PXIL successfully conducted REC trading for the month of December 2015. The total cleared volume on the exchange was 94,366 RECs that led to PXIL having a Market Share of 9.83%. In this month clearing ratio was 1.93 % due to low demand side participation. During this trading session, the prices in the solar and non-solar categorieshave remained at the floor level.

Prior to today’s auction more than 1.76 Crore RECs were available in the market for trade;however the traded volume is low on account of non-fulfillment of RPO compliance by major utilities. The traded volumes are expected to increase in the coming months as many obligated entities would start purchasing REC’s to meet their RPO targets.
