Juniper Green Energy Ltd has commissioned 60 megawatt-hours (MWh) of its 100 MWh merchant battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Bikaner, Rajasthan, marking its first operational merchant storage asset, the company said on Wednesday. A merchant battery energy storage system (merchant BESS) is a grid-connected battery project that operates without a long-term power purchase agreement and instead earns revenue by participating directly in electricity markets.

The General Network Access (GNA) framework came into effect after the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC) notified the GNA Regulations on June 7, 2022. The regime establishes a non-discriminatory and flexible mechanism for both renewable and conventional generators to access the Inter-State Transmission System (ISTS). It aims to reform grid access by simplifying procedures and improving transparency in transmission planning.
For renewable energy developers, the framework has been a significant confidence booster. By reducing procedural requirements and enabling long-term visibility of transmission capacity, GNA has made it easier for large renewable projects to inject power into the grid. In essence, the regime offers a more streamlined, predictable pathway for integrating green energy into the national network with fewer bottlenecks.
