• Indigenous LFP-powered storage spanning residential, commercial, industrial and utility-scale applications
  • India’s only operating Gigafactory, indigenous LFP cells, and nationwide network to deliver reliable, affordable energy storage.
  • Announces entry into commercial and infrastructure energy with Shakti Rack, and industrial and utility-scale energy with Mahashakti.
  • Home energy storage solution Shakti Gen2 reservations open with deliveries from November 2026

Mumbai, India: On India’s 80th Independence Day, Ola Electric unveiled an ambitious expansion of its Shakti energy storage portfolio-designed to store energy when it is available and deploy it when it is needed-from keeping a home powered through an outage to managing renewable energy at grid scale.

Built around indigenous LFP battery technology and the company’s vertically integrated cell-to-system capabilities, Ola Shakti creates a single architecture across three markets: home energy with Shakti Gen2, commercial and infrastructure energy with Shakti Rack, and industrial and utility-scale energy with Mahashakti.

“The use cases of our world-class battery and cell technology will manifest beyond electric mobility,” said Bhavish Aggarwal, Chairman and Managing Director, Ola Electric. “Ola Shakti extends that innovation across every scale-from the home to the grid-helping India store and use clean energy intelligently. It is the natural next step as we leverage our Gigafactory, indigenous LFP cells, and nationwide network to deliver reliable, affordable energy storage without incremental capital intensity.”

Shakti Gen2 serves as the residential entry point, combining battery backup, intelligent energy management and solar storage in one system. The 4.6 kWh model carries an introductory price of ₹99,999 and the 9.2 kWh model ₹1,74,999. Both can be reserved for ₹999, with deliveries scheduled to begin in November 2026.For businesses, Shakti AC Rack and Shakti DC Rack extend the same storage architecture into commercial applications. The AC Rack integrates battery and inverter into a single system; the DC Rack interfaces directly with compatible DC infrastructure. Both are modular and scheduled for availability from March 2027.

At the top of the portfolio, Mahashakti moves Ola Shakti into industrial and grid-scale storage. Mahashakti Rack addresses large commercial and industrial loads, while the 6.26 MWh Mahashakti container is designed for utility-scale projects. The architecture can scale from a single container to GWh-scale energy storage plants.

India faces a significant energy storage opportunity. Central Electricity Authority estimates and industry projections indicate the country will require hundreds of GWh of storage capacity by the early 2030s to support renewable integration, grid reliability and the national goal of 500 GW non-fossil capacity. Ola Electric has already signed an MoU with Axis Energy for the potential deployment of up to 20 GWh of battery energy storage systems by 2032 under the Mahashakti platform-described by the company as one of the largest announced domestic deployments of indigenous battery storage technology.

Ola Shakti leverages the company’s Krishnagiri Gigafactory, indigenous LFP cell technology (all energy storage products will use LFP), and existing distribution reach. The company has positioned the portfolio as a cell-to-pack vertically integrated offering, aiming to deliver advantages in safety, supply-chain security and total cost of ownership.
