3 Energy Transition Roadmap Towards 100% Renewable Energy for India by 2050Ashish Gulagi [email protected]
Motivation• India is one of the fastest growing country in terms of
electricity consumption and economic developmentElectricity consumption grew at a CAGR of more than 7% from 2001-2015 Total electricity consumption in 2015 was higher by 151% of the total consumption in 2001GDP grew by 7.3% over the same period.
• High dependence on fossil fuel for electricity generation to satisfy the growing electricity demand
Coal dominates the generation system leading to alarmingly high levels air pollution in major citiesIncrease in imports of fossil fuels due to depleting domestic reservesSubsidies for fossil fuel of about ~40 bUSD/a
• The aim of the government to achieve 100% electrification with keeping in mind climate change agreements.

Motivation• Radical transformation initiated in the energy sector after signing the
COP21 agreementTarget for installation of 175 GW of renewables by 2022 which includes 100 GW of solar and 60 GW of windLaunching of International Agency for Solar Policy and Applications, biggest
initiative for solar energy development in tropical countries with 121 member countries
• Huge potential for all renewable energy sources, particularly solarIndia lies in the sunniest region with 250-300 clear sunny days. Technical potential estimated is about 11380 GWAbout 585 GW of technical wind potential
• Rapid decrease in solar prices which can be seen from a recent lowest solar tariff of 49.4 USD/MWh.
• According to KPMG, electricity generation from solar power will find breakeven from imported coal in 2015 and domestic coal in 2019.
• Large scale deployment of renewables in the future would require various storage solutions

LCOE for country-wide scenario will be 52 €/MWhIntegration of the power sector with desalination and non-energetic industrial demand reduces the cost of electricity and LCOE is 46 €/MWh
• Solar PV dominates the total installed capacities and electricity generation with wind and hydro complementing in period of low solar radiation
• Batteries are utilised from 2025 when share of renewables exceeds 50% and gas storage is utilised from 2040 when share of renewables exceeds 80%
• For the total electricity demand in 2050 for the country-wide and integrated scenarios, 46% and 40% comes from storage technologies, respectively
• After 2035, the battery output contributes approximately 14% to the total electricity demand, increasing to 42% by 2050 in the country-wide scenario
• Solar PV and batteries will form the backbone of a fully sustainable electricity based system in India
• Installed wind capacities are utilized in the period of low solar radiation and monsoon, when the wind conditions are excellent in some parts of India
• More investment in RE would enable India to achieve their climate change mitigation goals and zero carbon emissions
