This helps in maintaining an uninterrupted and quality power supply for essential services, improving the overall resiliency of the grid.\u00a0 \t&#8220;This microgrid plant with 100kW floating solar system and 218kWh with battery storage is in place now for trial and we will study and analyse for a\u00a0year before deciding to expand the model in other locations within our distribution area,&#8221; CESC MD (Distribution) Debasish U Banerjee told PTI.<\/p>\n<p>The study\u00a0 and analysis of the performance of this small microgrid trial project will provide valuable insights for scaling up this technology to reap maximum benefits for our consumers, in future,\u00a0the official said.<\/p>\n<p>During the daytime, the microgrid will supply local load of the substation sourcing green power from the floating solar plant covering 6000 sq ft.
