In order to complement generation from various renewable energy (RE) sources, the state-run Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has requested R&D ideas for the establishment of pilot Energy Storage Systems (ESS).
For technologies like gravity-based/mechanical ESS, green hydrogen based ESS, and any other non-electrochemical ESS technologies, it has solicited R&D ideas.
“SECI intends to invite proposals from prospective applicants involved in the field of R&D of ESS technologies to set up novel ESS projects in order to supplement generation from different renewable sources like wind, solar and hybrid (wind and solar),” the proposal said.
The government-run agency is also looking for innovations in Do It Yourself (DIY) rooftop products with storage and any new RE generation technologies.
