The deployment of wind-solar hybrid projects could play a key role in India meeting its renewable energy targets while also reducing intermittency problems, a new report says.
State-owned companies in India could be tasked with establishing polysilicon manufacturing facilities to help make domestic solar manufacturing more competitive, reports have claimed.
Eden Renewables India, the EDF and Total-owned joint venture, has cemented its status in India’s solar market by picking up awards for 1.35GW of new-build solar PV.
Indian state-owned power company Damodar Valley Corporation (DVC) will focus solely on solar projects to add additional capacity, as it looks to develop an extensive floating PV portfolio.
Global governments could divert massive amounts of public funds from cancelled, large-scale power generation projects, such as nuclear, towards solar and other renewables to deliver consumers more value for money.
The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has invited bids for a 100MWac/200MWp solar project with a 50MW/150MWh battery energy storage system in the state of Chhattisgarh.
Solarpack increased its H1 operating revenues nearly three-fold (191%) year-on-year to €78.84 million (US$93.64 million), thanks in part to the commissioning of PV projects in Spain, Chile and India.
NTPC, India’s largest power company, is aiming to add more than 5GW of new solar capacity in the next two years as it builds its renewables presence overseas thanks to a collaboration with the International Solar Alliance (ISA).
