Our government has confirmed the discovery of lithium reserves estimated at roughly 1600 tons in Mandya District of Karnataka. Although small in global comparison, this find holds importance from the perspective of its enablement of local battery production. Currently India imports entire requirement of lithium which is a key input for the power-storage units that […]
The recent SECI bid of Rs. 2/kWh, has posed a challange to the solar developers whether the existing solar contracts shall remain intact?. Typically the solar PPAs are signed for 25 years and tariff is based on a reverse bidding process. Thee developers bid the tariff based on its capital cost, interest rate, CUF, and […]
I totally agree that auctions carried by SECI for development of MEGA Scale Solar + Wind and hybrid plants in recent times though yielded extremely low tariff and large financial rewards, but the policymakers are forgetting that it is leading to a huge impact on following Wild life Environment Transmission constraints Land issues Huge transmission losses […]
There has been significant interest of C&I businesses to opt for a rooftop solar PPA with the RESCO companies offering them various PPA terms. Though solar power has already attained grid parity, it is important to the business owners to clear understand the termsheet of a solar PPA. There are over 20 critical sections of […]
In the recent bid of SECI 1070 MW, Saudi firm Aljoemaih energy and Warter Company and Green Infra Wind energy Ltd have been the winners with the historic low tariff of Rs. 2/kWh followed by NTPC bagging 600 MW capacity @ Rs. 2.01/kWh. These projects are to be implemented in the state of Rajasthan which […]
The falling prices in the solar as well as energy storage has brough the debate to a point where we need to evaluate whether we have reached to grid parity in case of solar_+ emnergy storage.
Solar PV Roof Mounting Structure Aluminum frames will be avoided for installations in coastal Solar Panels Plants installed in high dust geographies like Rajasthan and Gujrat must have the solar panels tested with relevant dust standards (Applicable standard would be IEC 60068-2-68). Fuse: Cables: The fuse shall have DIN rail mountable […]
Quality certification and standards for grid-connected rooftop solar PV systems are essential for the successful mass-scale implementation (in-order to achieve 40 GW of rooftop solar target under ‘National Solar Mission’ programme) of this technology. It is also imperative to put in place an efficient and rigorous monitoring mechanism, adherence to these standards. In-addition, a few […]
In case of third party ownership model for solar + energy storage systems, the solar + energy storage system is owned, operated, and maintained by a third-party, which provides specific solar + energy storage services according to a contractual arrangement/PPA. This process is very similar to power purchase agreements signed with independent power producers. Third-Party […]
Key Factors Affecting the Viability of Battery Energy Storage System Projects Factor Impact on Project Viability Cost of storage Battery costs, while falling, are still the most significant driver of project viability. Costs depend on the MW/MWh ratio of the battery. The terminal value at the end of the project’s economic life also has a […]
