New Delhi: Union minister for power and new & renewable energy R. K. Singh, said that the cost of energy storage has been discovered at Rs 10.18 per kilowatt hour in a recent tariff-based competitive bid conducted by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) for a 500 MW / 1000 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).
The Delhi government is building India’s first large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) at the BSES power grid in Kilokri, South Delhi. This system will store electricity in batteries and supply power during peak hours or emergencies. With a 20 MW/40 MWh capacity, it will provide four hours of daily power to about one lakh residents.
Situated in South Delhi’s Kilokri, the battery system will operate with a capacity of 20 MW/40 MWh. The minister visited the site on Wednesday, and “This is like a huge inverter. It stores electricity and can be used during emergencies or power cuts”.
Delhi's first standalone battery energy storage system will enhance power supply for 100,000 consumers, ensuring reliability during peak demand and outages.
