Accelerating India's Energy Transition: Insights from India Energy Storage Week 2025
Key Ideas
- India aims to meet 50% of its electricity from renewables by 2030, prompting the need for innovative grid stability solutions and energy storage deployment acceleration.
- IESW 2025, to be held in New Delhi, will gather industry players to showcase cutting-edge energy storage technologies and discuss policy frameworks for sustainable growth.
- IESA recommends a robust policy framework, supply chain assessment, material security study, and integration of energy storage planning with power distribution for a secure energy future.
- The industry also highlights the importance of incorporating recycling guidelines, improving the ancillary services market, and reducing entry barriers to support energy storage deployment in India.
India is set to play a significant role in meeting global energy demand by 2040, with a focus on renewable sources to achieve its ambitious goal of 50% electricity from renewables by 2030. To address the need for grid stability and flexibility, the India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA) has proposed a policy and regulatory framework ahead of the India Energy Storage Week (IESW) 2025. The event, scheduled in New Delhi, will serve as a platform for stakeholders to discuss energy storage solutions including Solid-state batteries, Lithium Sulfur, and Sodium Ion technologies.
Key recommendations by IESA include supply chain assessment, material security study, and integrated energy storage planning with power distribution. They stress the importance of collaboration between central and state levels for grid planning and urge manufacturers to incorporate recycling guidelines into their design processes. Moreover, IESA highlights the need to improve the ancillary services market and reduce barriers for technology adoption.
The government's support for clean energy technologies is crucial in fostering innovation and investment. The collaborative efforts between the government and businesses can lead to sustainable growth in India's energy storage market. With a focus on a resilient energy system and achieving net zero emissions goals, IESW 2025 will bring together industry leaders and global experts to drive India's energy transition forward.
