<p><a href="https://www.mercomindia.com/grid-violations-risk-indias-energy-transition" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>India’s power system must safely and successfully accelerate the adoption of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) such as solar, storage, and electric vehicles for it to meet its climate</strong></a> and energy goals, the U.S.-based National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has said. Increased DER integration will curb the country’s emissions and lower customers’ costs, improve system reliability, and present economic opportunities for India’s private sector. At the same time, more DERs mean the state utilities that manage India’s grid must grapple with the potential impacts, such as voltage violations and demand shifts, that DERs may have on the country’s medium- and low-voltage distribution networks.</p>
