With renewables overtaking coal-based sources in India’s installed power capacity, concerns are growing around intermittency, grid stability, and power balancing as solar and wind power injection increases. Solar-heavy states such as Rajasthan and Gujarat are already facing rising risks of curtailment and transmission congestion. Developers say technologies such as Automatic Generation Control (AGC) and grid-forming inverters, along with storage deployment and transmission expansion, will become increasingly important to maintaining grid reliability, efficiency, and resilience as renewable penetration rises.
