The combined changes in the mix of generation resources and patterns of electricity demand present new challenges and opportunities in operating and maintaining a reliable power
As India accelerates its transition to renewable energy, the inherent variability of sources such as solar and wind power poses challenges for grid stability. Energy storage systems (ESSs), particularly PSPs, play a crucial role in mitigating these challenges by storing excess energy during periods of low demand and releasing it during peak times.
As per the National Electricity Plan 2023, India will require 74 GW/411 GWh of energy storage systems by 2031-32, including 27 GW/175 GWh from PSP and 47 GW/236 GWh from Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
NTPC is among the government-owned entities that have been holding tenders in India for battery storage, either standalone or in hybrid pairing with generation facilities, along with others, such as the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI).
The National Electricity Plan 2023 projects a substantial increase in energy storage requirements, estimating approximately 74 GW/411 GWh of ESS by 2031-32, with PSPs contributing 27 GW/175 GWh. This projection underscores the critical role of PSPs in India’s energy strategy, complementing other storage solutions such as BESSs. Guidelines for PSPs
These guidelines aim to promote competition, transparency, and standardized procurement to reduce power procurement costs, facilitate renewable capacity addition, and fulfill renewable purchase and storage power obligations.
