The electric energy produced is used for lighting residential and commercial establishments.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why has the government issued an Approved<\/b><b> List of Models and Manufactures(<\/b><b>ALMM) for Solar Photovoltaic Modules?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since solar PV power installations are set up for a period of 25 years and solar PV cells and modules used in plants require long-term warranty, it is desirable to ensure that such products are indeed made in units in which production has been claimed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is possible that some units may claim production of solar cells &amp; modules produced or made elsewhere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reliability of such producers is essential to protect consumer interests and ensure the larger energy security of the Country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accordingly, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) issued an Approved List of Models and Manufacturers(ALMM) of Solar Photovoltaic Modules Order in 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ALMM Order states that ALMM shall consist of LIST-I, specifying models and manufacturers of Solar PV Modules and LIST-II, specifying models and manufacturers of Solar PV Cells.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only the models and manufacturers included in ALMM List-I (of solar PV modules) are eligible for use in Government Projects\/ Government assisted Projects\/ Projects under Government Schemes &amp; Programmes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As of date, ALMM List consists of 91 no of module manufacturing facilities (all domestic) with the aggregate solar PV module manufacturing capacity of 22,389 MW per year.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: The post is based on the article \u201cMNRE announces major reforms in the Approved List of Models and Manufactures for Solar Photovoltaic Modules\u201d published in PIB on 15th May 2023 What is the News?
