(1) Any captive consumer, using the transmission and/or distribution system of the licensee for wheeling the energy generated from the Renewable Energy System to a different location within the State, shall pay the following charges approved by the Commission from time to time,- a. Transmission charges b. Wheeling charges c. Transmission losses and Distribution losses, and d. Any other charges approved by the Commission. (2) Captive consumers who maintain the contract demand with the distribution licensee are required to pay transmission charges only on per unit basis at the rates as approved by the Commission from time to time. (3) Captive consumers under these Regulations are permitted to install Renewable Energy System at their premise irrespective of their connected load or contract demand, to offset their energy consumption on annual basis, subject to the terms and conditions specified in these Regulations. Provided that, as a promotional measure, such consumers are permitted to inject energy into the grid during any time period and to draw back the energy during any other time period subject to the condition specified in sub-Regulation (5) below and without enhancing the connected load/contract demand up to the RE capacity. Provided further that such consumers shall be required to pay 5% of the energy injected into the grid from the RE plant as 'grid support charges'. (4) If the net energy, after deducting the approved transmission and/or distribution loss, injected from the renewable energy system during a time period (normal hours, peak hours and off-peak hours) in a billing period is fully consumed by the captive consumer during the same time period (normal hours, peak hours and off-peak hours) in that billing period itself, for such quantum of electricity, the captive consumer is exempted from the banking charges. (5) The captive consumer is permitted to consume the electricity injected from the Renewable Energy System during a time period (normal hours, peak hours and off-peak hours), in a different time period (normal hours, peak hours and off-peak hours) during the same billing period, subject to the following conditions,-- (i) 80% of the net energy injected in time periods other than peak hours, be allowed to adjust against peak hour consumption. (ii) The net energy injected during peak hours shall be allowed to be adjusted 100% during the peak hour and the balance shall be allowed to be adjusted 120% during other time blocks. (iii) At all other time periods, except energy injection during peak hours, 100% of the net energy injected in any time periods will be allowed to adjust against the consumption, during the time period other than peak hours. (6) The excess energy, if any, available at the end of the billing period is allowed to be banked and carried forward to the subsequent billing period of the settlement period, subject to the following,- (iii) 95% of the energy so banked only be allowed to be adjusted in the subsequent billing period of the settlement period and 5% of the banked energy shall be accounted towards banking charges of the distribution licensee. (iv) Time period wise adjustment of the energy generated in a time period and accounted against the consumption in different time period during the billing period shall be followed as detailed under clause (5) above. Note: The 5% banking charges on the energy banked at the end of billing period shall not be cumulative, i.e., once 5% energy is deducted as banking charges during a billing period, no further banking charges will be applicable for this excess energy, if any arising out of such banked quantum of energy in the subsequent billing periods. Clarification: For example, in the month of April, 50000 units is the surplus energy with the prosumer after making the adjustments as detailed under Sub Regulation (3) above. The energy banked in the month of April after accounting for banking charges shall be (50000x0.95) 47500 units. Thereafter in the month of May, 20000 units is the surplus energy with the prosumer after making the adjustments as detailed under Sub Regulation (3) above. Here the energy banked in the month of May shall be (20000x 0.95) 19000 units, and the total energy so banked at the prosumer account at the end of the month May shall be 47500+19000 = 66500 unit. (7) The licensee shall pay, within one month, for the net surplus energy available at the credit of the prosumer at the end of the settlement period as per sub Regulation (4) above, at the Average Pooled Power Purchase Cost (APPC)of the licensee approved by the Commission, from time to time. (8) The quantum of energy from the Renewable Energy System generated and consumed by the captive consumer during the settlement period after accounting for its RPO, if any, shall be permitted to be accounted towards the RPO of the distribution licensee. (9) The above accounting shall be valid only till the time intra state deviation settlement mechanism put in place.
