complex, New Delhi-110003 Tel.No.24360359 Fax: 24367861 Sunanda Sharma, Economic Adviser Ministry of New and Renewable Energy Block No.14, CGO Complex, New Delhi-110003 Tel.No.24362728 Fax: 24361298 Dr. N.

Many cities around the world are setting targets and introducing polices for promoting renewable energy and reducing GHG emissions and the countries like Australia and USA are developing the solar cities. Several Indian cities and towns are experiencing rapid growth in the peak electricity demand. The local governments and the electricity utilities are finding it difficult to cope with this rapid rise in demand and as a result most of the cities/towns are facing electricity shortages. In this context, the “Development of Solar Cities” programme is designed to support/encourage Urban Local Bodies to prepare a Road Map to guide their cities in becoming „renewable energy cities‟ or „solar cities‟. The Ministry has already initiated various programmes in the Urban Sector for promoting solar water heating systems in homes, hotels, hostels, hospitals and industry; deployment of SPV systems/devices in urban areas for demonstration and awareness creation; establishment of „Akshya Urja Shops‟; design of Solar Buildings and promoting urban and industrial waste/ biomass to energy projects. The solar city programme aims to consolidate all the efforts of the Ministry in the Urban Sector and address the energy problem of the urban areas in a holistic manner. 2.0 What is a Solar City? The Solar City aims at minimum 10% reduction in projected demand of conventional energy at the end of five years, through a combination of enhancing supply from renewable energy sources in the city and energy efficiency measures. The basic aim is to motivate the local Governments for adopting renewable energy technologies and energy efficiency measures. In a Solar City all types of renewable energy based projects like solar, wind, biomass, small hydro, waste to energy etc. may be installed alongwith 93 possible energy efficiency measures depending on the need and resource availability in the city. 3.0 How do you identify a city for developing as Solar City? The city is identified based on city population, potential and commitment for adoption of renewable energy and energy conservation in the city activities, initiatives already taken by City Council/ Administration/ Private Developers/Industry/General Public in promoting renewable energy and energy conservation, regulatory measures taken on deployment of renewable energy technologies and their willingness to provide resources and sustenance of activities initiated under the program. The cities may have population between 0.50 lakh to 50 lakh, however, relaxation could be considered for special category States including North-Eastern States and hilly States, Islands and Union Territories. 4.0 Number of cities to be developed as Solar Cities A total of 60 cities/towns are proposed to be supported for development as Solar Cities during the 11th Plan period. At least one city in each State to a maximum of five cities in a State may be supported by the Ministry. 5.0 Objectives of the Solar City programme The Solar City programme aims • To enable and empower Urban Local Governments to address energy challenges at City - level. 94 • To provide a framework and support to prepare a Master Plan including assessment of current energy situation, future demand and action plans. • To build capacity in the Urban Local Bodies and create awareness among all sections of civil society. • To involve various stakeholders in the planning process. • To oversee the implementation of sustainable energy options through public - private partnerships. 6.0 Assistance to Urban Local Governments The program assists Urban Local Governments by providing financial assistance and technical help for: • Preparation of a master plan for increasing renewable energy supply and energy efficiency measures in the city • Setting-up institutional arrangements for the implementation of the master plan. • Awareness generation and capacity building activities. • Implementation of projects as per financial incentives under various programmes of MNRE. 95 7.0 Financial assistance under Solar City Programme Up to Rs. 50.00 Lakhs per city/town is provided depending upon population and initiatives decided to be taken by the City Council/ Administration as following details: • Up to Rs 10.00 lakhs for preparation of a Master Plan within a year alongwith few implementable Detailed Project Reports . • Up to Rs. 10.00 lakhs for setting up of Solar City Cell and it’s functioning for a period of three years. • Up to Rs. 10.00 lakhs for oversight of implementation during three years. • Up to Rs. 20 lakhs for capacity building and other promotional activities to be utilized in three years.

The program assists Urban Local Governments in: Preparation of a master plan for increasing energy efficiency and renewable energy supply in the city Setting-up institutional arrangements for the implementation of the master plan. Awareness generation and capacity building activities. The program aims at minimum 10% reduction in projected demand of conventional energy at the end of five years, which can be achieved through a combination of energy efficiency measures and enhancing supply from renewable energy sources. This document provides general methodology for preparing the master plan. 2.0 Methodology The master plan preparation process is divided into five steps: 1. Preparing energy base-line for year 2008 Energy base-line for the city is a detailed documentation of the existing energy demand and supply scenario for the city. Among other things, it consists of sector-wise energy consumption matrix and energy supply-mix for the base year. The main activities in preparation of the energy baseline are: 1.1 Sector wise (residential, commercial and institutional, industrial and municipal) data collection on energy consumption (electricity, petroleum products, coal, biomass, etc). a) Residential sector: In the residential (housing) sector electricity is the major source of energy for lighting and for powering home appliances (air-conditioning, refrigerators, fans, television, electric geysers, washing machines, water pumps, 102 etc.), while, LPG, piped natural gas, cooking. kerosene, biomass fuels are used for Potential sources of Data: Local electricity distribution company/electricity board/ State Electricity Regulatory Commission for data on electricity. Oil marketing companies for data on LPG, natural gas. PDS /oil marketing company for data on kerosene. Firewood/biomass sellers for estimation of biomass fuels used for cooking. b) Commercial and institutional sector: This sector includes all offices, shops, shopping centers, multiplexes, hotels, restaurants, advertisement bill boards etc and institutional buildings like hospitals, schools, colleges, hostels, jails, government offices, etc. The major sources of energy are electricity and LPG. In addition, a variety of fossil fuels may be used for power back-up e.g. diesel generators. In some cases, biomass fuels are also used for cooking and water heating. Potential sources of Data: Local electricity distribution company/electricity board// State Electricity Regulatory Commission for data on electricity. Oil marketing companies for data on LPG, diesel and other petroleum fuels. Firewood/ biomass sellesr for estimation of biomass fuels. BEE data on electricity consumption in commercial buildings. Local chambers of commerce and industries for data on distribution of different types of commercial establishments and typical energy consumption in commercial establishments. CPWD, MES, State PWD, Municipal Corporation, etc. for data on energy use in government buildings. State Pollution Control Boards for data on DG sets. 103 c) Industrial sector: This includes all types of industries falling within municipal limits. Other than the electricity, other fuels that are used include petroleum products (diesel, natural gas, naptha, furnace oil, etc), coal, biomass, etc. Potential sources of Data: Local electricity distribution company/electricity board/ State Electricity Regulatory Commission for data on electricity consumption. Public sector oil marketing companies for data on petroleum products. Firewood/ biomass sellers for estimation of biomass fuels. Local chambers of commerce and industries, District Industry Centre, MSME Service Institutes for data on distribution of different types of industries and data on energy use. State Pollution Control Boards for data on DG sets. d) Municipal sector: This includes municipal services (water pumping, street lighting, sewage treatment, etc). Here also the main source of energy would be electricity. Potential sources of Data: Sample Local electricity distribution company/electricity board/ State Electricity Regulatory Commission for data on electricity consumption. Municipal Corporation for electricity consumption in its facilities. Reports on energy audits of municipal services 1.2 surveys for understanding energy use patterns & efficiency of use Data collection from secondary sources (as described in 1.1 above) may not provide a complete information on energy consumption. Information on aspects such as, energy consuming appliances, consumption patterns, consumer preferences, efficiency of use , etc can be gathered through sample surveys. Sample surveys may cover aspects such as: Information on energy appliances/equipments used. Energy performance indicators or efficiency of utilization Reliability and cost of energy services/fuel supply 104 Consumption patterns and consumers preferences Experience with use of renewable energy systems Design and construction practices for different types of buildings having an impact on energy consumption 1.3 Preparation of energy baseline report Based on the collected secondary and primary data, energy baseline would be prepared for each sector. As far as possible the secondary data should be collected for at least 5 previous years, which helps in understanding the trends and help in predict sectoral growth rates. Good data is essential for energy planning and as the number of sources of data is large, it is not easy for the consultant to collect all the data in a limited time period. In order to facilitate data collection, it is advisable that the Municipal Corporation should organize a meeting (or inception workshop) of all concerned departments/institutions at the beginning of the project. In such a meeting the consultant can make a presentation on the data requirements and Municipal Corporation can identify right agencies that would provide data to the Consultant. Municipal Corporation and MNRE should also write letters to all concerned agencies introducing the project, with a request for providing data. 2.0 Demand Forecasting for 2013/2018 This step involves predicting the energy demand for 5 year and 10 year periods. To estimate the demand, growth in energy use in different sectors needs to be established. These growth rates are established based on immediate past trends and future growth plans. Thus, the consultant would have to study various growth plans which may impact energy use in the city. These include: City development plans JNNURM master plan Electricity infrastructure/utility plans Industry and business forecasts by local chambers of commerce and industry Planning Commission documents Based on the past time-series data and information on growth plans, growth rate in energy demand for different sectors can be estimated. These growth 105 rates are used for making future projection of energy demand in each sector for year 2013 (five year) and 2018 (10 year). 3.0 Sector wise strategies This step involves carrying out techno-economic feasibility of different renewable energy and energy efficiency options for each sector and making a priority listing of the options. 3.1 Renewable Energy A renewable energy resources assessment should be done to identify the potential renewable energy sources for the city. This would include assessment of solar radiation, wind power density and availability, biomass resources and municipal/industrial wastes. The next step would be listing of all potential renewable energy technology options. An indicative list of renewable energy technologies/systems is given below. 3.1.1 Solar energy Thermal Systems i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) vii) Solar water heating systems Solar cookers (Box and dish type) Scheffler cookers for indoor cooking Solar steam generating systems Solar drying/air heating systems Solar refrigeration and air conditioning plants Solar concentrators for process heat applications Photovoltaic Systems viii) Solar lanterns ix) Solar home lighting systems x) Solar generators xi) Street light solar control systems xii) Solar hoardings xiii) Solar street light/garden lights xiv) Solar traffic lights xv) Solar blinkers xvi) Road studs xvii) Solar power packs xviii) Building integrated photovoltaic xix) SPV power plants for decentralization applications 106 xx) Roof top plants for replacing DG gensets xxi) Solar charging stations 3.1.2 Biomass & Waste to Energy Projects i) Power projects based on Municipal and Urban Waste and also on industrial waste through combustion/bio-methanation technologies ii) Power projects based on methane available from STPs iii) Bo-mass gasification and co-generation projects in industries iv) Biomass gasifies based crematoriums v) Projects on methane utilization for thermal & electrical applications in industries 3.1.3 Wind turbines for power generation 3.1.4 Miro-hydel plants 3.1.5 Solar passive architecture in buildings/housing complexes Major components of solar passive architecture are orientation of building, sun shades, double glazed windows, smart glazing window overhangs, thermal storage wall/roof, roof painting, ventilation, evaporative cooling, day lighting, wind towers, earth air tunneling, construction materials etc. Incorporation of specific components will depend in which climatic zone the building is being constructed. A sector-wise techno-economic analysis of potential renewable energy technologies should be done. Both, decentralized and centralized options should be considered. The goal will be that renewable energy should be able to reduce at least 5% of the projected total demand of conventional energy at the end of five years. 4.0 Energy Efficiency (EE) and Demand side management (DSM) While renewable energy technologies would provide clean energy, EE and DSM measures would help in reducing the energy demand. An indicative list of EE and DSM measures for different sectors is shown below: Municipal sector Water pumping: Generally, there is a potential of 15-25% energy savings in the municipal water pumping systems. 107 Street lighting: Energy savings are possible with efficient lighting and control systems Commercial and institutional buildings Lighting: Use of efficient lighting and control systems HVAC: Use of efficient HVAC systems EE in new buildings: Energy savings are possible by following the guidelines as given in Energy Conservation Building Codes (ECBC) Storage: Thermal storage for peak demand reduction Residential Lighting: Use of efficient lighting (e.g. CFL and T5) and control systems Appliances: Use of BEE star rated appliances EE in new housing: Simple guidelines could be made/building bye-laws can be amended to achieve energy savings Industrial Lighting: Use of efficient lighting and control systems Energy efficiency in motors, furnaces, boilers, etc. A sector-wise techno-economic analysis of potential energy efficiency and DSM measures should be carried out. 5.0 Stakeholders Consultations Stakeholders‟ consultation is a very important step in master plan preparation. Two stakeholders‟ consultations are suggested (excluding the inception workshop) -- one immediately after the analysis of sector-wise strategies; and one towards the end to discuss the draft master plan. The participants can include elected representatives, local research and academic institutions, resident welfare associations, industries and corporate organizations, NGOs, SNA, etc. Stakeholders committee formed under JNNURM scheme could also be consulted. 108 6.0 Implementable Project Proposals/DPRs The Master Plans should contain few good proposals for implementable projects and few good DPRs that emerged out of interaction with various quarters. These projects will be called the pilot projects. 7.0 Preparation of master plan The outline of the master plan document as per MNRE prescribed format is enclosed as Annexure-I. 109 Annexure-I Indicative guidelines for preparing Master Plan & organizing other activities for City to be developed as a ‘Solar City’ Master Plan Projection for energy demand and supply for 10 years Sector Wise Total Base line of energy utilization & GHG emissions Residential Commercial/Industrial Institutional Municipal Services GHG emission Energy Planning (Sector-wise) I) Resources II) Options for energy savings & demand reduction III) Supply side option based on renewables IV) Techno-economic of energy conservation & measures 4 Year-wise goals of savings in conservation energy through demand side management & supply side measures based on renewables 5 Action Plan for achieving the set goals & expected GHG abatements. This will include capacity building and awareness generation. 6 Budget estimates and potential sources of funding from respective sources (both public and private) Note: Before finalization, the Master Plan would be discussed in a Stakeholders Consultation Workshop having representation from elected representatives, local research ad academic institutions, resident welfare associations, industries and corporate organization, NGOs, SNA, etc. The Master Plan will set a goal of minimum 10% reduction in projected total demand of conventional energy at the end of five years to be achieved through energy saving from energy efficiency measures and generation from renewable energy installations.
