NTPC has achieved a significant feat in India's clean energy journey by introducing the country's first CO₂ Battery Energy Storage System at the Kudgi super thermal power station in Karnataka. Developed in partnership with Energy Dome and Triveni Turbine Limited, this cutting-edge technology marks a pivotal moment in long-duration energy storage. The CO₂ Battery stands out for its remarkable features: - 100% Depth of Discharge - Lifespan exceeding 25 years - Environmentally friendly with no Lithium or Cobalt, ensuring sustainability and scalability - Enables continuous support for renewable energy sources Utilizing a Closed Brayton Cycle and capitalizing on CO₂ phase transitions for energy storage, this system presents a novel and cost-efficient solution compared to traditional storage methods. This initiative is in line with India's commitment to energy security, sustainability, and self-reliance, resonating with the #MakeInIndia and #AtmanirbharBharat vision. NTPC's pioneering efforts in clean energy innovation deserve applause, setting a benchmark for the industry. #EnergyStorage #RenewableEnergy #Decarbonization #Innovation #Sustainability #NTPC #CO2Battery

#NTPC Pioneers India’s First CO₂ Battery Energy Storage Project! Exciting times in India's energy transition! ⚡ NTPC Ltd, in collaboration with Triveni Turbine Ltd and Energy Dome, is launching a 160 MWh CO₂ battery energy storage project at the Kudgi Super Thermal Power Station in Karnataka. This marks a significant step toward long-duration energy storage (LDES) for delivering cost-effective, round-the-clock green power. 🔹 Why CO₂ Battery Technology? Unlike conventional lithium-ion BESS, this technology: ✅ Uses no lithium or rare-earth elements, making it supply-chain resilient. ✅ Leverages Closed Brayton Thermodynamic Cycle with anhydrous CO₂ for energy storage. ✅ Offers a very long lifespan (>25 years) with 100% depth of discharge. ✅ Requires minimal maintenance with no performance degradation over time. ✅ Is topography agnostic, making it deployable across various locations. NTPC’s R&D arm, NETRA, is leading this initiative to explore novel storage solutions for India's growing renewable energy capacity. This project also aligns with ‘Make in India’ & ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’, strengthening local supply chains. 💬 What does this mean for India’s energy sector? Could this be a game-changer for RTC power delivery?

A very happy morning to all... I Appreciate the efforts and expertise exhibited by NTPC in such a wonderful innovation... Which showcases India as the first ever Carbon Capture & Utilisation (CCU) on global levels.. I would like to know the following few clarifications for my learning and awareness. I would appreciate it if some technical experts can reply to this for a better understanding and upgrading the knowledge on a common platform: After reading this article, I searched for 3 questions on Google & the answers are: 1) What is the cost of Methanol per Kg? Ans: Rs 30-40/- 2) What amount of Hydrogen is required to produce Methanol? Ans: 0.19 Kg. 3) What is the cost of Hydrogen per Kg? Ans: Rs 300/- So from these 3 questions it's reflecting that to make 1 kg Methanol which is Rs 30-40/- we required 0.19 kg of hydrogen which cost us Rs 57/- and also lots of electricity is required in production. This needs clarity on actual cost incurred and whether it really leads to significantly raise or fall in the GREEN Energy Sector..?
