India’s renewable energy momentum continues as ACME Solar commissions Phase III of its BESS project in Rajasthan, expanding its battery storage capacity.
✨ AI Powered Summary
India continues to see strong momentum in renewable energy. In the nine months ending 2025-26, the country added 30 gigawatt of Solar and 4.5 gigawatt of wind capacity. This takes the cumulative renewable energy capacity to 258 gigawatt.
Power demand also rebounded sharply in December 2025. Energy demand reached 138 billion units, a 7 per cent year-on-year increase. Earlier, from April to November 2025, demand was flat due to an early monsoon. According to market experts, the demand revival is expected to continue. This is likely to result in increased PPA signing.
In line with this growth, ACME Solar Holdings Ltd (ASHL), through its wholly owned subsidiary ACME Surya Power Private Ltd, has commissioned the third phase of its Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project in Rajasthan. The project is located at Village Jaimalsar, Dist: Bikaner.
Phase III adds 11.429 MW / 51.354 MWh to the BESS project. The commercial operation date (COD) for this phase is March 31, 2026. With this, ACME Surya Power Pvt Ltd has commissioned a total of 107.143 MW / 481.440 MWh out of the total planned 250 MW / 1103.392 MWh.
Incorporated in 2015, ACME Solar Holdings Ltd is one of the leading renewable energy companies in India. ACME Solar operates across multiple renewable technologies. These include solar, wind, hybrid energy systems, and FDRE, which provides firm, on-demand power using energy storage solutions. The company’s projects are spread across 10 Indian states.
