Dear Colleagues,
Explore India's sizable solar potential with the latest issue of the India Solar Compass:
Ascertaining India's Plans for a Seismic Shift to Solar
• BRIDGE TO INDIA marks the momentum in this market with a focus on the National Solar Mission, on Gujarat and on the other states that have been early movers.
• Solar is rising in scale as a result of innovations from the global domain deployed in the Indian market, but delays have clouded the forecast for on-grid generation capacity.
• From a paltry 24MW of commissioned projects in 2010, power purchasing agreements (PPAs) worth 1.6GW for grid-connected installations have been signed.
• BRIDGE TO INDIA analyzes the slow pace of converting PPAs to commissioned on-grid projects.
Comprehending Credit Dilemmas: Banking for Solar Projects
• BRIDGE TO INDIA analyzes the thorny issues of financing for grid connected solar projects.
• Low tariffs, lack of credible estimates of insolation, and unreliable PPAs have led to banks being unwilling to provide non-recourse finance. EPC contractors faced with contract clauses for untenable performance guarantees find that they are asked to take on unusual risks.
• Banks are on a learning curve, while projects struggle to raise capital adequate to their plans as project financing has been stunted for want of credit guarantees.
• An interview with Jigar Shah, who pioneered SunEdison's solarpower services agreement business model.
Tracking the State of the Industry: A Business-driven, Precise, Analytical and Up-to-date View
• The Indian Solar Compass is a quarterly market report, about 25 pages long based on BRIDGE TO INDIA's project experience and derived from our strong industry network.
