Explained: The innovative role of battery startups in India’s transition to renewable energy

By Pankaj Sharma

One of the most critical challenges facing the world today is the transition to renewable energy sources. As concerns about climate change grow, countries and companies alike are setting ambitious targets for net-zero emissions, with renewables at the centre of their strategies. While renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, holds immense promise for a sustainable future, its inherent intermittency presents a significant obstacle to its widespread adoption. To address this challenge, energy storage, particularly in advanced batteries, emerges as a key enabler for the integration of renewables into our energy systems.
