Growth Challenges = Opportunity

In the current scenario, Asian players are likely to dominate battery manufacturing. A big opportunity for India to increase focus on domestic and ex-China supply chain to build its Energy Future

Benefits of Solar + Storage

  • What do Renewable adoption communities need, that Solar + battery storage might provide?

  • Flattening load curve to reduce wholesale procurement costs?

  • Flexible or peaking capacity to reduce exposure to spot market prices? 

  • Resource adequacy?

  •  Resiliency?

  • How might customer-based storage meet those needs?

  • How can electricity provider and Government take advantage of solar + storage economics for customers?

Solar and Batteries a Perfect Marriage in Emerging Markets

  • While solar can significantly reduce the biggest part of an energy bill (usage), solar energy by itself doesn’t reliably reduce demand charges.

  • Working together, solar and battery storage offset both usage and demand charges, a “perfect marriage”
    Demand Reduction – Automated control system discharges battery during periods of high demand to avoid demand charges.

  • Advanced algorithms “learn” operating profile and respond (charge/discharge) instantaneously.

  • “Smooth out” solar production profile – to avoid gaps from weather variations, and other potential outages
Benefit to Government

State and International Mandates Requirements; for example: COP26
Faster transition to a cleaner future.
Load Shaping: one of the factors impacting Utility cost of wholesale procurement is load shape; i.e., the “peakier” the load the more it costs to serve that load
Load Shifting: as overall peak demand has shifted to the evening, it becomes increasingly important for CCAs to find ways to reduce demand during that period
The performance and cost effectiveness of grid management improves when a load serving entity can structurally reduce peak electricity load and shave or shift the peak customer demand for electricity.
Resource Adequacy
