India’s grid capacity puzzle

AI Summary

India is expanding renewable energy capacity faster than its transmission grid can accommodate, creating constraints for new projects. Because available grid capacity varies by substation, grid access is increasingly important to project siting and economics.

India is adding renewable energy capacity faster than transmission infrastructure can keep pace, and the consequences are now showing up in project economics, writes Vijay CS of Aurora Energy Research. The situation can change greatly from one substation to the next, meaning grid capacity is now a key consideration for deciding a new project’s location.
