These involve grid extension and the provision of stand-alone system generators comprising solar photovoltaic, mini-hydro and hybrid systems.---Biomass-based co-generation system for the production of electricity and usable energy will be encouraged.
RE capital subsidy, grant, or rebate: 
In promoting greater utilization of RE resources, initiatives that will be considered include [...] extension of financial and fiscal incentives for RE-related activities.
RE reductions in taxes: 
Under the Budget 2001, biomass-based generating companies that apply for incentives by 31 December 2002 will be granted exemption of income tax on 70 per cent of the statutory income for five years or a tax allowance of 60 per cent of qualifying capital expenditure incurred within five years. The allowance can be utilized to set off up to 70 per cent of the statutory income. In addition, import duty and sales tax exemption on machinery and equipment that are not produced locally will also be granted.
RE public awareness/promotional programmes: 
Promotional programmes to increase public awareness on the benefits of using NGV will be intensified.---In promoting greater utilization of RE resources, initiatives that will be considered include demonstration projects and commercialization of research findings [...]..
Environment
Energy environmental priorities:
