A study on the role of Discoms in using grid support services from solar rooftop PV systems and storage

August 1, 2019

This project focuses on exploring the use of storage systems and solar roof top systems to meet grid management services. The analysis will help in understanding cost benefit scenarios for the case studies. The report will serve as tool for DISCOMs to promote solar roof top systems and storage systems for such applications and thereby improving their financial viability.

Setting up of a 100 kg per day bio-methanation plant in NTPC Farakka

August 1, 2019

The main objective of this project is to install a solid waste treatment plant based on TERI's Enhanced Acidification and Methanation (TEAM) technology at PTS township, NTPC Farakka. This plant would treat 100 kg of organic waste generated from the kitchen. TERI will supply the TEAM equipment, erect, and commission the plant. The biogas produced from the plant will be used for partial replacement of LPG in the kitchen; and the manure will be used for horticulture purposes.
