Serentica Renewables has commissioned the first phase of a battery storage project that will help deliver round-the-clock (RTC) renewable energy in Rajasthan, India.

The Mumbai-headquartered developer announced the commissioning of a battery energy storage system (BESS) of 200MWh capacity in Bikaner, a city in Rajasthan close to the border with Pakistan that has become a hotbed of renewable energy development.

The company said the system represents Phase 1 of a total 1GWh BESS deployment at the site. It will enable the delivery of RTC renewable power to undisclosed commercial and industrial (C&I) customers, providing large industrial electricity users with 24/7 access to dispatchable clean energy.
