Background of the Program
 GOI has set an ambitious growth target of installation of 175
GW aggregate capacity of renewable energy by 2022.
 Out of total 175 GW, target of 100 GW is set for Solar
Power under which 40 GW is to be achieved from GC RSPV.
 MNRE had approached SBI to develop a Program for
funding grid connected rooftop solar projects through WB
funds.
 As a result, SBI has prepared the Program for financing grid
connected rooftop solar projects.

SBI Commitment & Contribution
During RE-Invest 2015, 27 Banks gave commitment to
finance 78 GW of Renewable Energy projects.
SBI gave commitment of Rs 75,000 crore which would lead
to 15 GW of capacity addition.
The commitment given by the Bank translates to 19% of the
total commitment given by all the Banks.
Pursuant to the commitment, the Bank has sanctioned in
excess of Rs 7100 crore for 80 Renewable Energy projects
with a total capacity addition of 2435 MW as on September
30, 2016.

Business Models
Capex
Third Party
6

Capex Model
 The borrower sets up rooftop solar project with the intent to
reduce his own power costs. Residual power, if any, can be
feed to the grid.
 The Borrower would approach an EPC contractor for the
installation of the project. The O&M contract may be given to
the same EPC contractor or some other person.
 Debt servicing is dependent on the main business activity of
the Borrower.
 Financial appraisal would be like any other asset (e.g.
machinery) financing proposal.
7

Third Party Models
RESCO Model
AD Model
8

RESCO Model
 RESCO will develop the rooftop solar projects for its clients on
the agreed terms and conditions.
 RESCO would enter into a long term legally binding lease, right
to use or similar agreement for the roof on which solar project
will be installed.
 RESCO will also enter into a PPA for the supply of power. In
this model, the same RESCO is likely to take up multiple
projects consecutively and simultaneously across different
locations.
 RESCO would be borrower in Bank’s books and liable for
repayment of loan.

Sub Models under RESCO Model
BOOT(Build, Own, Operate &
Transfer)
BOOM(Build, Own, Operate &
Maintain)
Rooftop Rental
10

BOOT
 The RESCO constructs, owns, operates and transfers the
ownership of the rooftop solar project after expiry of contract
period or as per agreed terms.
 Generally, transfer of ownership is made, once the RESCO has
recovered its cost of capital and a suitable rate of return.
 After the transfer of ownership, the rooftop owner is
responsible for O&M and he may choose to retain the services
of the original RESCO or he may make his own arrangements
for O&M requirements.
11

BOOM
 RESCO constructs, owns, operates and maintains the project.
 RESCO typically ensure that he is able to recover the cost of
his capital investment and O&M expenditures over time.
12

Rooftop Rental
 RESCO will enter into lease agreement with the rooftop owner
and set up the solar system on his roof.
 The rooftop owner will get an agreed amount of rent from the
RESCO.
 The power generated can be either transmitted into Grid or
may be provided to private procurer on agreed tariff.

&
Project Mode
17

Program Mode
 Under this mode, Master Line of Credit/loan facility will be
sanctioned to the Borrower to execute multiple rooftop solar
projects.
 Master Line of Credit is proposed since normally rooftop solar
projects would be of small size and it would be difficult for the
Borrower to approach for approval of all projects at one go.
 The facility can be sanctioned to the Borrower based on
following indicative parameters:
 Past financials of the Borrower
 Experience in rooftop Solar PV projects
 Number of projects executed in the past
 Projected pipeline of the rooftop solar PV projects 18

• A Master Loan Agreement (MLA) will be signed between the
Bank and the Borrower.
• MLA will have all legal terms and condition applicable for both
Master facility (for Line of Credit) and individual facilities (for
individual projects)
• Subsequently, individual loan agreements will also be signed for
individual loans (containing details about the project, tenor,
interest rate and condition precedents e.g. legal opinion on lease
agreement & PPA and all regulatory and environment approval).
• Individual loan agreements will refer to the Master Loan
Agreement and will not repeat all the legal clauses.
19

 Off-taker credentials should normally be assessed at the time
of sanctioning master loan facility. However, if the details of
future off-takers are not known at the time of sanctioning
master loan facility, than the off-taker credit risk shall be
analyzed at the time of appraisal of individual projects.
 In case of any deviation from sanctioned terms and conditions
of Master loan facility, the same would need to be approved by
the Sanctioning Authority that has sanctioned the master loan
facility.
20

Project Mode
 Borrower will develop a single project and avail funds for this
project only.
 The facility would be sanctioned by sanctioning authority and
a single loan agreement with all applicable terms and
conditions would be executed.
 Proposal will include projects from single roof owners only.
However, if the roof owner owns multiple roofs at the
same/multiple locations and want to install rooftop solar
project on all the roofs at a single time or in phases, then the
proposal shall fall under project mode.
21

Eligible Projects
 Program fund will be available for Grid Connected Rooftop
Solar PV projects of commercial, industrial, and institutional
buildings-both public and private or any other structure in all
parts of India (excluding subsidy linked projects)
 Eligibility of the projects are as under:
 For Program Mode:
 Proposal include aggregate multiple projects.
 Minimum aggregate projects capacity to be submitted shall
be at 1 MWp.
 Minimum capacity of sub projects under this mode shall be
20 kWp.
22

 For Project Mode
 Proposal include single project.
 Minimum project capacity to be submitted shall be 100
kWp
 In case of CAPEX model systems lower than 100 kWp
may be considered.
