India’s Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) sector witnessed notable developments in July 2025, marked by key policy advancements, project awards, and the release of new tenders. These milestones reflect the country’s growing focus on energy storage as a critical enabler of renewable energy integration and grid stability.
India’s clean energy ambitions are accelerating, and energy storage technologies will play a vital role in shaping that future. As the share of renewables continues to rise, the demand for flexible, reliable, and scalable energy storage systems is expected to grow significantly.
Battery Energy Storage is the linchpin of India’s renewable future. From raw material security to AI-driven smart grids, every element of the ecosystem is evolving. With Amara Raja and startups at the forefront, and strong policy support, India is poised not just to adopt but to lead the global BESS revolution by 2035.
India will require a total investment of US$55 billion between 2022 and 2032 to realise the same for energy storage systems (ESS, including BESS and pumped hydro). This, from an installed base of 500MWh of BESS and 4.8GW of PSP. i.e. almost nothing!
