The ₹400 Crore Bet on India's Energy Storage Future

Energy storage solutions provider Pure has announced a ₹400 crore investment over the next 18–36 months to scale its battery production, enhance power electronics, and boost in-house firmware development. This strategic expansion will increase its manufacturing capacity from 250 MWh to 2.5 GWh, a tenfold rise, and builds on the ₹100 crore already invested in R&D and infrastructure. The funding will be a mix of equity and debt, according to Founder and MD Nishanth Dongari.

As part of this growth, Pure introduced its flagship PuREPower Grid—a 5 MWh grid-scale energy storage system designed to stabilize power grids and integrate renewable energy sources. The system features high energy density batteries, fifth-gen power electronics, predictive AI, cloud monitoring, and a multi-tier cooling system including nano-PCM, liquid cooling, and rack-level thermal management for enhanced safety and longevity.

Incubated at i-TIC, IIT Hyderabad, Pure has filed over 120 patents and serves more than 80,000 customers through 80+ dealerships nationwide. The Delhi launch of PuREPower Grid focuses on solar and wind energy projects, commercial setups, and EV fast-charging corridors—highlighting Pure’s role in advancing clean energy infrastructure.
