A good precedent to follow would be the practice of bulk procurement used so effectively to bring down the price of LEDs and more recently electric buses by EESL along with the decision taken at the outset on the rate at which surplus electricity would be brought by the distribution company, says Mr Ajay Shankar, Distinguished Fellow, TERI.
