Tata Power, AutoGrid expands smart energy management system in Mumbai

Tata Power hopes to engage 55,000 residential and 6,000 large C&I customers in order to reduce peak capacity by 75 MW.
An industry-leading Virtual Power Plant (VPP) and Distributed Energy Management System (DERMS) provider, AutoGrid, and Tata Power, one of India’s largest integrated power companies, today announced a historic new initiative to deploy an AI-enabled smart energy management system focusing on behavioural demand response across its residential, commercial, and industrial customers in Mumbai. This innovative approach will boost India’s transition to renewable energy and net-zero Goals while assisting with difficulties related to peak demand.
The demand response management programme, which will serve Tata Power’s customers in Mumbai, the country’s most populous city, aims to involve 55,000 residential consumers and 6,000 large C&I customers to reduce peak capacity by 75 MW within the first six months of the rollout, starting in February 2023, and then continue to scale up to 200 MW by the summer of 2025.
With the introduction of a demand response programme for Tata Power Delhi Distribution’s residential customers in Delhi in 2021, the two businesses’ cooperation officially began. Tata Power considerably increased the initiative throughout the Delhi distribution region in 2022 based on the results of this engagement. To reach all consumer demographics, AutoGrid is now expanding this initiative throughout Tata Power’s distribution areas.
