The expansion will incorporate automation, artificial intelligence, and data-driven manufacturing processes. The facility will adopt a technology-agnostic approach to cell chemistry, allowing it to work with various types of battery cells, including sodium-ion, LMFP, and LTO. Products from the expanded plant will serve electric vehicles and grid-scale renewable energy installations.
"At LNJ Bhilwara Group, we have always been at the forefront of advancing clean energy technologies across our diverse business ventures. The expansion of the Replus plant to 6GWh marks a significant milestone in our commitment to driving India's sustainable growth and energy transition," said Riju Jhunjhunwala, Vice Chairman of LNJ Bhilwara Group.
Hiren Pravin Shah, Managing Director and CEO of Replus, added that the company aims to play a key role in shaping the future of energy storage globally through the integration of automation and next-generation battery technologies.
The expansion aligns with the Indian government's ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ (self-reliant India) initiative, which seeks to strengthen local manufacturing capabilities.
Replus, established in 2019 as a technology-led manufacturing startup approved by the Government of India's Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), has focused on Battery Energy Storage Systems since its inception. The company reports experience with 70 MWh of BESS projects and claims a confirmed order pipeline of 600 MWh for BESS projects and 300 MWh for EV battery packs.
The parent company, LNJ Bhilwara Group, was founded in 1960 in Rajasthan and has since grown into a diversified conglomerate with 17 companies operating across textile, power, graphite electrode, and information technology sectors. The group reports an annual turnover exceeding 10,104 crore rupees (approximately USD 1.21 billion).
The expansion comes amid growing demand for battery storage solutions in India, as the country pursues ambitious renewable energy targets and electric vehicle adoption increases. Industry analysts note that domestic manufacturing capacity for batteries remains critical for India's energy transition plans and reducing dependence on imports.
