Letter of Award (LOA) for these projects were awarded on 8th July, 2025. The quick transition from LOA into signing of the BESPA can be attributed to the prior identification of customer as Andhra Pradesh. As the Standalone BESS installation will be established at the customer site wherein land and evacuation infrastructure will be provided by the customer, it should expedite the execution of these projects. These projects are one-of-its-kind projects being developed in Andhra Pradesh and are expected to be commissioned within 18 months from signing of the BESPA.
These solutions support the grid stability by absorbing power during off-peak hours and release power during peak demand hour in a day. BESS is expected to improve the grid integration of renewable sources like solar and wind, which are inherently variable in nature. These projects mark a significant milestone in the Indian energy sector, introducing a pioneering model where capacity charges are payable under the “BESS as a service” framework. The addition of Standalone BESS helps ACME Solar to leverage on advantages of large scale battery procurement and installation in its portfolio.
