<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt">National Wind-solar Hybrid Policy blueprint has eased ambitious target of reaching 175 GW of installed capacity from renewable energy sources by the year 2022, which includes 100 GW of solar and 60 GW of wind power capacity. Solar and Wind resources are complementary to each other and hybridization of these two technologies would help in minimizing the variability apart from optimally utilizing the infrastructure including land and transmission system, reducing the variability in renewable power generation and achieving better grid stability. Superimposition of wind and solar resource maps shows that there are large areas where both wind and solar have high to moderate potential.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size:10pt">The existing wind farms have scope of adding solar PV capacity and similarly there may be wind potential in the vicinity of existing solar PV plant, in ratio of atleast 25%. Flexibility in connectivity at both DC &amp; AC side would encourage existing Wind/Solar Farms for such integration. End Consumers/Discoms will also reap benefit of compliance of both Solar &amp; Non-Solar RPO by honouring single PPA.</span></p>
