New Delhi | 08 May 2024 — In a significant step forward for India's energy transition, the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) has granted regulatory approval of India's first commercial standalone Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project.
AmpereHour Energy, a full-stack energy storage solutions provider, in consortium with Indigrid, has commissioned BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd's (BRPL) 20 MW/40 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) project at the BSES Rajdhani Kilokari Substation in Delhi.
Marking IndiGrid's entry into commercial battery storage, this milestone project represents a pivotal moment in India's energy transition. The BESS installation is engineered to support renewable energy integration into the distribution grid, enhance grid stability, manage peak demand, and fulfill ancillary power system needs.
The said CEA Study has revealed that the planning model selects the battery energy storage system from the year 2027-28 onwards and a Battery Energy Storage capacity of 27,000 MW/108,000 MWh (4-hour storage) is projected to be part of the installed capacity in 2029-30.
Delhi marked a major leap in urban energy infrastructure with the inauguration of a 20-MW (40 MWh) Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at Kilokari, deemed the “largest” utility-scale system in South Asia. The project, inaugurated by Delhi Power Minister Ashish Sood, is hailed as India's first commercially approved utility-scale energy
Harsh Shah, CEO and Whole Time Director of IndiGrid, highlighted the critical role of battery storage in India's power future. He emphasized the importance of smart energy storage solutions for grid resilience and efficient renewable integration, stating that the project reflects IndiGrid's dedication to sustainable infrastructure.
