Kavaratti Unveils Solar Plant with Battery Storage
Kavaratti, the capital of Lakshadweep, proudly introduces its first on-grid solar power plant featuring an advanced battery energy storage system. This innovative project is projected to deliver substantial savings, estimated at Rs 2.50 billion. The solar facility, seamlessly integrated with a state-of-the-art 1.4 MWh battery storage system, represents a significant stride towards sustainable and cost-effective energy solutions.
The on-grid solar power plant is strategically designed to harness solar energy efficiently, bolstered by a cutting-edge battery storage system that enhances the reliability and stability of the power supply. This initiative aligns with Kavaratti's commitment to embracing renewable energy sources, reducing dependency on conventional power, and contributing to a greener and more sustainable energy landscape.
The integration of battery storage is a key highlight, ensuring that excess energy generated during peak sunlight hours can be stored and utilised during periods of lower solar output or high electricity demand. This not only optimises energy utilisation but also enhances the resilience of the power grid in Kavaratti.
The debut of Kavaratti's on-grid solar power plant with advanced battery storage underscores the island's dedication to embracing innovative and eco-friendly energy solutions. This project not only positions Kavaratti as a leader in sustainable energy adoption but also serves as a testament to the economic viability and long-term benefits of investing in renewable energy infrastructure.
