Trontek to Unveil 5-MWh BESS, Targets 12 GWh Capacity by 2028

Trontek Electronics, an Indian battery and energy technology company advancing the future of energy storage, will unveil its 5-MWh EKOM containerised Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at The Battery Show India 2026, marking a step in its evolution from mobility batteries to large-scale energy storage. With active manufacturing capacity of 3 GWh and plans to scale to 12 GWh by 2028, the company is building capabilities to address India’s expanding energy storage needs. Trontek will showcase EKOM at Stall C16, Hall 18, from October 22–24, 2026, at India Expo Mart & Centre, Greater Noida.

The launch expands Trontek’s presence into large-scale energy storage, bringing its battery expertise to applications beyond electric mobility. Designed for industrial and utility-scale requirements, the EKOM platform addresses the growing role of energy storage in renewable energy integration, power management and the evolving needs of India’s energy infrastructure.

The unveiling comes as energy storage gains strategic importance in India’s energy transition. As renewable energy capacity expands and electricity demand evolves, BESS is emerging as a critical enabler of greater flexibility in how power is stored, managed and deployed. Trontek’s move into this segment reflects its ambition to participate in this expanding market through locally developed and manufactured solutions.

Building on more than two decades of experience in battery technology and manufacturing, Trontek is extending its capabilities across a broader range of energy applications. The company is targeting 12 GWh of manufacturing capacity by 2028.

Speaking ahead of the unveiling, Samrath S. Kochar, Founder & CEO, Trontek, said, “Energy storage is becoming central to how India powers its next phase of growth. With EKOM, we are taking Trontek’s two-decade battery expertise into large-scale energy storage, building capabilities in India for the country’s evolving industrial and energy needs. Our ambition is to contribute to a globally competitive Indian energy storage ecosystem.”

The unveiling of Trontek’s 5-MWh EKOM containerised Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) marks the company’s expansion into large-scale energy storage, extending its battery technology expertise to industrial and utility-scale applications. 

At The Battery Show India 2026, Trontek will showcase its portfolio across electric mobility, energy storage, and power and critical infrastructure solutions. Its electric mobility segment includes battery solutions for two-wheelers, three-wheelers and other mobility applications. 

Under energy storage, the company offers POWERCUBE for residential applications, NOVARA for commercial facilities and EKOM for industrial and utility-scale storage, including the newly unveiled 5-MWh system. Its power and critical infrastructure portfolio includes inverters and solar solutions for distributed energy applications, along with battery systems for telecom infrastructure and backup power requirements. 

The portfolio reflects Trontek’s expansion from a mobility-focused battery business into a broader energy technology company, with Made-in-India solutions spanning mobility, distributed energy and large-scale energy storage.

A key pillar of Trontek’s expansion is the development of energy storage solutions suited to Indian market requirements, supported by local engineering and manufacturing capabilities. As demand grows across residential, commercial, industrial and utility applications, the company sees an opportunity to build scale while contributing to the development of India’s domestic energy storage ecosystem.
