Prostarm Info Systems Limited announced on July 8, 2025, that it will establish its first Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) manufacturing facility at Reliance MET City, Jhajjar, Haryana. This move marks a significant expansion into the fast-growing BESS market, complementing Prostarm’s existing power electronics and critical power solutions business.
Key details of the project:
-
Capacity: 1.2 GWh annual manufacturing capacity.
-
Location: Reliance MET, Jhajjar, Haryana.
-
Land & Facility: 3,912.15 sq. meters of land on a 9-year lease (May 2025–April 2034), with a 34,000 sq. ft. covered shed.
-
Investment: Approx. ₹25 crore for advanced machinery, infrastructure, and power upgrades.
-
Timeline: Facility expected to be commissioned by the end of FY26.
-
Application: Will cater to both Commercial & Industrial (C&I) and Utility-scale energy storage needs.
Why is this important?
-
India’s BESS market is projected to grow from less than 0.2 GW today to 66 GW by 2032 — a massive opportunity.
-
BESS supports renewable energy integration, reduces CO₂ emissions, improves grid stability, and is becoming more affordable due to falling lithium-ion battery costs.
-
Prostarm aims to position itself among the few Indian OEMs in BESS manufacturing, targeting EPC contractors and developers directly.
Recent wins & future potential:
-
Already secured:
-
22 MWh order from Adani Electricity Mumbai Limited worth ~₹52 crore.
-
LOI from Bihar State Power Generation Company for a 120 MWh project on a BOOT model with a 12-year term.
