GoodEnough Energy, India's first manufacturer of battery energy storage systems, will start operations at India's first battery energy storage gigafactory in the northern region of Jammu and Kashmir by October.

• The facility will help industry in cutting more than 5 million tons of carbon emissions in a year, GoodEnough said in a statement. India has set a 2070 goal for becoming net zero.
• GoodEnough has already spent 1.5 billion rupees ($18.07 million) on the 7 gigawatts per hour (GWH) facility and will spend 3 billion rupees by 2027 to raise capacity to 20 GWH, said its founder Akash Kaushik.
• India's government is offering $452 million in incentives to companies under a programme to promote battery storage projects.
• Such systems enable the storage of energy from solar, wind and other renewable sources so it can be released when needed.
