Resumen

This Act, consisting of 21 sections divided into ten Chapters, provides for levy of cess on generation of electricity other than renewable energy for creation of a fund for protecting environment and promoting the generation of electricity through renewable sources in the State of Gujarat. It establishes that there shall be levied and collected a cess on generation of electricity except on generation of renewable energy by the generating company at the generating station or at the captive generating plant or the stand by generating plant. Such cess under sub-section (1) shall be levied and payable on the electricity generated in the State of Gujarat irrespective of the fact whether such electricity is consumed within the State or not. The State Government may by notification in the Official Gazette, exempt from payment of the cess, the generating company having aggregate installed capacity of not more than one thousand kilowatts. There shall be established a fund called "Green Energy Fund" which shall be under the control of the State Government. The State Government shall also have the power to allocate and disburse such sums from the Fund as it considers necessary to the concerned Departments responsible for achieving the objects of this Act.
