India has provided a Line of Credit (LOC) worth USD 100 million to Sri Lanka for three solar projects in the country, according to a main declaration. India's high commissioner to Sri Lanka Gopal Baglay had contacted the priest of power Dullas Alahapperuma and stated India's commitment in the direction of a solid as well as multi-faceted reciprocal partnership consisting of in the power market, the Indian objective stated in a statement. Based on the declaration, they went over various problems of mutual interest consisting of means to quicken progress on bilateral power projects currently controversial in between both sides. The Indian agent likewise turned over a duplicate of a letter sharing a deal from India to Sri Lanka for a Line of Credit (LoC) worth USD 100 million for three solar projects introduced throughout the International Solar Alliance Founding Conference held in March 2018 in New Delhi, the declaration claimed. The LoC will cover funding for rooftop solar systems meant for 20,000 households and 1,000 federal government buildings all across the island. The mixed generation capability of these roof systems will certainly be about 60 MW, it said. The LoC will certainly also provide financing for a floating solar energy plant. The implementation of the LoC will certainly start with the verdict of an LoC arrangement between both sides, it stated. The Indian high commissioner conveyed that the USD 100 million LoC is in line with the nationwide priorities of India and also Sri Lanka to improve the share of solar as well as renewable resource in total power generation, the statement added. In March, the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) in Sri Lanka had released a Request for Proposal (RfP) inviting proposals from qualified companies for the establishment of 150 MW solar PV nuclear power plant in 1-10 MW capabilities on a Build, Own and Operate Basis under the Sooraya Bala Sangramaya Phase-- III.

private power distribution company in India issued a tender to procure energy from solar-wind hybrid projects with a goal to fulfill its Renewable Purchase

India plans to build a string of renewable energy projects along its sun-baked, wind-whipped western border, officials said Monday (Oct 21), as New Delhi continues an ambitious programme to reduce the country's dependence on fossil fuels. Mired in an economic slowdown, the government has tripled spending over the last three years as part of its push to cut down the use of oil and coal. "We are studying land feasibility and have identified projects worth 30 gigawatt capacity for Gujarat and 25 gigawatt capacity for Rajasthan," Anand Kumar, new and renewable energy secretary, told AFP. The government had zeroed in on barren desert areas in a bid to avoid using agricultural land, he said, adding the sunny and windy region was ideally suited to renewable energy facilities. Work on the projects would begin roughly 18 months after approval from the defence ministry and following land feasibility studies, he said. "These projects will help reduce India's carbon footprint and adhere to promises made at the 2015 Paris agreement," Kumar said. India currently harnesses 23 percent of its total power from renewable sources, including solar and wind. R.K. Singh, minister for power and renewable energy, told parliament in July that India's capacity had crossed 80 gigawatts and was on track to reach 175 gigawatts in three years' time, as pledged by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. However, private investment in the renewable sector remains low, and the government has found securing land for projects difficult. Renewable energy projects are not feasible in agricultural or forest lands, said Amit Bhandari of Mumbai-based think tank Gateway House. "Since most of these western border areas are wastelands or semi-desert, they are perfect for setting up these projects," he told AFP. Meanwhile, investment in fossil fuel-based energy sources continues to rise in the South Asian nation, with both French energy giant Total and Saudi Arabia's Aramco buying stakes in Indian companies.

Minister Narendra Modi chaired a union cabinet that approved the MOU between India’s ministry of energy and their Saudi Arabia counterparts to cooperate in

incentives for high-efficiency solar modules as it intends to make India "a global manufacturing hub" in the renewables industry. Speaking at the

PV modules, this will be increased to INR 240 billion (US$ 3.22 billion), said India's priest of brand-new and also renewable energy, RK Singh. A request to
