NEW DELHI: Power discom Tata Power Delhi Distribution (Tata Power-DDL) has won a prestigious award for India\u2019s first \u2018mega inverter\u2019, a grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at northwest Delhi\u2019s Rohini.
\nTata Power-DDL has been recognised in the category of \u2018Top 25 Innovative Company\u2019 by CII Industrial Innovation Awards 2020 for the development of South Asia\u2019s largest grid-scale BESS, in collaboration with AES and Mitsubishi. TOI was the first to report about the one of its kind \u2018mega inverter\u2019.
\n\u201cBESS is India\u2019s first grid-scale battery-based energy storage system and is playing an instrumental role in modernising the city\u2019s power system and improving grid efficiency. In simpler terms, the 10 MWh battery storage set up in Rohini is like inverters in houses, only a massive one, interconnected to a network of 200 MW capacity,\u201d a spokesperson of the discom said. The storage system can feed around 2,500 \u2018special customers\u2019 who provide essential services like hospitals, Delhi Jal Board, Delhi Metro, government offices, schools etc. \u201cThe stored power can also be used during any breakdown or situations like grid failure,\u201d he said.
\n\u201cOur path-breaking innovation like BESS can manage peak power demand load during summer,\u201d Ganesh Srinivasan, CEO of Tata Power-DDL, said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
