Singapore, March 9 : Although Indian renewable energy companies failed to meet generation targets in fiscal years 2019 and 2020 that ended in March 2019 and March 2020 respectively, they will be able to withstand the impact of this underperformance thanks to large and diversified portfolios, according to a report by Moody s Investors Service. About 15%-20% of Indian wind and solar projects did not meet capacity utilization targets in fiscal years 2019 and 2020 because of wind generation curtailments and lower irradiance for solar projects, which were responsible for 56% and 68% of the underperformance respectively, said Abhishek Tyagi, a Moody s Vice President and Senior Analyst.
Moody s Investors Service in its latest report said that close to 15-20 per cent of wind and solar power projects underperformed during 2019-20. However, with portfolio diversification, a lot of green energy companies will withstand the slowdown, it said. Moody s said India s renewable energy sector grew by 20 per cent in the last five years. About 15-20 per cent of Indian wind and solar projects did not meet capacity utilisation targets in fiscal years 2019 and 2020 because of wind generation curtailments and lower irradiance for solar projects, which were responsible for 56 per cent and 68 per cent of the underperformance respectively,” says Abhishek Tyagi, a Moody’s Vice President and Senior Analyst. As a result, rated renewable energy companies’ EBITDA declined 2-5.6 per cent in fiscal 2020, said the report.
