Prostarm Info Systems is establishing a 1.2 GWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) plant in Jhajjar, Haryana, with a ₹25 crore investment. Learn how this boosts India’s renewable energy storage.
Boosting India’s Renewable Energy Storage Capabilities with ₹25 Crore Investment
Mumbai-based Prostarm Info Systems, a leading power infrastructure developer, is set to establish a 1.2 GWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) manufacturing plant in Jhajjar, Haryana, by FY 2026. With an investment of ₹25 crore ($2.9 million), this facility will cater to commercial, industrial, and utility-scale energy storage demands, reinforcing India’s push toward sustainable energy solutions.
Key Highlights of the Upcoming BESS Facility
✔ Location: Reliance Model Economic Township, Jhajjar (9-year land lease)
✔ Capacity: 1.2 GWh battery storage production
✔ Investment: ₹25 crore ($2.9 million)
✔ Expected Commissioning: FY 2026
This development aligns with India’s growing demand for energy storage solutions, following a record 341 MWh of BESS installations in 2024 (as per Mercom India).
Why This BESS Plant Matters for India’s Renewable Energy Growth
1. Strengthening India’s Energy Storage Infrastructure
With the rise of solar and wind power, efficient energy storage is crucial to stabilize the grid and ensure uninterrupted power supply. This plant will enhance India’s large-scale BESS manufacturing capabilities, reducing reliance on imports.
2. Supporting Commercial & Industrial (C&I) and Utility-Scale Applications
The facility will produce advanced lithium-ion battery packs for:
- Industrial & commercial power backup
- Grid-scale renewable energy storage
- Electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure
3. Creating Jobs & Boosting Local Economy
The project will generate employment opportunities in Haryana while supporting India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India) mission in energy storage technology.
