The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy
("MNRE") vide office memorandum dated
November 6, 2019 has clarified that the RPO of OE consuming energy
from hybrid wind-solar power plants shall be based on the relative
proportion of energy contributed by each source and must be
calculated based on the ratio of declared capacities of each source
in the PPAs. However, if the actual installed capacity of each
source is different from that declared in the PPA, then the OE
would have the option to choose the proportion of each source based
on actual ratios of capacities installed of each source, and not
the capacity mentioned in the PPA.
