Reliance Industries is negotiating with Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) and other global suppliers to source components for large-scale battery energy storage systems in Jamnagar, Gujarat.
This initiative supports India’s national target of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.
Previous negotiations for battery cell manufacturing technology transfer failed due to China’s tightened export controls on energy technologies.
Reliance is now focusing on packaging pre-made cells while diversifying its supplier base for energy storage projects.
