The Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) has accepted the recommendations of the deviation settlement mechanism (DSM) working group and deferred the levy of state periphery charges until further notice. The MERC said that the state periphery charges already collected from renewable generators by the Maharashtra State Load Dispatch Center (MSLDC) from January 6, 2020, to April 27, 2020, should be adjusted toward the future payment of pooling substation charges of the respective renewable generators.
