ACME Group will supply 75,000 metric tonnes of green ammonia for a period of ten years to Paradeep Phosphates Ltd, one of India’s largest chemicals and fertilizer companies, at their facility in Paradeep, Odisha.

A recent report by SBICAPS projects that India will add 30 GW of energy storage capacity (battery storage, pumped storage, etc) through standalone and firm and dispatchable renewable energy (FDRE) projects by June 2027. This would bring the country’s total storage capacity to 36 GW—far exceeding the projected demand of around 24 GW, and possibly leading to oversupply.

Independent power producers have captured a significant share of India’s clean energy capital, with projects often backed by substantial financing from institutions like the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (IREDA).
