Increase in Adoption of Lithium-Ion Batteries for Energy Storage Systems
The increasing deployment of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries is a key trend shaping the India Energy Storage Systems (ESS) market. For instance, the demand for lithium-ion batteries during the FY2024 was approximately 15 GWh in India, mainly propelled by customer electronics and EVs sector. This demand is anticipated to elevate to 127 GWh by the year FY2030. Li-ion technology is favored for its high energy density, longer lifespan, and improved efficiency as compared to conventional lead-acid batteries. The declining cost of lithium-ion batteries, driven by advancements in manufacturing and supply chain optimization, is further accelerating their adoption in grid-scale and distributed energy storage applications. Additionally, government initiatives promoting battery energy storage solutions (BESS) for renewable integration and peak load management are fueling the demand. With the rising penetration of solar and wind power, the need for reliable energy storage to address intermittency issues is increasing. Furthermore, the growing emphasis on electric mobility and hybrid energy storage solutions is expanding the application of Li-ion batteries beyond grid support, making them a crucial component of India’s transition towards a sustainable energy ecosystem.
Increasing Investments in Renewable Energy-Integrated Storage Solutions
India’s push toward renewable energy expansion is driving significant investments in energy storage systems (ESS) to enhance grid stability and efficiency. With ambitious targets for solar and wind energy capacity, integrating ESS solutions is becoming essential for managing supply-demand fluctuations. For instance, as per industry reports, India reported to add around 3.4 GW of wind capacity and 24.5 GW of solar capacity in the year 2024, with solar energy accounting for 47% of the total renewable capacity in the country. Moreover, government policies, such as the National Energy Storage Mission, are promoting the deployment of storage technologies to support renewable energy grid integration and improve power reliability. Additionally, hybrid renewable energy projects incorporating battery storage are gaining traction, enabling round-the-clock clean energy supply. Large-scale investments from both public and private entities are fostering the development of advanced storage infrastructure, including pumped hydro storage and battery-based solutions. The emergence of energy storage as a service (ESaaS) is also encouraging industries and utilities to adopt flexible storage models. As India advances toward its renewable energy goals, investments in ESS solutions will play a crucial role in ensuring grid resilience and energy security.
