Battery energy storage technologies globally are transforming how companies utilize, control, and dispatch electricity and facilitating a smoother transition to clean energy. The Indian market is also realizing how battery storage can enhance the performance of solar systems.

Battery storage systems help save solar energy for later use, ensuring less energy is imported from the grid. In the case of power cuts, storage systems provide vital power backup. They can be used strategically to store power during off-peak hours and use it during peak hours, thereby reducing power bills.

Mercom will host a webinar titled ‘Battery Storage With Rooftop Solar Systems: An Untapped Market in India’ on November 15, 2022.

The webinar will bring together experts to provide insights into the versatility of a storage-integrated solar solution and ways to enhance profitability with increased energy savings for consumers.

The panelists are Shantanu Sirsath, Technical Head India, Growatt New Energy; NP Ramesh, Chief Operating Officer, Orb Energy; and Ankur Gupta, VP-New Products & Technology, Amplus Solar. Priya Sanjay, Managing Director, Mercom India, will moderate the session.

Storage-integrated solar solutions can provide reliable supply, which is vital for manufacturing facilities to maximize production. It can also help consumers shift towards renewable energy resources and reduce carbon emissions while ensuring production processes are not disrupted.

Energy storage can save operational costs in powering the grid and money for consumers who install energy storage in their homes and businesses. Energy storage can offset the costs to consumers by storing low-cost energy for use during peak periods.

There is an incentive for both businesses and domestic consumers to pair storage solutions with solar.

Despite the vast untapped market for storage-integrated solar solutions in India’s residential, commercial, and industrial segments, only a few government organizations have initiated the transition to battery-backed rooftop solar. Given the upfront costs of these solutions, commercial adoption is still slow. Still, given the benefit of disruption-free operations, it is only a matter of time before businesses start embracing solar plus storage solutions.
