RUVNL Proposes 1000 MW Pump Storage Solution to Tackle Energy Challenges
RUVNL's unique approach of tying up RE and energy storage capacities separately addresses the limitations of structured RE power projects with mandatory ESS.
December 16, 2023. By Abha Rustagi
In a move to tackle the rising energy demands and intermittency challenges in the state, Rajasthan Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (RUVNL) has filed a petition seeking approval for a 1000 MW/6000 MWh Inter-State Transmission System (ISTS) connected energy storage solution.
The initiative aims to address the deficit in energy during peak hours and enhance flexibility in scheduling, aligning with the state's commitment to tariff-based competitive bidding processes for renewable energy (RE).
The petition focuses on securing a substantial daily pump storage-based energy storage solution on a long-term basis, connected to the Central Transmission Utility (CTU). This approach separates RE and energy storage capacities, allowing for specialized participation and flexibility in managing peak demand and seasonal variations.
RUVNL's unique approach of tying up RE and energy storage capacities separately addresses the limitations of structured RE power projects with mandatory Energy Storage Systems (ESS). This approach enables real-time charging options and offers the flexibility to manage peak demand with a combination of RE and non-RE power sources.
To further streamline the process, RUVNL has formulated a comprehensive bidding document adhering to the principles of the Electricity Act 2003. This document aims to ensure maximum participation and procurement at the least tariff, addressing the peak-hour demand deficit in the interest of consumers in the state.
Stakeholders and the public have until December 18 to submit their comments on the proposal.
