With India’s target to install 175 GW of renewables by 2022, the share of renewables is only going to grow, making the grid integration of these intermittent renewable resources into the country’s energy mix critical and at the same time challenging. Due to the intermittent nature of wind and solar energy, forecasting and scheduling are essential for stable and efficient grid management. According to Mercom India Solar Project Tracker, India has a cumulative solar installation of 33.8 GW as of Q3 2019.
