CERC Seeks Public Input on IEX Green Real Time Market Proposal

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:

  1. Enhance the flexibility and efficiency of renewable energy trading.
  2. Provide greater market access for renewable energy generators.
  3. 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.
