Technical Studies
Pilots
Grid-scale BESS Pilot Project Puducherry, POWERGRID, FY 2017-18 TATA Power & AES Grid-scale BESS Project of 10 MWh, Yr. 2019 TERI-WBSEDCL BESS Pilot Projects at Distribution-level* BHEL awarded TERI-BRPL BESS Pilot Project at Distribution-level-2020
under UI-ASSIST project* (* Ongoing)
TERI completed sizing and pre feasibility study of BESS for three urban pilot locations
Issuance of Purchase Order to BHEL (Given on 29 June 2020) Installation & commissioning of pilots as per allocated time
schedule (3-4 months)
Scheme
MNRE draft Scheme (2020) for round-the-clock power RE power may include solar, wind, small
hydro, or a combination thereof, with or without any ESS.
Tenders
SECI tender For firm peak power supply from RE+ storage in 2020 For RTC scheme in 2019

Energy Storage: Policy issues- Way Forward
Methodology for augmentation of electricity distribution infrastructure to be revisited keeping in view non-wire options such as demand-side measures and BESS
Development of aggregators market in-order to incentivize behind-the-meter storage
SERCs may consider DSM & BESS pilot projects at critical nodes of distribution network in-order to develop evidence based plans/ road-map
Community-level energy storage for management of local distribution system
Deployment of BESS as back-up power source in place of the DG sets and ancillary services
Amendment of Connectivity Regulations and Grid Code to enable BESS injection
8
Micro-grid : Existing Policy Provisions & IssuesDraft Amendments to Tariff Policy, 2016
Recognizes importance of ensuring last-mile connectivity & supply reliability
Underlines need for an appropriate regulatory framework to mandate compulsory purchase of power into the grid from micro-grids
MNRE’s Guidelines for Development of Decentralized Solar Power Plants PM-KUSUM scheme
State level policies and regulations for stand alone system States (UP, Bihar, Odisha, Jharkhand, MP & Chhattisgarh)
Enabling policy for micro-grid coordination and seamless interoperability
Facilitate business models and metering regulations(Virtual Net Metering/ Group Net Metering) to promote DER-based micro-grids at Distribution-level
Suitable incentives and regulatory approvals for P2P energy trading within DERs as well as networked micro-grids
Consider micro-grid implementation based upon IEEE Standard 1547-2018
Policy issues– Way Forward

Cyber Infrastructure and Cyber Security :Existing Framework
IT Act, 2000: Amended in 2008 CERT-In, 2004 National Cyber Security Policy,
2013 NCIIPC, Oct 2014- created by
Government of India under section 70 A of IT Act
Dedicated sectoral CERTscreated by MoP in 2017 including one on Distribution
ISGF/ VJTI Documentation IT Rules, 2011 framed under
the IT Act, 2000 mandates- IS/ ISO/ IEC codes of best
practices for data protection ISO:27001 is recognized as
one such recommended standard
IS-16335 : 2015 Power Control Systems-Security Requirement
Policy Issues-Way Forward
Every utility to follow NIST cyber security framework V1for improving critical infrastructure which containsrecommendations for- Identification of cyber assets and users Detection of ongoing threats & Response strategy Protection from cyber attacks (IEC 62443 standard)
& Recovery mechanism Regular internal and external audit for the cyber security
