Moody’s Upgrade Could Give Green Projects in India a Boost
November 22, 2017

ReNew Power CEO Sumant Sinha said that Moody’s rating upgrade will be especially beneficial for the renewable energy sector which has limited lending options with the domestic banks. However, the government needs to remove the red tape first, especially concerning the renegotiation of the power purchase agreements (PPAs).
