GoodEnough Energy has commissioned what it calls, the largest utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) manufacturing facility in India, a 7 gigawatt-hour (GWh) gigafactory in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. As with many other renewable and storage projects in India, GoodEnough’s  largest utility-scale BESS project marks an important milestone in the country’s clean energy transition. This ambitious project also aims builds on India’s domestic storage manufacturing capacity to support its rapidly expanding renewable capacity.

Noida BESS Gigafactory in India Commissioned and Operational

The Noida Gigafactory, developed by GoodEnough Energy – a company founded in 2023 –  represents a major expansion of India’s battery storage manufacturing landscape. With an initial production capacity of 7 GWh, the plant is now operational – as of January 2026. This follows an investment exceeding Rs 450 crore (about US$49 million). GoodEnough has also stated its intention to scale the facility to 25 GWh of annual BESS production over the next three years. This is pushed by increasing market demand and the need for domestic storage technology. GoodEnough also reports encouraging adoption interest across industrial and commercial segments nationwide as it rolls out BESS installations.

Noida BESS Gigafactory and Renewable Energy Landscape in India

India’s push toward a 500 GW non-fossil power capacity target by 2030 hinges not just on deploying solar and wind generation, but also on grid-scale energy storage. BESS is a technology essential to balancing variability and ensuring reliability in power grids.

Long dependent on imported battery systems, predominantly from China, India has been growing its capacity through policy incentives and domestic investment. This includes Production Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes that subsidise up to 40 percent of capital costs for local battery manufacturing. Solar manufacturing also benefits from PLI as seen with Waaree Energies’ 5.4 GW PV cell gigafactory in Gujarat.

The commissioning of India’s largest BESS gigafactory within three years of GoodEnough’s founding also shows how private companies are pushing for national goals to reduce import reliance. This is also while laying the groundwork for a competitive battery technology ecosystem in the country. Other privately held companies like ChemVolt are also at the forefront on this, as the energy developer advances its plans to build a lithium-ion battery gigafactory in the state of Andhra Pradesh.
