Roadmap is presented below:As an outcome of this detailed study we have prepared an Energy Storage System (ESS) Roadmap for India for the period 2019-2032 that will help policy makers and utilities in decision making related to investments in energy storage for integration of renewable energy leading to a reliable
India's electric power system is evolving. The combined changes in the mix of generation resources and patterns of electricity demand present new challenges and opportunities in operating and maintaining a reliable power system. Energy storage has the potential to meet these challenges.
India's energy storage framework incorporates several key policies to drive early adoption and growth. The Ministry of Power's Energy Storage Obligations (ESO) require utilities to progressively increase storage to 4% of electricity demand by 2030 (equivalent to 200– 250 GWh), a critical step for grid stability as renewable capacity expands.
