Need for Advanced Chemistry Cell Energy Storage in India

This report provides a technical review of advanced chemistry cell (ACC) battery technologies and the potential for domestic manufacturing in India to support electricity and transportation decarbonization.

• India has implemented a $2.5 billion Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for advanced cell chemistry (ACC) battery storage to encourage domestic manufacturing and reduce reliance on imports.
• Domestic manufacturing of common nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry cells could allow India to capture between 40 and 90 percent of the total cell value internally, benefiting the grid-scale energy storage and e-mobility sectors.
• India is positioned to build a battery manufacturing ecosystem using new technologies that utilize indigenous materials such as aluminium and sodium.
