BusinessPhoto: MintIndia Urges ALMM Expansion to Boost Domestic Renewable Manufacturing
India's renewable energy sector has requested the government to expand the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) framework beyond solar modules and wind turbines to include battery energy storage systems and other key components. This move aims to reduce reliance on imports, especially from China, amid concerns over export restrictions on solar manufacturing equipment. The call was made by Santosh Kumar Sarangi, MNRE secretary, during the Bharat Renewable Energy Summit 2026.
