In the context of India's energy transition, what is the primary operational challenge faced by the integration of large-scale solar and wind energy into the national grid, and how is it being addressed?
Options:
- A: Low efficiency of photovoltaic cells; addressed by replacing all solar panels with concentrated solar thermal systems.
- B: Lack of land availability; addressed by shifting all future renewable projects exclusively to offshore floating platforms.
- C: High transmission losses over short distances; addressed by converting all AC transmission lines to low-voltage DC lines.
- D: Grid instability due to intermittency; addressed by developing Green Energy Corridors, Pumped Storage Projects (PSPs), and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).
