2026 microgrid rules: opportunity requires the correct service model
ERC Resolution No. 11, Series of 2026 builds on the Microgrid Systems Act for unserved and underserved areas; it is not a shortcut for every private off-grid installation.
01
What the evidence says
The Act addresses integrated electricity service in qualified unserved or underserved areas.
Private facility microgrids may follow a different regulatory path.
02
What a business should do next
Classify the project before using “microgrid” as a legal label.
Separate facility resilience from licensed electricity service.
Policies, standards and product applicability can change. Confirm the current text, project classification and competent authority before procurement, import or investment.
