Solar companies ask regulators of Haryana, Uttarakhand to remove bottlenecks

Solar developers have moved the power regulators of Haryana and Uttarakhand to smoothen out anomalies which are impeding the growth of solar capacity in these two states. According to news sources, in one petition, the Distributed Solar Power Association (DISPA) has noted that the regulator, the Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission (HERC) has yet to implement a key recommendation of the Haryana Solar Policy announced in March 2016. In another, it has appealed to the Uttarakhand Electricity Regulatory Commission (UERC) to remove the limit of 500 kW it has imposed on the size of rooftop solar plants.
