Gujarat battery storage capacity expansion

Entities: Mecpower Solutions Ltd · Setul Shah · India · Karjan · Government of Gujarat

Overview

In mid‑July 2026 Waaree Energy Storage Solutions launched a new battery‑energy‑storage‑system (BESS) container plant in Rola, Gujarat, with an initial annual output of 5.15 GWh, exceeding its original target and forming the first step of a 20 GWh manufacturing roadmap that includes later‑year lithium‑cell and pack production.

Two weeks later, Mecpower Solutions Ltd signed a memorandum of understanding with the Gujarat government to build another BESS assembly facility at Karjan, slated for a 5 GWh capacity and an investment of about INR 160 crore. The new plant is intended to reinforce India’s domestic large‑scale storage manufacturing and support the country’s renewable‑energy growth and grid‑stability objectives.
