ACME Solar places 3.1 GWh battery energy storage order from Zhejiang Narada and Trina Energy

New Delhi: ACME Solar Holdings on Monday said it has placed an order for more than 3.1 GWh of BESS to procure high-efficiency and scalable storage solutions from Zhejiang Narada and Trina Energy.

This marks one of the largest battery storage procurements in India to date and will support the deployment of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) across ACME Solar’s multiple renewable energy FDRE (Firm & Dispatchable Renewable Energy) and battery-linked projects, scheduled for commissioning over the next 12-18 months across multiple states in India, a company statement said.

The delivery is planned in a phased manner over the next four to eight months of the current fiscal year. Importantly, the order value of these systems is well within the budgeted cost, enabling overall capex efficiency while maintaining focus on technical performance and supplier reliability.

Moreover, the early procurement of these systems would accelerate execution timelines and enable timely revenue realisation.

The advanced BESS equipment conforms to global standards, including IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) and UL (Underwriters Laboratories), ensuring best-in-class safety, performance and reliability.

This significant order underscores ACME Solar’s commitment to accelerating clean energy adoption and enhancing grid stability in one of India’s fastest-growing renewable energy regions.

ACME Solar Holdings is a leading integrated renewable energy player with a diversified portfolio of 6,970 MW and 550 MWh spanning solar, wind, storage, FDRE and hybrid solutions.

The operational capacity of ACME Solar stands at 2,890 MW, with another 4,080 MW at various stages of implementation.

With an in-house EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) and O&M division, the company undertakes end-to-end development and O&M (Operations and Maintenance) of plants, thereby delivering projects in a time and cost-effective manner while ensuring best-in-class operating performance evident in its industry-leading CUF (Capacity Utilisation Factor) and operating margins.
