Report Summary India having an installed capacity share of close to 60% from coal fired power plants which contribute to range hovering over 70% actual power generation levels, the cycling of these plants to meet load variability translates to an inescapable reality for the country.

With the planned ingress of large volumes of renewable energy into the grid, how will India tackle the issue of frequent backing down and ramping up of thermal plants?

Brief Overview
India having an installed capacity share of close to 60% from coal fired power plants which contribute to range hovering over 70% actual power generation levels, the cycling of these plants to meet load variability translates to an inescapable reality for the country. Quite bizarre but this happens every day as the power system is operated. Historically, the cycling requirements were largely restricted to the plants which are non-pithead which pushed the operating costs higher. However, in recent times with the relative surplus showing up in the country, even the inexpensive power has been backed down to maintain a balance in the grid and preventing the other plants going offline. This has led to the Grid Operators in India striving to strike a balance to keep the costs low coupled with maintaining a degree of fairness as well for other generators.
On Point Query
ON – POINT QUERY: With coal-fired plants still dominating both the installed and actual generation, will the entire value chain be impacted with higher ingress of RE in the country?
What's included
With India planning large utility-scale jump in renewable energy capacities being integrated to grid, the variations in the net load and hence the demand on the conventional generators would further increase and translate to become more frequent.
