on the draft regulations?
Draft regulations and amendments open for public comment — with the background material, ready-to-submit letters by stakeholder type, and a tool to build your own, all in one place.
Draft CEA (Technical Standards for Construction of Electric Plants and Electric Lines) 2nd Amendment, Regulations, 2026
Mandates grid-forming control on ≥15% of inverter capacity (and all co-located BESS PCS), plus mandatory co-located energy storage (10% capacity, 2–4 hour duration) for ground-mounted solar and on-shore wind plants commissioned after 1 Jul 2027.
Six letters, ready to submit — one per stakeholder type, taking a supportive-with-modifications stance. Download, add your letterhead and signature, and send to CEA by 04.10.2026.
- Cite the exact clause — Regulation 106B(20) — rather than commenting generally.
- Where you want a change, propose specific replacement wording, not just an objection.
- Keep your letter to your own stake — pick only the points genuinely relevant to you below.
- You must still send the generated letter to CEA yourself, by 04.10.2026 — by post or to celegal-cea@gov.in.

Log in Create free accountDraft CERC (Sharing of Inter-State Transmission Charges and Losses) (Fifth Amendment) Regulations, 2026
Amends the SIST (Sharing of Inter-State Transmission Charges and Losses) Regulations, 2020 across seven substantive points — BESS waiver tenure, multi-cycle charging treatment, G-DAM counted toward the 51% test, PSP contract-wise 51% tagging, a delayed-project waiver (new Table 6), netting of transmission deviation, and dual STU+CTU connectivity — plus housekeeping amendments. Deadline extended from 31.08.2026 to 15.09.2026.
A ready-to-adapt cover letter plus a 10-point clause-wise comment table (suggestion + justification per issue). These are genuine clarificatory drafting suggestions, not advocacy for a particular stakeholder position — review and adapt them to your organisation’s actual interests, then send to CERC by 15.09.2026.
A fill-in-the-blank worksheet with guiding questions for each of the 7 substantive changes, so your own team can draft independent comments rather than adapt the done-for-you letter above.
A few things worth flagging before you rely on this: the deadline is 15.09.2026 (extended from 31.08.2026) — confirm it hasn’t shifted again before submitting. Several changes (BESS multi-cycle tagging, PSP contract-wise tagging) aren’t yet operable — they depend on NLDC procedures due within 60 days of notification. The dual-connectivity provision is contingent on the still-draft GNA Fourth Amendment Regulations. Send comments to secy@cercind.gov.in / shilpa@cercind.gov.in or via the SAUDAMINI e-filing portal.
