The High Court of Karnataka has said that it is high time the State government and the Karnataka Renewable Energy Development Ltd. (KREDL) pondered over and took appropriate measures to see that huge projects in the renewable energy sector were not imperilled by avoidable litigation in larger public interest.
Justice Krishna S. Dixit made this suggestion while disposing a litigation among three private companies over the allotment of an area of land to set up their respective wind energy projects.
The court said its suggestion had to be read in the light of “renewable energy infrastructure at present and the daunting climate change and energy crises faced by the world”.
