January 21, 2026
New Delhi — Two major Indian energy organizations, the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) and PTC India Ltd, have signed an agreement to jointly enhance the way renewable power is connected to the grid and traded in energy markets. The deal also focuses on promoting the use of battery energy storage systems to support the growing share of solar and wind power in the country’s electricity mix.
Under the memorandum of understanding (MoU), SECI and PTC India will work together to develop solutions that make it easier to integrate large amounts of renewable energy into the national grid, improve the flexibility of power systems, and support the creation of new market-based products for buying and selling clean power. The partnership includes exploring large-scale renewable projects linked with storage technologies to ensure stable and reliable electricity supply as renewable capacity expands.
The agreement was exchanged by Akash Tripathi, Managing Director of SECI, and Dr. Manoj Kumar Jhawar, Chairman and Managing Director of PTC India, in a formal ceremony attended by senior executives from both organizations. Key officials from SECI and PTC India took part in the process, highlighting their shared commitment to advancing India’s clean energy transition through stronger grid systems and market mechanisms.
Officials said the collaboration is designed to support India’s broader goals of increasing renewable energy deployment, strengthening grid reliability, and fostering competitive power trading that includes renewable and storage-backed solutions, which are seen as critical for the country’s energy transformation.
