“…Access to transmission infrastructure is a significant challenge for renewable energy projects, and addressing this issue is critical for the successful deployment of renewable energy in India. The Green Energy Corridor Project, initiated by the Indian government, aims to synchronize the grid via integrating electricity generated from renewable sources like solar and wind with conventional power plants [93]. This project seeks to enhance the transmission infrastructure and facilitate the evacuation of renewable energy from highpotential states.…”

The significance of renewable energy in achieving necessary reductions in emissions to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius is widely acknowledged. However, there is growing concern over the allocation of land for constructing the required new infrastructure. Nowhere is this conflict more apparent than in India, where renewable energy targets are ambitious and land use conflicts are already significant. India intends to increase renewable energy to 500 GW by 2030. This would require an additional 42 GW of renewable energy to be installed every year. Although renewable energy can provide the solution to both India’s growing need for cheap energy and climate change mitigation, the sustainable future of renewable energy deployment is far from simple due to its associated land use impacts and socio-ecological risk. While others have highlighted challenges to India’s renewable energy targets, here we focus on the land use change issues that will need to be addressed for India to meet its targets. We introduce a series of recommendations and highlight how these could contribute to mainstreaming land values and facilitate the implementation of India’s 2030 renewable energy targets. These recommendations include suggested planning approaches that would guide the development of standard siting guidelines, identification of preferential “go-to” areas for renewable energy, and the development of tools that allow access to data and information to site renewable right. Policy recommendations highlight utilizing converted lands and existing built infrastructure for renewable energy development, and adapting existing policies so they address land use impacts.

“…Tamil Nadu transmission corporation limited (TANTRANSCO) is responsible in the state of Tamil Nadu for developing and maintaining a transmission network throughout the state by constructing new substations, transmission lines, and upgrading current systems to meet the state's future demand. TANTRANSCO's transmission network includes a 110 kV level and up to 765 kV grid network [1], connecting all types of generating stations such as thermal, hydel, nuclear, and gas plants, as well as major renewable energy (RE) pooling stations. High penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) in a power system means that RESs have superseded conventional power plants that already have historically controlled and maintained the power system, producing in unique power flow conditions.…”

The accessible large-scale renewable energy potential and its projected influence on Tamil Nadu's grid stability

Due to its inherent geographical potential for wind/solar power and other renewable energy sources (RES) generation, Tamil Nadu is one of the pioneering Indian states in the early development and utilisation of RES. Tamil Nadu accounts for roughly 25% of India's total wind energy capacity. Increased penetration of RES in a power system indicates that RESs have replaced traditional power plants that have historically managed and stabilised the power system, resulting in novel power flow situations. Grid stability must be enhanced in light of the integration of large-scale RES into the grid. The purpose of this research is to analyse and evaluate the impact of large-scale integration of RES by examining mitigating methods from the most recent academic articles and technical reports in this field. This will aid in identifying the key risks affecting the network's stability margin as a result of the widespread integration of RES generation, allowing for a reasonable increase in the network's stability margin. The study's findings will also help to guide the selection of appropriate mitigation strategies. As the stability margin improves, the future fraction of RES additions to the Tamil Nadu extra high voltage (EHV) grid will be increased significantly.
