Community-scale batteries, ranging from 100 to 5000 kW, store surplus solar power for later use, helping stabilize the grid and reduce costs. Their role in microgrids supports renewable energy expansion, especially in remote areas.

Madhya Pradesh has launched the first phase of a 278 MW floating solar plant at Omkareshwar, marking a step toward generating 1400 MW from floating solar. The state is also exploring solar panels on canals, inspired by Gujarat’s success

Only 30 countries have energy storage targets, totaling 284 GW by 2030. This leaves a 1,216 GW gap from the 1,500 GW global goal needed to stabilize grids and support renewable energy growth.

India's MNRE has called for proposals to establish Centres of Excellence for Green Hydrogen R&D. Part of the Green Hydrogen Mission, these hubs will drive innovation, skill development, and collaboration in clean energy, with Rs 100 crore allocated.

Gensol Engineering Limited has won a Rs 780 crore contract for a 150 MW solar photovoltaic power plant in Maharashtra. The project will be completed in 15 months and includes comprehensive management from design to operations and maintenance

Ather Energy faces unequal government support compared to Ola Electric, despite being a key player in India's EV market. CEO Tarun Mehta cites a flawed PLI scheme that favors large automakers, hindering Ather’s growth and access to subsidies.

Electric Vehicles (EVs) in India range from fully electric BEVs to hybrids (HEVs, PHEVs) and hydrogen-powered FCEVs. Each offers unique benefits like zero emissions, fuel efficiency, or flexibility, addressing varied consumer preferences.

The fusion of electric transport and smart grids initiated a new chapter in energy and mobility history. Together, these technologies have the potential to significantly reduce emissions and support a safe and affordable energy future.

The Indian government has approved a Viability Gap Funding scheme to facilitate offshore wind energy projects. Despite having 54 offshore wind farm projects, none are currently operational.

India's 2047 goal: sustainable growth with clean energy, increasing renewables, bridging urban-rural energy gaps, and ensuring energy security amid rising demand.
