Q. Where was the South Asia’s largest Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) launched?
Answer: Delhi
Notes: Recently, the Delhi Power Minister inaugurated a 20-Megawatt (MW) Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at Kilokari in South Delhi. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are large-scale batteries that store energy from sources like solar and wind for later use. They help make green energy more dependable by storing power and feeding extra electricity back to the main grid. This Delhi BESS is South Asia’s largest utility-scale system and India’s first commercially approved energy storage system. It has a total storage capacity of 40 Megawatt-hours (MWh). It uses Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) technology, which is safe, stable, and works well in Delhi’s climate.
