New Delhi | 08 May 2024 — In a significant step forward for India’s energy transition, the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) has granted regulatory approval of India’s first commercial standalone Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project.
With policy support and technological advancements, India’s battery storage sector is set for a major transformation. BESS, set to reach 66 GW by 2032, will cut emissions, boost grid stability, and lower energy costs, shaping India’s clean energy future.
Below is a list of the top players driving innovation and production of BESS in India: Exide Energy Solutions: A subsidiary of Exide Industries, it is setting up a 12 GWh lithium-ion battery manufacturing plant in Bengaluru. The company is well-positioned due to its legacy in battery tech and its shift toward clean energy solutions.
Last week (4 April), IndiGrid, a power sector infrastructure investment trust, announced the commissioning of a 20MW/40MWh utility-scale standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) in Delhi, India’s capital territory.
As of early to mid-2025, India’s operational BESS capacity has seen significant growth, with projections indicating a robust expansion to approximately 74 GW / 411 GWh by 2032.
India’s urgent need for BESS integration in the distribution grid is underscored by the country’s substantial Variable Renewable Energy (VRE) penetration, which exceeds 12% in certain regions.
The global residential solar storage and inverter market is experiencing rapid expansion, with demand increasing by over 300% in the past three years. Home energy storage solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new residential solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 38% market share, driven by homeowner energy independence goals and federal tax credits that reduce total system costs by 26-30%. Europe follows with 32% market share, where standardized home storage designs have cut installation timelines by 55% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets are adopting residential storage for backup power and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 4-7 years. Modern home installations now feature integrated systems with 10-30kWh capacity at costs below $700/kWh for complete residential energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving home solar storage and inverter performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 40% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,200/kW to $650/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow home systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing homeowner savings by 35% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 25% for solar storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $600/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with residential projects typically achieving payback in 5-8 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard home systems (5-10kWh) starting at $8,000 and premium systems (15-20kWh) from $12,000, with financing options available for homeowners.
