Energy Storage Summit India 2026
India's energy transformation is being written right now. Will you be part of it?
By 2030, India will need 61 GW/218 GWh of energy storage capacity (Source: India Energy & Climate Center), a scale that seemed unimaginable until utility scale commissioning had taken place in earnest since late 2024.
The Energy Storage Summit India returns for its second edition, bringing together the visionaries, innovators, and decision-makers turning this vision into reality. With the theme "Unlocking Grid Capacity and Driving Energy Storage Development in India," this is the epicenter where India's clean energy future is being built, deal by deal, project by project.
The Perfect Storm: Why Now is India's Energy Storage Moment
Multiple forces are converging to create what industry insiders call a "once-in-a-generation opportunity."
The numbers are compelling: Over 92 GWh of BESS projects are racing through development pipelines. Battery storage tariffs have crashed by nearly 65% in three years, crossing from "interesting concept" to "economically essential." What was once prohibitively expensive is now competitive.
The real catalyst? Unprecedented government commitment. The Energy Storage Obligation (ESO) is a mandate reshaping how India integrates renewables. INR 3,760 crore in Viability Gap Funding is unlocking 4,000 MWh of capacity. Another INR 18,100 crore through the Production Linked Incentive scheme is turbocharging domestic ACC battery manufacturing.
This isn't incremental change. This is transformation at velocity.
