Fewer power cuts and more clean energy on the grid: NLC India's renewable arm NIRL has won the rights to build a 265 MW / 530 MWh battery storage system in Haryana, awarded by SJVN through competitive bidding. Big batteries soak up surplus solar and wind power during the day and release it when homes and factories need it most, steadying supply and letting more clean energy onto the grid. Government viability-gap funding backs the project, which adds a long-term income stream for the company.
