Prasenjit Das Email & Phone Number

Kolkata Area, India

Prasenjit is leading the growth and uptake of TCS' Industrial-IOT in the Utilities Power Generation industry.For the past 1.5 years, have been actively pursuing the growth of renewables footprint within my current organization. Presently heading an initiative that is conceiving data-oriented solutions encompassing renewables, starting with wind energy as it is the most mature of the renewables portfolio for EU nations who have been the pioneer of wind energy. Solar follows but it's penetration is not as prolific as wind. Though the uptake of renewables is appreciable but current policy regulations still hinder the full fledged adoption. Moreover, intermittency of renewables generation poses a challenge of its power integration with the the grid. So it is expected that the market of utility scale batteries will grow rapidly - not only arresting the curtailment of wind power but also providing the required capacity firming and the other ancillary services that are vital for the grid operations. Needless to mention that with the advent of renewables, new market interaction mechanisms will come providing flexibility to all parties and new opportunities to sell and procure power. Looking forward to the opportunities that the changing eco-system provides.
