The installation, based on Delectrik’s large-scale product architecture, is designed for commercial, industrial, and utility-scale applications. It will be deployed in the first half of 2025 at the NETRA campus in Greater Noida, India.
The system will enhance NETRA's microgrid, providing long-duration energy storage (LDES) to achieve full one-day autonomy, making the facility self-sufficient for its power needs.
NTPC, India’s largest power utility, has an installed capacity of over 76 GW and aims to reach 130 GW by 2032, with 60 GW dedicated to renewable energy. According to the National Electricity Plan (NEP 2023), India’s stationary BESS demand is expected to reach 411 GWh by 2031-32, highlighting the potential for energy storage systems.
Dr. Vishal Mittal, Founder & CEO of Delectrik stated, “MWh scale tender and award is a big vote of confidence from NTPC in Delectrik's Flow Battery based BESS and their potential to meet the future grid scale requirement in India. This project in many ways will kickstart the large-scale Flow Battery deployments in India.”
He further added, “In addition to the low product cost the capital investment required to manufacture GWh scale Flow Batteries is 10-20x lower compared to Li-ion batteries. This is key as India looks to ramp up its BESS manufacturing capability to >100 GWh. For large installations, the per acre capacity can be increased to 200 MWh. This represents <1% of the area required for PV installation of equivalent capacity.”
