industry
Capex Rs. 8.8 cr/MW

Farmer Kulveer Singh of Ganganagar told TOI, "With the help of the pump, money spent on fuel consumption is saved. In
one hour, 2.5 litres of diesel is required, and in a day a generator is run for at least 8 hours. The solar pump is very cost
effective.“
 Cost of 1 kWh of DG is Rs. 18 at Diesel cost of Rs. 50 compared to Rs.6.7 from PV pump.
 A 3 HP pump costs Rs. 4.5 Lakhs & gets a 30% capex subsidy.

One Astronomical stats: Per average farmer globally consumes 1100 units per yr, compared to 530 units in
India. If SPV were to meet that requirement alone, it’s a Rs. 64 Lakh crore market!!

Forms of energy storage Major Advantages Key disadvantages
Electrochemical battery Uses DC to store, and fits Unfit for very large size &
the different scales of PV very small sizes
Pumped storage Best fitted for GW level Very site specific
storage
Capacitors (Ultra-small) Intermittent voltage & Expensive & non-scalable
frequency regulation
Flywheels Load balancing & power Bulky & stores relatively
quality management lesser energy
Cryogenics Compact & mechanical Unproven & risk of
based-less prone to failure operating in the high
insolation solar fields

Every transformation of energy accounts for atleast 12% energy dissipation, which in
itself makes storage of electrons as electrons (closest to ions) ensures least wastage.


• Reason for battery:
– Minimal transformation of energy
– Least setup time in compliance with solar
• Metrics to measure cost economics
Levelised Annual Cost (LAC):
• Divide the required Ah by DoD, and no. of
replacements from cycles per day and system life.
Calculate the additional capex, and add to capex in
LCOE model.
• Multiply the yield by DC-DC turnaround efficiency to
get the effective yield to be used in the LCOE model

up also, might set-up a shop

Economics Suitable for MW farms & kW Only for kW but long Competes at every level
level set-ups duration storage like telecom


Reason for rejection of other players
Company Reason
Cellstrom Only storage solution & no power electronics or micro-grid solution available
Meeco Own a subsidiary called Durion which does Li-ion, but is by itself a solar EPC
and has done 200MW. Partnering with them might create additional
competition for solar EPC in India later

SAFT Too big to deliver customized solutions
NGK Na-S had a explosion in September 2011 and since have stopped selling along
with warranties
PSI Not suitable to large farms, and not a big enough player
Deeya Too early in the start-up stages
