There is undue delay on the part of the Kerala State Electricity Board in connecting roof-top interactive solar power plants (Grid Tie) to its grid, Fr. Abraham Mulamoottil, chairman of Peace People Planet (PPP), has alleged.
The PPP is a non-governmental organisation based in Thiruvalla campaigning for the cause of green energy.
Fr. Mulamoottil told The Hindu that no single Grid Tie system had been connected to the KSEB grid so far in the State, while it took hardly two weeks for completing the formalities in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. “KSEB experts wanted certain tests to be conducted to ascertain whether the Grid Tie inverters got the quality to connect to the grid. But, it is equally important that the engineers should also have the correct jigs for testing,” he said.
