Will India's power system transition be less-cost optimised?
This model helps explore least-cost optimised pathways for India’s power system transition. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) costs, excluding the cost of finance, need to fall 15% annually on an average to avoid new coal capacity additions after .
How India is promoting the adoption of energy storage systems?
begun to invest in energy storage and develop policy to support the development of battery storage. The Ministry of Power in India has taken a significant step in promoting the adoption of energy storage systems (ESS)
How will coal phase-down affect India's energy transition?
The trajectory of coal phase-down and India’s overall energy transition in the next decade or so, is critically dependent on how quickly battery storage costs fall, how fast new RE capacity gets built and how optimally existing coal capacity is utilised.
Are battery energy storage system costs going down?
Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) costs are projected to decline at a rate of 7% annually, reflecting the average decrease over the past several years. Detailed assumptions and rationale are available in the methodology section and datasheet.
Will India's power transition be a cost optimal pathway?
While recent declines in BESS costs have been significant, they need to fall by more than 50% from current levels for the least-cost pathway to favour no new coal additions, especially for meeting non-solar demand. Overall, the cost optimal pathway for India’s power transition is highly sensitive to the rate at which battery project costs decline.
How much does storage cost in India?
By , this cost had fallen to around $200/kWh (Rs 32 million/MW for 2-hour storage). Co-located storage systems, which integrate storage with generation assets, have seen an even greater reduction to about $150/kWh (Rs 25 million/MW for 2-hour storage), equating to Rs 12.5 million per MWh.
