Standalone Energy Storage Systems (ESS) are becoming the backbone of India’s utility-scale ESS auctions, accounting for 64% of the total tenders issued between January and March 2025 alone, according to a new report by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) and JMK Research & Analytics.
“In recent auctions, battery energy storage system tenders in Maharashtra and Rajasthan secured tariffs as low as Rs219,000-221,000 per megawatt (MW) a month (US$2,561-$2,586/MW/month), representing almost a 40% reduction compared with non-VGF projects with similar specifications,” he added.
As per the tender, “ESS of at least 0.5 MW/2 MWh capacity for 1 MW solar project capacity must be installed as part of the project. ESS charged using a source other than solar power would not qualify as solar power. ESS may be owned by the developer or tied-up separately with a third party, for supply of power.
The report finds that various Indian agencies tendered 6.1 gigawatts (GW) of Standalone ESS capacity in the first three months of 2025. “Standalone ESS are ideal to facilitate the rapid development and deployment of variable renewable energy (VRE) resources across India.
According to a report published by the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), a large number of energy storage projects are being built worldwide, and there is a significant interest among policymakers in India as well.
