ARCI develops easy-to-clean photovoltaic panel finishing
Indian researchers have actually established nanoparticle-based solar panel coating that lessens dust deposition as well as allows very easy cleaning by the activity of water, hence stopping a reduction in panel efficiency due to staining.
The finish was created by the International Advanced Research Centre for Powder Metallurgy and New Materials (ARCI), an independent company of the Department of Science as well as Technology.
Key features of this novel covering are its low cost, highly transparent nature (no loss in passage or power conversion performance), super-hydrophobic property (water call angle greater than 110 °), high weather stability as well as high mechanical security.
" The surface of a solar panel having super-hydrophobic finish replicates lotus leaf functions. The dropping of water effectively washes off the dirt and also various other pollutants from the panel surface area, comparable to that of a lotus fallen leave," claimed ARCI researchers.
" But most such products established in the US and also Europe appropriate for light weather and also can not endure severe ecological problems common in India."
India has the greatest typical staining rate of 0.6% per day contrasted to 0.1% in the United States, 0.05% in Japan and also 0.02% in Germany.
The ARCI researchers established the finishing making use of functional nanoparticles, that makes it simple to tidy as well as thus ideal for extreme Indian problems of high temperature, humidity and also high toxin degree.
The layer can be conveniently applied in an existing PV power generation field by a basic spray-and-wipe strategy.
Commercialization
The coating has actually been verified busy conditions according to the worldwide standards and efficiently validated on ground-mounted and rooftop solar power plants situated at various places in the country.
Two license applications have actually been declared this technology, as well as technical know-how has actually been transferred to NETRA (NTPC Energy Technology Research Alliance), New Delhi, for commercial usage.
A lot more just recently, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed with Marichin Technologies, Mumbai, for technology transfer, which plans to manufacture the easy-to-clean product for more comprehensive PV market fostering.

Inox, KP Energy Seal 2.5GW Wind-Solar Pact
India’s Inox Wind and KP Energy formed a strategic partnership to jointly develop 2.5 gigawatts of wind and hybrid wind-solar projects nationwide. The collaboration aims to accelerate deployment of low-cost renewables, aligning with India’s clean energy expansion goals and increasing capacity additions across multiple states.Inox Wind will provide wind turbine technology and EPC services, while KP Energy contributes project development, land acquisition, and site infrastructure. The partners plan to leverage complementary strengths to streamline execution and reduce project timelines. Financial terms and commissioning schedules weren’t disclosed. The pipeline targets utility-scale and potential commercial offtakers amid rising demand for reliable, affordable green power.
Which states and offtaker segments will anchor Inox–KP’s 2.5 GW hybrid pipeline?
Gujarat: Saurashtra–Kutch wind belts paired with solar in Banaskantha/Patan; mix of SECI hybrids and C&I open access
Rajasthan: Jaisalmer–Barmer wind with high-irradiance solar in Bikaner/Jodhpur; SECI hybrid/RTC offtake and green hydrogen developers
Karnataka: Gadag/Chitradurga wind with solar in Koppal/Vijayapura; C&I open access (IT, data centers) and state DISCOM tenders
Tamil Nadu: Tirunelveli/Thoothukudi wind with solar in Ramanathapuram; large industrial C&I (auto, textiles) and utility hybrids
Maharashtra: Satara/Sangli wind with solar in Dhule; C&I (cement, steel, chemicals) and MSEDCL hybrid procurements
Madhya Pradesh: Solar-rich sites in Rewa/Chhatarpur with supplemental wind via ISTS; SECI and C&I open access
Andhra Pradesh: Anantapur/Kadapa solar with coastal wind injections; industrial C&I and state utility hybrids
SECI/central procurement: ISTS-connected hybrid, RTC, and peak power tenders anchoring tranche awards
State DISCOMs: Hybrid and firm power procurements in Gujarat, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, and Karnataka
C&I open access: Data centers, auto, cement, steel, textiles, and chemicals seeking sub-Rs/kWh green power with round-the-clock profiles
Green hydrogen/ammonia: Emerging offtake clusters in Rajasthan and Gujarat needing firmed hybrid supply
Public sector/rail: Indian Railways, metro rail, refineries, and PSUs via long-term hybrid PPAs

Indian Railways JV Secures One Gigawatt Of Round-The-Clock Renewables Supply
Indian Railways’ power manager, REMCL, has selected six winners to supply 1 GW of round-the-clock (RTC) renewable energy—an important shift from simply buying green electrons to buying firm, dispatchable clean power. The tender structure rewards portfolios that combine wind, solar and multi-hour storage to hit hourly delivery targets through day and night, monsoon and dry season.
Why it matters: Rail is one of India’s largest electricity consumers. As traction networks electrify further and passenger and cargo demand grows, the system needs reliability as much as it needs low carbon. RTC contracts give developers bankable long-term cash flows, while giving the railway a predictable price for dependable megawatt-hours that show up when needed, not just when the sun shines.
Technically, winning bids will lean on geographic diversity—co-optimizing wind corridors and solar basins—plus batteries sized for two to four hours at strategic nodes. Grid-forming inverters, plant-level controllers and forecasting are essential to meet deviation penalties and grid-code requirements for ride-through, ramping and reactive power. Expect portfolios to keep reserve state-of-charge for evening peaks and to use day-ahead and real-time markets as a safety valve.
Delivery discipline will decide outcomes. Long-lead electrical gear (transformers, MV switchgear) and interconnections set timetables; standardized substations and modular battery blocks can compress schedules. On the commercial side, blended PPAs hedge weather and seasonal swings, with performance bonuses and penalties sharpening behavior.
Beyond the megawatts, there’s a services story. RTC fleets can provide frequency response and black-start support, easing stress on conventional plants. For communities, projects bring construction jobs, local procurement, and biodiversity-aware site designs—drainage for cloudbursts, low-glare layouts near tracks and highways, and credible end-of-life recycling.
The bottom line: India’s decarbonization is maturing from capacity targets to reliability targets. If the six portfolios deliver to spec, Indian Railways gets cleaner power it can actually plan around—and the market gets a scalable template for firm renewables at national scale.
