National Advanced Chemical cell battery storage program

Union Cabinet has approved Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme 'National Programme on Advanced Chemistry Cell (ACC) Battery Storage '

Under this scheme, it is targeted to achieve the manufacturing capacity of Fifty (50) Giga Watt Hour (GWh) of ACC and 5 GWh of "Niche" ACC

The scheme was proposed by the Department of Heavy Industry and it costs Rs 18,100 crore

ACCs are the new generation of advanced storage technologies that can store electric energy either as electrochemical or as chemical energy and convert it back to electric
energy
as and when required

Consumer electronics, electric vehicles, advanced electricity grids, solar rooftop etc which are major battery consuming sectors are expected to achieve growth in the coming years

It is expected that the dominant battery technologies will control some of the world's largest growth sectors

GW hours means producing one billion watts of energy per hour in an hour
