India’s Luminous Power inaugurates 500 MWh lithium-ion battery assembly line

Luminous Power Technologies has inaugurated its first lithium-ion battery assembly line at Baddi, Himachal Pradesh. This new line has a production capacity of 500 MWh per year.

The assembly line is designed to produce standalone lithium-ion battery packs, stationary battery energy storage systems (BESS), and automotive battery packs for e-rickshaw applications. It  supports battery capacities ranging from 1.2 kWh to 16 kWh for single packs, with system-level scalability of up to 1 MWh, enabling diverse use cases across residential, commercial & industrial, and electric mobility segments.

The line integrates advanced robotic automation with precision-led manufacturing processes to ensure high standards of quality, safety, and performance across lithium-ion battery packs, according to the company. It also features end-to-end digital traceability of every battery pack, aligned with the latest Battery Aadhaar requirements, enabling complete lifecycle tracking and strengthening regulatory compliance, transparency, and consumer confidence.

“Beyond manufacturing excellence, the lithium-ion assembly line contributes meaningfully to Luminous’ sustainability objectives. The new Assembly line will play a critical enabling role by supporting renewable energy storage, reducing carbon emissions through EV and grid applications, improving manufacturing efficiency through automation, and supporting circular economy practices through recycling and reuse of battery components,” stated Luminous.
