Cegasa – Energy Storage System for Peak Shaving Application Project at New Delhi (India)

A case study on a peak shaving project in New Delhi, India, featuring a 100 kWp ground-mounted PV plant and 466 kWh of Cegasa lithium LFP battery storage to address India's record-high peak electricity demand.

• A peak shaving project was implemented at the 'Shivalik Grid' premises of BSES Rajdhani Power Limited (BPRL) in New Delhi, built by RAACH SOLAR for GIZ India. The installation consists of a 100 kWp ground-mounted photovoltaic solar power plant paired with Cegasa lithium LFP batteries providing 466 kWh (48 Vdc) of storage capacity and 27 SMA Sunny Island 8.0H inverters.
• The project addresses the issue of peak power demand in India, which reached a record high of 200,57 GW as of July 7, 2021, according to Mr. Raj Kumar Singh of the Union Power Ministry.
• Cegasa, founded in 1934, manufactures industrial and lithium-ion batteries and energy storage solutions entirely in Europe, specializing in applications including off-grid installations, microgrids, peak shaving, and electric vehicle recharge.
