Solar operations and maintenance (O&M) is becoming an increasingly crucial part of the solar power market value chain in India and globally. Traditionally, a significant portion of solar O&M was performed manually. However, with the […]
Solar modules require frequent cleaning to remove dust and other impurities from the panel. Commonly, in India and in many other parts of the world, solar panels are cleaned manually with water using basic tools […]
Adequate transmission systems are critical to India’s renewable energy plans. Without proper transmission systems in place, no renewable energy can be transported from generation points to demand centers. Transmission lines, particularly, are vital to ensure […]
The demand for substations is growing rapidly in the country, driven by the expansion of the transmission and distribution (T&D) network and the growing integration of renewable energy. Various government schemes have been formulated to […]
Transmission systems are critical for India’s renewable energy plans. Without proper transmission systems in place, renewable energy cannot be transported from generation points to demand centres. Transmission lines are critical for ensuring renewable energy integration […]
Transformers are crucial and costly elements of the transmission system and play a vital role in maintaining consistent electricity flow over extended distances. The demand for transformers is on the rise, primarily due to the […]
Smart electric vehicle (EV) charging, which adapts the charging cycle of EVs to both power system conditions and the needs of vehicle users, has the potential to flatten peak demand, fill load valleys and support […]
By Sarthak Takyar In 2012, Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (Powergrid) conducted a study in which it found that power evacuation and transmission infrastructure near potential renewable energy project sites was insufficient. To solve […]
The global adoption of floating solar systems has gained significant traction, particularly in regions such as Europe, Japan and China. Floating solar was first introduced between 2006 and 2007, experiencing a significant surge from 2012 […]
By Amrut Joshi, Founder; Saket Rachakonda, Senior Associate; and Dia Shetty, Associate, GameChanger Law Advisors Battery packs that power EVs pose a critical challenge to stakeholders in the Indian EV industry. In recent years, we […]
The global electric vehicle (EV) charging market is poised for significant growth and is expected to reach $30.4 billion by 2023 and $35 billion by 2026. The future of EV charging infrastructure holds immense potential, […]
Solar PV panels are a sustainable and reliable source of energy, designed to operate for 25-30 years. However, to ensure optimal power generation and efficiency, regular cleaning and maintenance of these panels are essential. Accumulated […]
It is well known that atmospheric dust and soiling can reduce the performance of solar modules. The lack of module cleaning could lead to power output losses of 12-24 per cent per month. Furthermore, if […]
The environmental impact of traditional cleaning methods has come under scrutiny in recent years, particularly in a populous and diverse country like India. Water scarcity is a significant concern in many regions of the country, […]
India, with its abundant solar energy resources, has become a hotbed for solar energy adoption. The nation’s commitment to clean and renewable energy is exemplified by the significant role played by engineering, procurement and construction […]
In a bid to reduce electricity bills and meet climate commitments, commercial and industrial customers have increasingly been implementing rooftop solar projects. Many of these customers are setting up small-scale hybrid rooftop solar projects under […]
By Simarpreet Singh, Founder and CEO, Hartek Solar Private Limited With discussions about sustainable development becoming mainstream in India, the importance of adapting renewable energy has taken on vital relevance, and solar power has a […]
