Re introduction of Accelerated Depreciation ie AD and Generation Based Incentive ie GBI for wind energy in India is likely !!The renewable energy ministry is planning to re-introduce incentives for the wind energy sector to allay fears that capacity addition could fall after the sops were withdrawn from April 1. The government rolled back two key incentives for the sector this year: accelerated depreciation and generation-based incentive. Industry players say the withdrawal of these sops will keep power producers at bay and could reduce annual capacity addition to less than 1,000 mw in 2012-13, against the target of 3,000 mw. http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/news-by-industry/energy/power/government-may-re-introduce-sops-for-wind-farms/articleshow/12873801.cms-more»
