India has eased norms to allow commercial and industrial customers to switch to green sources of electricity as India targets to decarbonise its fossil fuel-driven economy. Consumers seeking open access to a clean energy source without being tied to the local distributor would have fewer surcharges to pay and get quick approvals. The threshold for such transactions is being reduced to 100 KW, from 1 MW, so smaller consumers enjoy the benefit. The new rules could quicken large power users to switch away from coal power, which produces over 70 per cent of electricity in India. Contact: Ministry of Power Website: powermin.gov.in
