For the proposed expansion, the company has secured a 9-year lease from May 2025 to April 2034 of a land parcel, measuring 3,912.15 sq. meters, including a covered shed area of 34,000 sq. ft. The total capex planned for the project is INR 25 crore, which includes setup of advanced plant and machinery, office infrastructure, HVAC systems, power capacity upgrades, anti-static flooring, warehousing and other essential infrastructure to enable high-end assembly and integration, the company said in a statement.
The BESS unit will cater to both Commercial & Industrial (C&I) and Utility-scale applications. The facility is expected to be commissioned by the end of financial year 2026, and will support India’s growing demand for energy storage solutions, driven by the country’s ambitious renewable energy targets, it said.
Commenting on this development, Ram Agarwal, Whole Time Director and CEO, Prostarm Info Systems, said, “This strategic expansion marks our entry into the fast-growing BESS segment, which is a natural extension of our core expertise in power electronics. With this facility, the company aims to become one of India’s few OEMs manufacturing BESS solutions, allowing us to directly supply to EPC contractors and developers, thereby opening up significant new revenue opportunities.”
He further added, “We believe this strategic expansion positions Prostarm at the forefront of India’s energy transformation. In BESS, the company already secured 22 MWh order from Adani Electricity Mumbai Ltd. for design, supply, installation, commissioning and testing having contract value of INR 52 crore approximately and another LOI from Bihar State Power Generation Company Ltd. for 120 MWh on BOOT model with monthly rental of INR 4.44 lakh/MW for a period of 12 years.”
India’s battery energy storage system (BESS) market is projected to expand to 66 GW by 2032. The widespread adoption of BESS could help avoid over 2,000 million tonnes of CO2 emission. “The planned addition of 44+ GW of BESS capacity by 2030 is a critical step towards integrating renewable energy and enhancing grid stability. India’s BESS market is expanding due to the surge in renewable capacity as the country progress towards its 2030 renewable energy mission,” the company reasoned behind entering into BESS manufacturing.
It further added that BESS is gaining momentum due to several factors including emergence of BESS as a quick backup and hence, helps maintain GRID stability and restoration in case emergencies. C&I segment is also gradually shifting to BESS as a good alternate to Genset. Further, the decreasing cost of Lithium Ion batteries is making BESS more affordable.
