Head of Chennai Electricity Supply Company (CESC), R. S. Krishnan, has announced a groundbreaking initiative to tackle peak power demand in Tamil Nadu by installing six massive batteries to store renewable energy. The project aims to revolutionize the state’s power sector by investing in cutting-edge technology. The batteries, with a total capacity of 0.5 GW, will be set up at different locations across Tamil Nadu over the next two years. This move is part of the state government’s efforts to promote sustainable energy solutions and reduce dependence on traditional power sources. Krishnan highlighted the importance of adopting renewable energy sources like solar and wind to meet the growing energy needs of the state. The installation of these batteries will help store excess energy generated during off-peak hours and distribute it during peak demand periods, ensuring a more stable and reliable power supply. The project is expected to not only improve energy efficiency but also reduce carbon emissions, contributing to a cleaner and greener environment. With this ambitious initiative, Tamil Nadu is set to lead the way in renewable energy adoption and set a benchmark for other states to follow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
