- (b) if so, the details thereof;
- (c) the details in regard to commencement of each of such projects in the country; and

## A N S W E R

THE  MINISTER  OF  STATE  (INDEPENDENT  CHARGE)  FOR  POWER,  NEW  & RENEWABLE ENERGY AND THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR SKILL DEVELOPMENT & ENTREPRENEURSHIP

( SHRI  R.K. SINGH)

(a)  to  (d)  :    As  per  Electricity  Act  2003,  the  generation  is  a  de-licensed activity. Thus, the investment in setting up of power projects is made by the concerned developers. Therefore, no funds are sanctioned/allocated by the Government of India in this regard, except contribution in equity of the Central Public Sector Units for setting up of such projects on a case-to-case basis.

As  far  as  solar  and  wind  energy  projects  in  the  country  are concerned, Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) publishes the results after  e-Reverse  Auction  (e-RA)  and  list  of  commissioned  projects  under Solar, Wind, Hybrid and Rooftop schemes under the "RTI" section of SECI's official  website,  www.seci.co.in,  and  the  same  is  updated  on  a  monthly basis.  Once award is placed, the project comes under on-going category. The details of under construction thermal power projects in the country are given in Annexure-I.  The details of under construction/ongoing solar and wind power projects are given at Annexure-II and Annexure-III respectively.
