The renewable energy, specifically solar and wind, are intermittent and infirm in nature. They are at the mercy of weather. As the frequency and severity of these weather events increase, the reliability of our energy infrastructure faces challenges.
As of January 31, 2026, India's installed solar capacity has reached approximately 140.6 GW, while wind power capacity stands at around 54.65 GW. India aims to add a solar capacity of around 280–292 GW and a wind capacity of approximately 100–107 GW by 2029-30. Thus, the challenge of stabilising the grid will be very high.
To manage these many utilities, it encourages customers to limit electricity usage during peak times. Utilities have implemented time-of-use rates, charging higher prices for electricity used during periods of high demand.
BTM energy storage systems can mitigate these issues to a large extent by providing backup power during outages and maintaining a consistent energy supply when renewable sources are temporarily unavailable.
BTM are relevant for excess generation in day from solar DRE like rooftop installations. These can store the excess generation to support supply for non solar peak hours.
In this context, All India Discoms Association (AIDA) is organising session comprising of presentations, panel discussion and release of study report. Some eminent personalities in the field of power sector will take part in the panel.
Registrations are now open.
