AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoGrid Storage: Eskom is seeking a partner for South Africa’s 1.5GW Tubatse pumped-storage project, designed to balance rising renewable generation and strengthen grid reliability. A proposed 500MW pumped-storage plant in Washington state would use treated wastewater and deliver power for up to eight hours. Supply Strains: Tamil Nadu plans to buy costly power at more than ₹30 per unit to avoid peak-hour cuts; despite 3,500MW of wind contracts, just 500MW was being supplied. In the Philippines, officials warn the Visayas grid could face shortages through 2028 and say batteries and new plants are urgently needed. Renewables and Networks: India’s clean power generation hit a quarterly record, with solar output up 39% and wind up 29% year-on-year. But grid constraints are also forcing solar curtailment, underscoring the need for stronger transmission and storage.
