Description
Description | India plans to expand its renewable energy capacity by focusing on floating solar projects integrated with battery energy storage systems (BESS). The scheme approved by the expenditure finance committee under the finance ministry involves a ₹5,500 crore investment to reduce land demand for renewable energy projects. Floating solar involves installing solar panels on water bodies, enhancing efficiency and reducing evaporation. Several large-scale floating solar projects have been commissioned, including Tata Power's 126 MW Omkareshwar project and the 100 MW Ramagundam FPV project. The government is also drafting a floating solar policy to support developers and investors. |
