JSW Energy has commenced the construction of its Battery Energy Storage Project (BESS) in India, emphasizing the company's commitment to renewable energy integration and grid stability. The 1.0 GWh project, awarded by SECI, will have two installations with a 500 MWh storage capacity each, set to operate under a BOOT mechanism. Alongside BESS, JSW Energy is making strides in green hydrogen, with a commercial-scale project and supply agreements with JSW Steel Ltd. These initiatives reflect the company's dedication to sustainable energy solutions. JSW Energy's future goals include reaching a generation capacity of 20 GW and an energy storage capacity of 40 GWh by 2030, with a vision of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Aligning with India's 'Panchamrit' pledge at COP26, JSW Energy's projects support the country's targets for non-fossil electricity capacity, renewable energy generation, emission reduction, and net-zero emissions by 2070. JSW Energy's endeavors in energy storage and green hydrogen are pivotal in driving India's transition towards a more sustainable and resilient energy landscape.
