India added 48.4 MWh of energy storage capacity in the first half (1H) of 2025, a 74% decline from 186 MWh added in the same period last year, according to the newly released India’s Energy Storage Landscape 1H 2025 Report by Mercom India Research. India’s cumulative installed energy storage capacity reached 490 MWh by the end of June 2025. Solar-plus-storage systems accounted for nearly 56% of India’s cumulative installed capacity. This was followed by more than 32% from solar-plus-wind projects with round-the-clock capability, and over 12% from standalone battery energy storage systems. The remaining share came from floating solar with storage, and solar-plus-wind projects with storage capabilities.
