Replacing Diesel in High-Rise Towers, NOIDA

High-density residential and commercial towers needing 2 to 5 MW face severe outages and strict anti-diesel mandates.

Challenge

  • Burning 15 to 20 litres of diesel per hour
  • OPEX of INR 18 to 20 per kWh
  • Local PM2.5 above 150 μg/m³, violating CAQM directives

Solution

  • Custom LiFePO4 BESS, 500 kWh to 2.4 MWh per tower
  • Integrated with existing solar (or standalone)
  • Legacy DG retained only as tier-2 fail-safe

Outcomes

From ~INR 20/kWh on diesel to INR 2 to 3/kWh on BESS

85–90%

cost savings: from ~INR 20/kWh (diesel) to INR 2 to 3/kWh (BESS)
