India's Ministry of Power (MoP) has issued a significant regulatory update requiring all new solar photovoltaic (PV) power tender projects to be equipped with at least 2 hours of co-located energy storage systems (ESS), with a capacity of 10% of the installed solar project capacity.
According to the National Energy Plan (NEP) 2023, India aims to achieve a PV installed capacity of 186 GW by 2026-2027 and to reach 365 GW by 2032. Such a vast PV generation capacity will require corresponding energy storage systems to maintain grid stability, making storage technology a crucial element in the current energy transition.
As of December 31, 2024, India's installed energy storage capacity was 4.86GW, of which 4.75GW was pumped storage power (PSP) and 0.11GW was battery energy storage systems (BESS).
The MoP anticipates that, due to this new storage clause, about 14GW/28GWh of energy storage systems will be installed in India by 2030. As the price of energy storage batteries declines, it is expected to help reduce evening power purchase costs, when solar power is unavailable and energy prices in the power trading market are higher.
Recently, India reached the milestone of 100GW of cumulative solar PV installed capacity, and according to data from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), another 84.10GW is under construction and 47.49GW is being tendered.
