Hybrid and RTC projects to boost India’s RE and energy storage market
The global hybrid energy market, including energy storage, is projected to touch $40 billion by 2025. It is an opportunity that India has capitalized upon, earlier than others.
Energy and Economy: Rewriting the Indian story for the World
India is running the world’s largest renewable energy expansion program with a mind-boggling target of 450 GW by 2030. Can the country with a growing energy demand do more than this? Can it do what developed countries should have done years ago?
Bringing back India’s solar sector to the front foot in 2021
The ‘175 GW by 2022’ renewable energy target seems unachievable, necessitating the benchmark be moved to ‘450 GW by 2030’ instead. But even that will require the sector to move back to the front foot from 2021.
The EV story in post-Covid India
The near-term outlook for electric vehicles (EVs) remains bleak owing to supply and demand headwinds coupled with the expectation of sluggish investment to scale up the support ecosystem.
Decelerating PV module prices may start increasing in fourth quarter
Market dynamics may again alter the global supply-demand picture for solar modules, leading to an increase in prices or price stabilization.
Three signs that battery energy storage is mainstream today
With the inclusion of battery energy storage into new building codes and safety standards, it’s obvious just how mainstream storage is today.
Water scarcity and the growing need for smarter solutions in solar projects
The inefficiency and irregularity of cleaning the solar panels manually, and the associated use of water defeat the purpose of shifting to renewable energies.
Problems observed in solar module mounting structures in India
Findings from solar installation sites in Gujarat and Rajasthan and some suggestions to handle the issues.
Renewable power poised for a big leap with storage technologies
While the solar and storage pairing is still relatively new, the growth over the next five years will be significant globally. As against just 5% in 2019, by 2025 more than 25% of all behind-the-meter solar systems will be paired with storage.
Mega-scale solar farms Vs distributed generation with battery storage
Distributed generation with battery storage can revolutionize solar development in India in the shortest time period with minimal investment.
