India's BESS market is expanding rapidly with a new 13.2 GWh subsidized storage target. Discover investment opportunities, funding allocations, and key market trends.
Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI): INR 3.24 billion for 1.2 GWh of BESS. State Governments: INR 16.2 billion for 6 GWh of BESS across Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Telangana, Bihar, and Kerala. Public Sector Entities: INR 13.5 billion allocated to NTPC, NHPC, and Satluj Jal Vidyut Nigam for 5 GWh of BESS projects.
As per McKinsey & Company, the market size of the BESS ecosystem is expected to reach $150 billion by 2030. Thus, blended financing as a financial model should be considered, where public capital can be used as a first-loss capital for BESS projects. This offers private financers the comfort of providing capital at a competitive rate.
As per the International Energy Agency (IEA), global BESS capacity was 85 GW (approximately 190 GWh) at the end of 2023 and is expected to reach 400 GW (over 1,200 GWh) by 2030 to enable the seamless grid integration of renewable energy, with the net zero 2050 emissions scenario as a target.
As of March 2024, India’s BESS capacity was around 111.7 MW/219.1 MWh, but has been rapidly adding capacity, with numerous new projects being commissioned and tendered in early to mid-2025, including large-scale utility systems. Tenders for 3625 MW / 8100 MWh of standalone BESS were floated in 2024 alone. BESS is critical for:
