Grid-connected energy storage system launched

Minister of Power Satyendar Jain inaugurated India’s first grid connected community storage system located in Rani Bagh that will improve the supply reliability at the distribution level and avoid a situation of grid failure in case of any exigency. Talking about it, the Minister said the storage system is robust and will be of massive use. It is environment friendly, uses no water and produces no emissions, he said.

“This is the first grid connected community storage system. This battery system has a lifespan of 10-20 years. When there is peak load, transformers usually burn out which causes power failure. In the months of June-July, when there is a peak, the battery will aid in the power supply.
