Frequent outages, rising power demand, low coal stocks and declining hydel generation are raising concerns over Telangana’s power supply next season. The State government has announced new generation and procurement measures, but their implementation will take considerable time.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has approved a 250 MW solar power project with battery energy storage on 850 acres of defence land in Sitapur, Uttar Pradesh. Implemented by NTPC, the project aims to boost clean energy, enhance energy security and reduce power costs
SCCL's first Battery Energy Storage System in Telangana has delivered encouraging results, helping store surplus solar power and generate savings of Rs. 25.66 lakh. The project has improved energy utilisation and may pave the way for more renewable energy initiatives.
