India's Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has released a report which covers both renewable energy policy initiatives in the nation and technical requirements for integrating more renewables into India's generation mix.
"Green Energy Corridors" poses these goals within the government's efforts to reach 85 GW of electricity generation during the 12th five-year plan, which lasts until 2017. MNRE notes that renewable energy has the advantage of greater resource flexibility through the deployment of distributed generation.

First report of its kind in India
MNRE states that this report is the first of its kind in the nation, and hopes that it will provide an impetus to large-scale integration of renewable energy.
The report includes studies on transmission infrastructure requirements and related services for the integration of large-scale renewable energy capacities, as well as intra-interstate transmission system strengthening, flexible generation, and forecasting to address intermittency and variability aspects.
The report was released jointly by Indian Minister of New and Renewable Energy Dr. Farooq Abdullah and Dr. Veerappa Moily.
