  • The government has Mandated all future solar project tenders to include energy storage systems.
  • All renewable energy implementing agencies (REIAs) and state discoms are now advised to incorporate a minimum of two-hour co-located energy storage systems (ESS), equivalent to 10 per cent of the installed solar project capacity, in future solar tenders.
  • It will mitigate intermittency issues and provide critical support during the peak demand periods.
  • This will help enhance the capacity utilization of renewable energy assets as India scales up to 500 GW of non-fossil capacity by 2030.
