Role of Energy Storage in 21st Century Grid
Renewables in India:
Solar and Wind
• Currently installed total solar PV generation capacity is
5 GW
• Most regions of India have an abundance of source of
solar energy
• Target for 2022 is 100 GW which implies almost 30X of
the currently installed capacity

Capacity
Wind Generation
Capacity
• Currently installed total wind generation capacity is
~27GW
• Western and southern regions of India include 90%
installed capacity
• Target for 2022 is 60 GW which implies almost tripling
of the currently installed capacity
Renewable integration:
Opportunity for smoothing and shifting
Forecasting Errors
Electric Vehicles
• Government of India had launched the National
Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020 in 2013, to
achieve national fuel security by promoting electric
and hybrid electric vehicles.
• In 2015, the Indian government launched Faster
Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicle
(FAME) scheme under which the government has
set aside $12 million subsidy to provide discounts
on purchase of electric vehicles in 2015-16.
• Electric 2/3 wheeler and
fleet vehicle market is
expected to grow at a
tremendous rate
• Requirements for charging
infrastructure, smart
meters and testing are
likely to gain importance

Due to the government motivation
and incentives the Indian EV
marked is poised for immense
growth over the next 5 years.
Technological innovations in EV
technology and charging
infrastructure will have immense
growth potential.
Need for Ancillary Services for
21st century Power Quality
• Consumers have no ability to resolve the grid frequency on their own. In a
synchronized grid this has to be managed by grid operators.
• India can address a significant part of the frequency issues by allocation of 1.44.6 GW of flexible resources hydro, gas based generation and EES.
IESA is leading
efforts for promotion
of the ancillary
services market by
actively engaging
policy makers, central
electricity authority
and other key
stakeholders. Last
year IESA released a
report outlining the
roadmap for adoption
of EES for grid
frequency regulation.

Global Manufacturing Scale &
Make in India
• LEAD ACID battery leads the energy storage market in production
and sales
• LITHIUM ION batteries are currently being manufactured in the
GW scale (portable, transportation and grid storage)
• FLOW BATTERIES are currently being manufactured on a MW
scale. Production may scale up significantly in the next 5 years
• THERMAL STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES are seeing fastest growth
due to applications such as air conditioning and cold storage
India has the potential to become global hub for advanced energy storage manufacturing in coming decade
through innovation & technology partnerships

Storage Cost vs. Cycle Life Comparison
Lead Acid batteries are work horse for the
industrial and residential backup and provide
lower capital cost solutions , while Li-Ion &
Flow batteries are emerging as solutions for
applications requiring higher cycle life.
ENERGY STORAGE performance metrics:
• Capital cost ($/kWh)
• Cycle life
• Roundtrip Energy Efficiency
• Space footprint
• C-rate (duration)
• Usable SOC range

IESA analysis predicts that levalized cost of storage can drop
from ~Rs 15/kWh to under 5 Rs/kWh with in next 3 years
