The Rajasthan Electricity Regulatory Commission rejected a petition filed by Shree Cement seeking the grant of a load factor rebate by Jaipur Vidyut Vitran Nigam (JVVNL) for electricity consumption at its Jobner cement unit. The Commission held that the company’s captive solar project qualifies as a behind-the-meter installation and is therefore not eligible for load factor computation under the applicable tariff order.
