Tata Power Company Ltd is set to enhance Mumbai's energy infrastructure with the installation of a 100 MW Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). This ambitious project aims to optimize power distribution and support microgrid use cases, contributing significantly to Mumbai's renewable energy goals.
Key Highlights:
Capacity and Functionality: The BESS will have a cumulative capacity of 100 MW with 200 MWh energy storage, capable of providing 100 MWh for two hours. This will help stabilize the grid and ensure reliable power supply during peak hours.
-
Technical Specifications: The system will be interconnected to the grid at 33 kV, 22 kV, or 11 kV points, with individual installations of 10 MW/20 MWh capacity. The estimated delivery is 9 MW/18 MWh.
-
Tender Details: The project involves an Outline Agreement (OLA) for two years, with a tender fee of Rs. 2,000 and an earnest money deposit of Rs. 50 lakh. The tender is open for interested bidders through an e-tender bidding process.
-
Environmental Impact: By integrating renewable energy sources with advanced storage solutions, Tata Power is contributing to reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable energy practices in Mumbai.
This initiative aligns with India's broader strategy to increase renewable energy adoption and reduce reliance on fossil fuels, positioning Tata Power as a leader in the country's green energy transition.
