India's Battery Storage Demand and Renewable Energy Investments Expand Amid Viability Challenges
India's battery energy storage system (BESS) market is projected to reach 236.22 GWh by FY2031-32, requiring investments of Rs 3.49 trillion, supported by government initiatives. However, challenges persist with project viability, as some bids are unviable and cancellations have occurred. Meanwhile, wind power capacity may exceed 250 GW by 2035, surpassing current targets. Infrastructure firms like Dilip Buildcon and Gujarat Inject are expanding into renewable energy, signaling growing investment in solar and energy storage sectors amid mixed progress in new project announcements outside IT.
