Energy Storage & Grid Resilience India Summit 2026

India's power sector is undergoing a once-in-a-generation transformation. With ambitious renewable energy targets, rapidly growing electricity demand, and the need for climate-ready infrastructure, the nation stands at a decisive moment. India's Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) market is set for remarkable expansion, driven by its bold renewable energy ambitions and an urgent need to enhance grid stability. With a national goal of installing 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030, and an existing renewable capacity of 235.7 GW as of June 2025, energy storage has become a strategic necessity.

As renewable integration deepens, ensuring reliable grid resilience and efficient energy management takes center stage. Energy storage is no longer a supporting technology; it is fundamental to the energy transition. Under the Ministry of Power, Energy Storage Obligation (ESO) along with Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO), together create a strong policy framework for India's clean energy transition by integrating renewable energy and energy storage systems to manage its intermittency.

India is rapidly emerging as one of the world's most promising markets for energy storage, and the Energy Storage & Grid Resilience India Summit will serve as a premier platform to address deployment challenges and catalyze large-scale project execution and explore investment prospects. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with a broad spectrum of stakeholders including independent power producers, utilities, investors, regulators, EPC firms, consultants, and technology providers.

The focus of 'Energy storage & grid resilience India summit' is to highlight case studies from successful project leaders, connecting decision makers across the value chain, and forge strategic partnerships to strengthen your energy portfolio.
