India aims to enhance self-reliance in solar PV manufacturing through targeted policies.
The government has extended the exemption for net-metering and open access RE projects from complying with the Approved List of Models & Manufacturers (ALMM) List-II till December 31, 2026. Previously set to expire on May 31, 2026, this move aims to support domestic solar PV module manufacturers and their existing inventories, aligning with India's self-reliance goals in solar manufacturing.
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) clarified there's no change in the ALMM Policy but provided a limited exemption window for specific projects. This exemption allows net-metering and open access RE power projects to commission without ALMM List-II compliance for solar PV cells until the new deadline.
The decision is expected to protect investments of standalone solar PV module manufacturers through additional demand creation, giving them time to increase sourcing from ALMM List-II enlisted manufacturers as solar cell capacity grows.
