CERC Regulates Energy Storage
The Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) has issued a notification bringing integrated energy storage systems under the tariff framework. This move is expected to provide clarity on the pricing of energy storage systems and encourage their adoption in the Indian power sector. The notification outlines the guidelines for the determination of tariff for energy storage systems, including the calculation of fixed and variable charges.
Who this affects
This development changes the tariff framework for energy storage systems in India, which could lead to increased adoption of energy storage technologies by power generators and distributors, ultimately benefiting households and industries by providing more reliable and efficient power supply.
