SECI to set up energy storage systems; invites R&D proposals

Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has invited research and development (R&D) proposals to set up pilot energy storage systems (ESS) and other renewable energy projects and products.

The tender encourages indigenous innovations in the ESS space, rooftop solar, data analytics, and new renewable energy concepts. It intends to facilitate developing and commissioning these technologies to lay the groundwork for future large-scale implementation.

The scope of work includes design, engineering, installation, commissioning, and testing of the project until the interconnection point at the 11/33 kV substation. The project should be set up at the site identified by SECI, and connectivity will be the responsibility of SECI. The project proposal should include the tentative project layout and single-line diagrams for connectivity to the grid.

SECI has invited bids to demonstrate scalability in gravity-based or mechanical ESS, green hydrogen-based ESS, any other non-electrochemical ESS technology, rooftop systems with or without storage, data analytics of renewable energy projects, and any new renewable energy technologies development and demonstration.

The project capacities should be up to 500 kWh of energy storage capacity, along with a suitable solar power generation system. The last date to submit the proposals is October 14, 2022.
