Ayana Renewable Power (Ayana), a Bengaluru-based renewable energy platform, has partnered with Hyderabad-based Greenko Group for 6GWh of pumped-hydro storage capacity. Greenko Group will offer the capacity from a pumped-hydro storage project it is developing in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.
“Greenko Group has offered in total 6GWh of storage capacity including 1.5GWh of storage capacity in the first tranche from its proprietary ‘off stream closed loop pumped storage project’ being developed at Pinnapuram in Andhra Pradesh,” the two companies said in a joint statement.
“This partnership between Ayana and Greenko is in line with the Ministry of Power and Ministry of New and Renewable Energy mission to create a standalone storage market in India,” said Mahesh Kolli, founder, president and joint managing director of Greenko. “Such integrated renewable energy and storage projects, offering solutions superior to conventional energy sources in terms of dispatchability and round-the-clock supply, reflect the growing maturity of the renewable sector in India.”
