Sungrow and Tata Power Help India’s Photovoltaic Projects with a BESS Project in Ladakh

Sungrow and Tata Power Solar Systems Limited are working together on a new energy storage project in northern India. The two companies are building a BESS project in Ladakh, located in Phyang, Leh, UT of Ladakh. The battery energy storage system has a capacity of about 60.56 MWh, and is designed to work together with local photovoltaic projects and the regional grid.

The site is not a typical location. Phyang is around 3,400 meters above sea level, and winter temperatures can be very low. In this kind of environment, equipment has to be installed efficiently and then run reliably for many years. To deal with these conditions, Sungrow is supplying a full set of PV plus ESS solutions. The package includes the SC2500UD PCS, the ST2752UX liquid-cooled energy storage system, and matching flexible solar applications that support peak power management and grid stability.

This Phyang Leh energy storage project is one of the larger ESS projects tendered by SECI (Solar Energy Corporation of India) in recent years. For Sungrow, it is another example that its solutions, services and technologies can handle complex sites and help India’s photovoltaic projects operate in more demanding regions. For Sungrow and Tata Power, this cooperation also opens the door to more project types in the Indian renewable energy market, not only in Ladakh but also in other areas with challenging climates.

Up to now, Sungrow has shipped around 13 GW of inverters to the Indian market. The company also runs a 10 GW manufacturing facility in Bengaluru, which supports local delivery and service. With this background, it is natural for Sungrow and Tata Power Solar Systems Limited to continue working together on PV plus ESS solutions. In the future, both sides plan to explore more ways to provide clean electricity, improve peak power management, and support the broader energy transition across India.
