Pastiche Energy Solutions, a manufacturer of electric vehicle (EV) battery technology, has unveiled a lithium-ion battery manufacturing facility with an initial production capacity of 1.5 GWh. The plant is equipped with automatic laser welding lines and high-power testing systems to support the production of large-capacity batteries for EVs and battery energy storage systems (BESS).

The new facility marks the company’s expansion in battery manufacturing and aligns with broader trends in India’s energy sector. Domestic production of advanced cell chemistries is being supported by government schemes such as the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) for Advanced Chemistry Cells and FAME II, which offer incentives including import duty exemptions for select raw materials and capital equipment.

Founded in 2015, Pastiche Energy Solutions is led by founder and managing director Rahil Gupta. The company has indicated plans to expand its collaborations in the battery and energy storage industry.

The launch comes as major Indian industrial groups, including the Tata Group and Amara Raja, are investing in large-scale battery manufacturing facilities with planned capacities ranging from 2 GWh to 20 GWh. While Pastiche’s 1.5 GWh facility is smaller in comparison, it adds to the growing decentralized battery manufacturing ecosystem in India.

Pastiche Energy Solutions focuses on lithium battery technologies, EV charging infrastructure, and battery swapping solutions. The company is working to scale up its production capabilities to address demand across mobility and renewable energy storage markets.
