A Blueprint for Urban Energy Resilience Kilokari BESS Private Limited (KBPL) Overview The Kilokari BESS Private Limited (KBPL) project stands as a landmark in India’s energy transition, representing the nation’s first regulatory-approved, commercial grid-scale Battery Energy Storage System. While many storage projects exist in pilot phases or remote renewable hubs, KBPL is unique for its successful integration into one of the world’s most complex and densely populated urban environments: South Delhi. Project Profile Project Name: BSES Rajdhani Power Limited Commissioning Date: 30th March 2025 Project Location: Kilokri Substation, Delhi Project Size (in MWs): 21 Regulatory and Financial Innovation KBPL broke new ground by becoming the first project of its type to receive formal approval from the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC). Developed under a Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer (BOOT) model with a 12-year Battery Energy Storage Service Agreement (BESSA), it demonstrates a viable commercial framework for urban discoms. The project’s success was further bolstered by a unique collaborative ecosystem, involving IndiGrid, AmpereHour Energy, and BRPL, supported by concessional funding from the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP). Technical Excellence and Grid Integration Executing a 20 MW / 40 MWh utility-scale project within a legacy substation in a congested metropolitan area presented extreme logistical hurdles. Despite these challenges, the team achieved commissioning in a record 11 months—ahead of schedule. The system utilizes AmpereHour’s proprietary AI-driven ELINA Energy Management Software, which allows for sophisticated energy arbitrage and real-time management of grid-specific issues like voltage dips and peak load spikes. Social and Environmental Impact Beyond technical metrics, the project serves a critical social function. By providing four hours of clean backup power daily, it directly enhances energy security for 100,000 residents and vital infrastructure, including Moolchand and Safdarjung hospitals. It effectively displaces fossil-fuel-based peaking power and reduces reliance on diesel generators, proving that BESS is not just a grid tool, but a tool for public health and urban sustainability. KBPL is a “first-of-its-kind” proof of concept that battery storage can defer massive capital expenditure in urban infrastructure while accelerating the transition to a carbon-neutral grid.

Gujarat BESS Private Limited (GBPL)India’s Largest Transmission-Connected Storage
India’s Flagship Standalone Battery Storage Project Gujarat Energy Transmission Corporation substation in Gujarat. Overview The landscape of the Indian energy sector just shifted. In a monumental milestone for clean energy, AmpereHour Energy and IndiGrid have officially commissioned a massive 180 MW / 360 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at the GETCO substation in Charal, Sanand Industrial Area, Gujarat. Officially named Gujarat BESS Private Limited (GBPL), this project isn’t just India’s largest standalone utility-scale battery installation-it stands proud as one of the largest BESS capacities in all of Asia. With Gujarat Urja Vikas Nigam Limited (GUVNL) as the off-taker, GBPL serves as a replicable blueprint for the 10 GWh of transmission-connected BESS capacity expected to roll out across India. Here is a look behind the scenes at how this “lighthouse” project is redefining grid stability and paving the way for a 24/7 renewable energy future. Project Profile Project Name: Gujarat BESS Private Limited (GBPL)Project Location: GETCO Substation, Charal, Sanand Industrial Area, GujaratTotal Project Size: 180 MW / 360 MWhDeveloper: IndiGridTechnology Partner: AmpereHour Energy The Scale of the Innovation Building one of Asia’s largest standalone BESS facilities was nothing short of a mammoth task. To pull it off, the team at AmpereHour Energy had to scale up learnings from their previous 40 MWh project in Delhi into a massive 360 MWh reality. Strategically collocated at a Gujarat Energy Transmission Corporation (GETCO) substation, the project is classified as an integral part of the transmission system. How It Works: True Operational Flexibility The BESS facility acts like an intelligent green shock absorber for the electrical grid. Energy Shifting: It stores surplus solar and wind power during off-peak hours and discharges it during morning and evening peaks, ensuring grid stability. On-Demand Usage: The system is engineered for maximum flexibility, allowing GUVNL to cycle the battery twice daily to manage intense peak load spikes. Engineered for Longevity: Despite this high utilization, AmpereHour’s system is engineered to maintain an optimal battery lifespan over its 12-year contract period. Engineering with a “First Time Right” Principle Meeting GUVNL’s stringent grid requirements demanded precision engineering. AmpereHour’s R&D and engineering teams conducted advanced simulation studies to optimize the entire electrical chain—from the massive 220 kV grid connection all the way down to the DC systems. This meticulous planning ensured maximum usable energy and high Round Trip Efficiency (RTE). The flawless, “one-go” commissioning was powered by deep tech: ELINA EMS: AmpereHour’s proprietary Energy Management System integrated massive, complex data streams in real time. AH Suite: A software platform that maintained high-quality execution and collaboration across multiple contractors. Flexible Integration Architecture: An intelligent, hardware-agnostic technology layer that allowed IndiGrid to deploy a technically superior and commercially optimized system. Social, Strategic, and Environmental Impact Gujarat has firmly established itself as a frontrunner in the green energy transition, launching a collective 870 MW of battery storage projects statewide. Within this ambitious ecosystem, GBPL delivers impact on multiple fronts: Renewable Integration: Directly supports Gujarat’s goal of 100 GW of renewable capacity by 2030 by bridging the gap of intermittent green energy sources. Energy Security: Reduces dependency on fossil-fuel-based peaking plants, actively lowering the carbon footprint for the state’s industrial hubs. Market Leadership: Positions the IndiGrid and AmpereHour Energy partnership as a first-mover in the large-scale standalone storage market. Regulatory and Financial Innovation GBPL isn’t just a win for engineering; it’s a triumph of commercial design. The project was awarded to IndiGrid in March 2024 through a transparent Tariff-Based Competitive Bidding (TBCB) process conducted by GUVNL. Developed on a Build, Own, and Operate (BOO) basis, the project features a 12-year Battery Energy Storage Service Agreement (BESSA). Financial Breakdown: Tariff Structure: A fixed capacity charge of ₹449,996 per MW per month, translating to an annual tariff of over ₹97 crore. Global Backing: Supported by $55 million in long-term financing from the International Finance Corporation (IFC), which includes concessional funding from the Clean Technology Fund (CTF). Looking Ahead: The 500 GW Vision As the project developer, IndiGrid has set an entirely new benchmark for utility-scale storage infrastructure in India. This project does more than just balance today’s grid—it paves the way for the nation’s grander green goals. As the world watches the transition to clean energy, projects like GBPL prove that with the right combination of global financing, intelligent software, and bold engineering, a 100% renewable grid is actively being built.
