Synopsis: RDB Infrastructure and Power has partnered with Mecpower Solutions for a ₹348.64 crore solar EPC project in Rajasthan that also includes a 25 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). The project highlights how battery-linked renewable infrastructure is becoming the next major opportunity in India’s clean-energy expansion cycle.
India’s renewable energy sector is entering a new phase where adding solar capacity alone is no longer enough. As renewable penetration rises, battery storage is becoming increasingly important for grid stability, peak-hour balancing, and improving the reliability of solar power generation. This shift is gradually creating a new layer of opportunity for EPC and infrastructure companies capable of participating in integrated solar-plus-storage projects. Against this backdrop, this micro-cap company has agreed with Mecpower Solutions Limited for the execution of EPC works at Bikaner, Rajasthan.
With a market capitalisation of ₹571 crores, the shares of RDB Infrastructure and Power are trading at ₹27.2 apiece in today’s market session, up 3.26% from their previous day’s close of ₹26.3 apiece. However, the stock has corrected significantly and is down by 48.70% over the past year.
The Order Details
The company has entered into an MoU with Mecpower Solutions Private Limited for the execution of EPC works related to a 70 MW AC / 95 MW DC solar power project along with a 25 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at Bikaner, Rajasthan, with an estimated EPC value of approximately ₹348.64 crore. Both companies will participate in the project under a 50:50 profit-sharing arrangement, with RDB Infrastructure and Power Limited handling procurement and execution of the EPC work.
Why The Battery Storage Component Matters
The inclusion of a 25 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) makes the project strategically important beyond conventional solar EPC execution. Battery storage is gradually becoming one of the fastest-growing segments within India’s renewable energy ecosystem because rising solar capacity now requires storage support for grid stability, peak-hour balancing, and reliable power supply during non-generation periods.
This trend is especially relevant in Rajasthan, which has emerged as one of India’s largest renewable energy hubs due to high solar irradiation and availability of large land parcels for utility-scale projects. As the state continues attracting investments across solar parks, transmission infrastructure, and storage-linked renewable projects, EPC companies participating in integrated solar-plus-storage projects could gradually strengthen their execution positioning within India’s next phase of renewable infrastructure expansion.
Market Takeaway
India’s renewable energy opportunity is no longer limited to solar module installation and capacity addition. The next phase of the sector is increasingly shifting toward storage-backed renewable infrastructure, where battery integration becomes critical for grid reliability and power management.
For RDB Infrastructure, the Rajasthan project potentially improves visibility in a higher-value segment of renewable EPC execution at a time when utility-scale solar and storage investments are accelerating rapidly. If the company continues winning similar projects, battery-linked infrastructure could gradually emerge as an important growth driver alongside its traditional EPC business.
