From connected plants to intelligent industry: India’s next digital transformation
The real opportunity lies in combining India’s engineering depth with its growing digital capabilities. The factories and energy systems of the future will not necessarily be those with the largest number of sensors, the most sophisticated dashboards or the greatest volume of data. They will be the ones that can sense earlier, understand faster and act with greater precision.
How India is pioneering a sustainable, self-reliant EV battery ecosystem
India’s battery industry is still taking shape, and it will rely on others for several raw materials for some time. What has changed is that manufacturing, renewable power, new chemistries and recycling are now being planned as parts of one system. If cell plants come online on time and run on clean power, and recycling targets are enforced, India can cut its import bill and give local makers more control over how batteries are sourced, made and recovered.

Beyond Gigawatts: Why India’s clean energy future depends on storage intelligence
The battery creates flexibility. The intelligence behind it determines how much of that flexibility the grid can harness. The next clean energy benchmark for India, therefore, might not just be a new number of gigawatts. It might be the ability to get the maximum out of every gigawatt.
PM Surya Ghar crosses 60-lakh mark, 2.5 lakh workers trained as rooftop solar drive accelerates
India’s rooftop solar drive has crossed a major milestone, with the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana crossing the 60 lakh household mark recently, taking the flagship residential solar programme to 60 per cent of the Union government’s target of powering one crore homes.

India’s energy security challenge is no longer about supply, it’s about resilience
As renewable energy capacity grows, variability becomes more important. Storage, flexible generation, stronger transmission networks and responsive grid controls will increasingly determine how reliably power can be delivered while grid stability is maintained.
Sodium-ion batteries: the next frontier or the next risk?
While sodium-ion offers a compelling long-term solution to flattening LFP cost curves and tight supply chains, its lack of field-validated performance data transfers significant technology and bankability risks directly onto developer balance sheets.
