Debi Prasad Dash, Executive Director, India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA) said, “We are excited to partner with SMA India for bringing together a seminar focused on energy storage with grid forming capability. Advanced energy storage is a swiftly evolving technology sector crucial for 21st-century electricity grids. Battery Energy Storage (BESS) will play an important role in accelerating electricity and grid decarbonization in India. The Indian Energy Storage market is gearing up for large-scale energy storage deployment and Production Link Incentive (PLI) for Advanced Chemistry Cell (ACC) Battery Manufacturing.”
Karan Singh, Director Sales and Marketing-SEA, South Korea, and India (SMA Solar) said, “India is one of the fastest-growing solar markets in the world and requires regional expertise to speed the country’s transition to a clean energy economy. As an organization that firmly believes in providing innovative and sustainable solutions to minimize the global climate crisis, SMA`s goal is to combine long-term business success with environmental protection and social responsibility. With this alliance, we hope to bring relevant knowledge under one roof for the respective institutions, regulatory authorities and grid operators to define the technical and economic framework for the industry.”
