The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) has issued a public notice inviting comments, suggestions, and objections on a petition filed by the Indian Energy Exchange Ltd. (IEX) seeking approval to introduce a Green Real Time Market (G-RTM) on its platform. This public notice was issued on April 7, 2025.
IEX, through Petition No. 277/MP/2024, has requested the CERC’s approval to launch a dedicated G-RTM within its existing Real Time Market (RTM) segment. This proposed market would facilitate exclusive trading in Renewable Energy (RE).
The proposed G-RTM is aimed at promoting the integration of renewable energy into the electricity market. It could potentially:
- Enhance the flexibility and efficiency of renewable energy trading.
- Provide greater market access for renewable energy generators.
- Contribute to the country’s renewable energy goals.
The CERC, as the regulatory body for the electricity sector in India, plays a crucial role in ensuring the development of a competitive and efficient electricity market. The public consultation process is an integral part of its decision-making process.
The CERC is seeking feedback from all stakeholders on IEX’s proposal. This public consultation aims to ensure that the commission considers diverse perspectives before making a decision.
Interested parties can submit their comments, suggestions, and objections in writing to:
- Secretary, Central Electricity Regulatory Commission, 7th Floor, Tower B, World Trade Centre, Nauroji Nagar, New Delhi- 110029.
Alternatively, submissions can be sent via email to:
- secy@cercind.gov.in or
- chiefeco@cercind.gov.in
The deadline for submitting feedback by any concerned stakeholders is April 23, 2025.
