The Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission (RERC) has allowed a wind power developer to claim compensation on a change-in-law event arising from expenses incurred on installing bird flight diverters at its 151.2 MW wind projects located in the Great Indian Bustard habitat. The Commission allowed carrying costs from the time the wind developer, Apraava Renewable Energy, filed the petition to the issuance of this order. The Commission also ordered that carrying costs will be recovered in annuity payments at a discount rate of 9%. The annuity payments will be made for 15 years or for the remaining period of the power purchase agreement (PPA), whichever is shorter.
