Nash Energy Launches First Phase of 10 GWh Prismatic Battery Manufacturing in Bengaluru

Nash Energy has commissioned a 2 GWh fully automated prismatic battery pack manufacturing line at its state-of-the-art facility in Dobbaspet, Bengaluru.

Nash Energy informs us that the multi–form factor production line is capable of manufacturing battery packs ranging from 100 Ah to 314 Ah. It explained that this represents the first phase of the company's goal to establish 10 GWh battery pack manufacturing capacity over the next five years.

The newly commissioned automated battery pack line will primarily cater to the battery energy storage system (BESS), electric vehicle, material handling equipment, and electric bus and truck segments. 

Nash Energy Manufacture LFP Cells in India

Nash Energy is already one of the first company's to mass-manufacture LFP cells in India. Building on this foundation, and in addition to its existing R&D centre in Japan, the company is setting up a dedicated India Engineering Centre to further strengthen the country's fast-growing energy storage ecosystem.

Industry estimates further reinforce this opportunity. According to the India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA), BESS capacity additions in India are expected to increase nearly tenfold to approximately 5 GWh from 507 MWh. MarkNtel Advisors projects the Indian BESS market to reach USD 1.2 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 27 percent.

On this announcement, Sanjay Wadhwa, Chairman, Nash Energy said, "We are making long-term investments to build indigenous capabilities and make India self-sufficient in energy storage technologies," He added, "The country currently lacks adequate R&D depth in this domain, and our focus is on building a strong foundation that can support India's clean energy ambitions. As renewable energy becomes a larger part of the national grid, a robust energy storage ecosystem is not optional—it is essential.
