NTPC Green Energy invites bids for 7,800 MWh BESS at Bikaner solar plant

SolarNews Brief

NTPC Green Energy has invited bids for a 7,800 MWh battery energy storage system at its Bikaner solar plant in Rajasthan, according to SolarQuarter. The tender is one of the day’s strongest solar-storage signals because it links very large battery capacity directly to a utility-scale solar asset.

The Bikaner tender underlines how Indian renewable developers are moving toward dispatchable solar projects rather than daytime-only generation. A multi-gigawatt-hour BESS can support peak shifting, grid stability, and firmer delivery profiles in a state with major solar buildout. The procurement also complements India’s broader push to pair renewable expansion with storage capacity that can absorb midday surplus and serve evening demand.
