In news– The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs has approved the equity infusion of Rs.1500 crore in Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited (IREDA) recently.

Key updates-

  • This equity infusion will help in employment generation of approximately 10200 jobs-year and CO2 equivalent emission reduction of approximately 7.49 Million Tonnes CO2/year.
  • It will also enhance the specialized non-banking finance agency’s net worth, which will help it in additional financing, thereby contributing better to the government’s targets.
  • At COP26 in Glasgow last November, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced India’s aim to achieve net-zero emissions by 2070 and also committed to achieving 500 GW of installed electricity capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030.
  • The country has installed electricity generation capacity of 392 GW, constituting 209 GW of coal and 104 GW of renewables.

About IREDA-

  • IREDA is a Public Limited Government Company established as a Non-Banking Financial Institution in 1987 engaged in promoting, developing and extending financial assistance for setting up projects relating to new and renewable sources of energy and energy efficiency/conservation.
  • IREDA has been awarded “Mini Ratna” (Category -I) status in 2015 by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE).
  • IREDA’s Motto is “Energy for Ever”.
  • It plays a catalytic role in the RE project financing which gives confidence to the FIs/banks to lend in the sector.
  • It offers a credit enhancement guarantee scheme to support the issuance of bonds by wind and solar energy project developers. 
  • It aims to enhance the credit rating of bonds for renewable energy projects, thereby improving their marketability and liquidity, and attracting lower-cost and longer-term funding for project developers. 
  • The amount raised by credit enhanced bonds shall only serve to repay existing debt partially or fully.
