Tata Power Receives Approval For 100-MW Battery Energy Storage System Project
The entire 100 MW system will be installed across ten strategically located sites, especially near load centres across Mumbai distribution, centrally monitored and controlled from Tata Power's Power System Control Center.
Tata Power Company Ltd. on Monday said it has received an approval from the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission to install a 100-MegaWatt battery energy storage system project.
The project will be installed across ten strategically located sites in Mumbai over the next two years, Tata Power said in an exchange filing.
Equipped with advanced black start functionality, the Battery Energy Storage System will enable a swift recovery of power supply to critical infrastructure, including the metro, hospitals, airport, and data centres, in case of grid disturbances.
Additionally, the system will optimise reactive power management, improving peak demand efficiency and strengthening the city's power infrastructure.
The entire 100 MW system will be installed across ten strategically located sites, especially near load centres across Mumbai distribution, centrally monitored and controlled from Tata Power's Power System Control Center.
"Future plans include the integration of BESS into the Distributed Energy Resource Management System to enhance operational efficiency," Tata Power said.
Tata Power is a leading integrated power company and owns a diversified portfolio of 15.6 GW.
