Representational image. Credit: Canva The country’s first commercially-approved standalone Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is set to become operational soon at Kilokri, South Delhi, according to a statement by power distribution company BSES on Monday.
India’s first commercial standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) project with a 20MW/40MWh capacity at the distribution company level and a tariff approved by the electricity regulatory authority has been commissioned by power sector infrastructure investment trust IndiGrid in Delhi.
AmpereHour Energy, a full-stack energy storage solutions provider, in consortium with Indigrid, has commissioned BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd’s (BRPL) 20 MW/40 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) project at the BSES Rajdhani Kilokari Substation in Delhi.
Minister Sood called the project a “historic milestone” for both Delhi and India’s energy sector, setting a new benchmark in regulatory and technological progress. Developed with support from IndiGrid, GEAPP, and TERI, the system is described as South Asia’s largest standalone battery-inverter power setup.
The project, inaugurated by Delhi Power Minister Ashish Sood, is hailed as India’s first commercially approved utility-scale energy storage installation. Installed at the
The government intends to replicate this model across Delhi to eliminate power outages, particularly during peak demand periods. The advanced energy storage system brings several benefits, including improved grid reliability, better power purchase efficiency, and seamless integration with renewable energy sources.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
