expected ROI of utility scale ESS project in India 2026

Are energy storage systems the backbone of India's utility-scale ESS auctions?

Standalone Energy Storage Systems (ESS) are becoming the backbone of India’s utility-scale ESS auctions, accounting for 64% of the total tenders issued between January and March alone, according to a new report by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) and JMK Research & Analytics.

What is the evolution of utility scale ESS tenders in India?

The evolution of Utility Scale ESS tenders in India highlights the increasing focus and efforts of all stakeholders. In the past five years, the ESS tenders have been evolving with innovative and new age tenders such as RTC, Peak Power and now standalone ESS.

How much ESS capacity does India have in ?

The report finds that various Indian agencies tendered 6.1 gigawatts (GW) of Standalone ESS capacity in the first three months of . “Standalone ESS are ideal to facilitate the rapid development and deployment of variable renewable energy (VRE) resources across India.

Which ESS tenders will increase Indian ESS capacity multifold?

The latest ESS tenders issued by Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) and NTPC are the first in India to combine standalone ESS with on-demand use. These two standalone ESS tenders, by SECI and NTPC, have a cumulative storage capacity of 1GW/4GWh. Thus, if executed well, these projects will augment Indian ESS capacity multifold.

Will grid-scale tendering help develop ESS in India?

As with renewable energy (solar/wind) development in India, grid-scale tendering will be crucial for developing the ESS market in India. However, at present, ESS technology is still nascent in India, because of which these standalone ESS tenders will likely face technical, procurement and regulatory challenges.

How Greenko is targeting ESS development in India?

Greenko is targeting ESS development in India through PHS. It is developing two Integrated Renewable Energy Storage Projects (IRESP) in Andhra Pradesh that will integrate GW-scale wind, solar and PHS. We summarise the major industry players operating in the ESS space below: Storage capacity of 150 MWh for 6 hours in peak power supply.
