Indian battery manufacturer Delectrick Systems has launched a new 10MWh vanadium flow battery-based energy storage system (ESS) to support large-scale and utility-scale projects.
The 2MW/10MWh 5-hour duration system aims to support large-scale developers by granting a product that provides around 200MWh per acre. Delectrick confirmed that the first MWh-scale installation based on this product architecture will be deployed in India in the first half of 2025.
Vishal Mittal, Delectrik’s founder and CEO, added that the company is eyeing up various international markets, with hopes to establish manufacturing and assembly hubs in key regions to serve the local market.
“As volumes grow the company will look to establish manufacturing/assembly hubs in key regions to serve the local market. With this intent we have established our first overseas subsidiary company in Australia,” Mittal said.

“We want to make sure just like we are ‘Making in India‘ for India, we can do the same in key markets globally. In addition to continue expanding in these markets the company will lay a greater emphasis on scaling the domestic Indian market especially based on its large-scale flow battery solution.”
Delectrik, founded in 2016, manufactures its vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) from its facility in India with three different products. Its VRFBs are designed for residential, commercial and industrial (C&I) and grid-scale sectors.
Last year, Delectrik signed an agreement with Riyadh-based Tdafoq Energy that would see the latter distribute Delectrick’s VRFBs in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) markets and set up a manufacturing facility in Saudi Arabia.
This sees Tdafoq exclusively sell the Delectrick’s VRFBs in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and UAE. The six countries make up the GCC.
