draft policy dreams big on solar power | thiruvananthapuram news - times of india - ess energy storage system

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: If the plan envisaged in the draft power policy becomes a reality, quality power will be available to consumers anytime, anywhere in the next five or six years.
The draft power policy released by the state government is expected to have more consumers.
Friendly initiatives, realistic summaries and future steps, as well as disruptive technologies that impact the global electricity market at new speeds and energy.
One of the main objectives of the draft policy discussion is the possibility of establishing a "grid"
This will help the country to store solar energy for easy use.
The goal is to build a grid-
First-Class energy storage network facilities.
Leveraging new storage technologies to hit the electricity market, it should be possible to deploy reliable mechanisms in the near future. Cost-
In the next few years, there will be efficient lithium batteries with excellent storage efficiency.
Such scenarios will help build smallto-
Bulk solar storage facilities for consumer homes and states-
Running the equipment, EM Dhareshan unnithanâ the director of the National Energy Management Center said.
At present, the main problem of solar energy is the high storage cost.
With the emergence of more efficient batteries invented by the mechanism (including VSSC)
Decision makers expect a significant drop in storage costs.
In this case, we will be able to generate and store reliable quality power at speeds below Rs 3/unit.
These lithium batteries are largely for maintenance.
The life cycle, he says, is 15 years and is free.
The draft policy also disclosed the government's plans to facilitate the deployment of additional pumped storage facilities to existing hydel reservoirs.
By this we mean that 80% of the water coming out of the power station will be pumped back to the reservoir.
This can be done during the day when there is less power demand and higher demand for solar power generation.
If we can build a pumped storage facility, it can use solar power.
Sources in the industry say the situation will ensure better management of electricity, especially during peak hours.
