Other Strategic Perspectives

  • Companies should expand by broadening their manufacturing capacity as well as by utilizing investments to work with other global players on research and development that considers local needs.
  • As technology costs decline and battery deployments proliferate, existing niche markets will expand, opening new markets and value-streams for storage. To become a world-class manufacturing destination, India needs to have technology, quality, and scale. This is the right time for investment and building skilled manpower.
