High Energy Batteries (India) Ltd is strategically expanding its product range to include fuel cells and flow batteries, particularly emphasizing Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries and hydrogen-based solutions for power generation and bulk energy storage applications in India. The company's Chairman, N Gopalaratnam, highlighted the focus on value-added products like battery and power pack system integration to enhance its market position in both defense and non-defense sectors. Through collaborations with IIT-Madras and ONGC Energy Centre Trust, High Energy Batteries has successfully developed a 10kW/100kWh VRFB storage system integrated with solar PV, aimed at charging electric two or three-wheelers continuously through a 24/7 charging station application. The company's R&D efforts also extend to fuel cells for in-situ power generation using hydrogen and long-duration energy storage, contributing to more than 10 hours of uninterrupted power through flow battery systems. Financially, the company reported revenue of ₹77 crore in FY24, with a profit-after-tax of ₹17 crore, showcasing its financial stability despite a slight decrease compared to the previous year. High Energy Batteries aims to continue its expansion into hydrogen-based technologies, addressing technical challenges in material availability, component indigenization, and cost-effectiveness over the next two years. This strategic move aligns with the company's vision for growth and innovation in the energy and power systems sector, leveraging its expertise in developing batteries for critical platforms like torpedoes, fighter aircraft, and UAVs.
