MUMBAI: Tata Power Renewables has launched its state-of-the-art Centre for Renewable Energy Analytics, Monitoring & Scheduling (CREAMS) at the company’s Trombay plant on August 20, highlighting a facility that is among the most advanced centralised renewable energy monitoring hubs in the country.CREAMS serves as Tata Power Renewables’ integrated digital command centre, providing real-time monitoring, analytics, forecasting, scheduling and performance optimisation of renewable energy assets spread across multiple states. The facility offers a unified view of the company’s solar and wind energy portfolio, enabling operators to track performance round the clock and take corrective measures whenever required.Operating through a robust digital infrastructure, the centre provides 24×7 surveillance and operational support for renewable assets, reflecting the growing role of technology and data-driven decision-making in India’s clean energy transition.The centralised platform has been designed to maximise power generation, improve asset reliability, ensure regulatory compliance and reduce operational losses. By combining data analytics with advanced monitoring systems, the control room helps enhance operational efficiency across geographically dispersed renewable energy projects, an official said.Officials said the facility continuously processes a vast volume of operational data generated by solar and wind installations every day. The information is analysed in real time to support energy forecasting, grid scheduling and asset health monitoring. CREAMS also helps identify performance deviations quickly, allowing teams to initiate timely interventions and improve plant availability.With renewable energy capacity expanding rapidly across the country, centralized control facilities such as CREAMS are increasingly becoming critical for efficient grid integration, generation forecasting and the reliable delivery of green power. Tata Power officials describe the Trombay-based facility as a key pillar in managing and optimising the company’s growing renewable energy portfolio.
