Energy storage system roadmap for India: 2019-2032

Energy Storage System (ESS) is fast emerging as
an essential part of the evolving clean energy
systems of the 21st century. Energy storage
represents a huge economic opportunity for
India. Ambitious goals, concerted strategies,
and a collaborative approach could help India
meet its emission reduction targets while
avoiding import dependency for battery packs
and cells. This could help establish India as a hub
for cutting-edge research and innovation, boost
its manufacturing capabilities, create new jobs,
and foster economic growth. India’s strengths in
IT and manufacturing, its entrepreneurial and
dynamic private sector, and its visionary public
and private sector leadership will be key factors
in realizing these ambitions. Creation of a
conducive battery manufacturing ecosystem on
fast track could cement India’s opportunity for
radical economic and industrial transformation
in a critical and fast-growing global market.
