Innovation in the energy sector is essential for achieving energy security goals in India. Among the ongoing innovations, large pumped hydroelectric storage plants are identified as promising technologies, especially with the development of new efficient hydro turbines and control systems. At the same time, solutions like nuclear-based power generation using small modular reactors (SMR) have been studied. This technology is fast reaching commercialisation. Let us know more from Shirish Garud.
How can advanced storage technologies enhance India's renewable energy grid stability?
India currently has a gridconnected RE capacity of 201.46 GW, which has reached 44.5 percent of the total installed capacity of 452.69 GW. The share of dispatchable RE (large hydro) is about 10.37 percent (46.92 GW); the balance of 34.14 percent is mostly intermittent RE (solar and wind), with a small share of bioenergy and RE with integrated storage plants.

HIKMICRO AI Acoustic Imager enhances industrial efficiency by detecting air leaks
Industry studies suggest that leaks in compressed air systems can account for up to 30 percent of energy waste. Compressed air leaks are often harder to detect than other types of gas leaks because they do not produce noticeable smells or colours.
Driving innovation and expanding capacity to accelerate India's 2030 renewable energy goal
The company has outlined a strategy to expand its manufacturing capabilities in a phased approach to boost solar panel production to 13 GW. This includes preparation to launch a 4 GW TOPCon cell manufacturing plant by FY 2026-27.
By 2040, 49% of electricity will come from RE
According to the REN21 Renewables 2020 Global Status Report, investments in renewable energy projects and programmes totalled US$64.4 billion between 2014 and 2019.
