TDK Corporation, a global maker of electronics and batteries, wants to spend about ₹4,000 crore in Haryana to build a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) unit. During the Bharat Electricity Summit 2026, a company delegation met with Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini to talk about the proposal. Manohar Lal Khattar, the Union Minister for Power, Housing, and Urban Affairs, was also there.
Planned Investment in Energy Storage
The delegation said during the meeting that it “intends to invest about ₹4,000 crore in Haryana to build a new plant.” The proposed facility will focus on Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), which are becoming more and more important for making sure that power is always available and for managing renewable energy.
Strong Existing Presence in Sohna
TDK already operates a lithium-ion battery manufacturing plant in Sohna, Haryana. The facility, spread across 180 acres, produces batteries for a range of applications including mobile phones, wearables, watches, and laptops. This existing presence strengthens the company’s expansion plans in the state.
Expansion into Medium-Capacity Batteries
The company, which holds a significant share in the global small rechargeable battery market, is now focusing on new growth areas.
It noted that “there is a new growth opportunity in medium-sized rechargeable batteries for power storage systems.”
As part of its long-term strategy, TDK plans to “respond to rising demand for high-performance batteries driven by the expansion of the AI device market.” It also aims to “expand its medium-capacity battery business for data centers,” reflecting increasing demand for reliable energy storage in digital infrastructure.
Haryana Emerging as Investment Hub
The proposed investment shows that Haryana is becoming more and more attractive to global investors in clean energy and high-tech manufacturing. The state keeps attracting big international companies that want to grow in India’s fast-growing energy sector because of its supportive policies and existing industrial infrastructure.
