Reliance Industries Limited is targeting the start of commercial-scale production at its battery giga-factory around July, while simultaneously increasing its planned annual manufacturing capacity to 40 gigawatt hours (GWh) of lithium iron phosphate (LFP)-based batteries from the earlier 30 GWh target, according to the company’s latest annual report. In its FY26 annual report, RIL said its Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) giga-factory has entered an “advanced commissioning” stage. “With civil construction complete and equipment installation underway, production will ramp through the second half of 2026, focused on LFP chemistry for utility-scale BESS and mobility,” the company said.
