Solargis has provided its high-resolution, granular resource and meteorological data to SunSource Energy.
Through their partnership, Solargis looks to improve data accuracy by providing high-quality one and five-minute granular resource data to SunSource Energy who expect to reach 1 GW in solar installations in the next few years, while increasing deployment of new technologies such as solar plus storage and bifacial.
As India begins the significant task of decarbonizing its power sector and industrial base, 80% of Indian energy production is derived from coal, oil, and biomass.
With fossil fuel prices at record highs, driving down renewable energy costs is key to India’s growth concurrent with decarbonization.
Affordable, technologically advanced and reliable solar projects are set to play a crucial role, with the National Institute of Solar Energy estimating over 750GW of potential solar capacity across the nation, derived from land availability and solar resource calculations.
Giridaran Srinivasan, CEO – Americas, Solargis, says: “The Indian solar market works at volume. With a skilled labor force and increasing demand, it is about to enter an exciting new phase of growth. We are proud to work hand in hand with SunSource Energy to support its roll out of high-quality solar resource data, ensuring that it continues to develop projects its customers can trust while helping to spearhead the effective deployment of new technology across the market.”
Of the partnership, Adarsh Das, Co-Founder and CEO, SunSource Energy notes that “Utilising data sets from Solargis has helped us improve our generation forecasting and project monitoring. Solargis has a genuine interest in maintaining the most accurate solar resource data sets, which filters through into the close support it provides us.”
