The alliance, including India, aims to secure 5 GW of battery energy storage by 2024, aligning with the long-term goal of developing 90 GW of storage capacity worldwide. However, beyond celebrating this achievement lies a broader recognition of the crucial role batteries play in driving clean energy transitions worldwide.
