Ola Electric has unveiled its Shakti energy storage portfolio, comprising products for residential, commercial, industrial and utility-scale applications. The portfolio is built around lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery technology and spans home backup and solar storage through to grid-scale energy storage.
The portfolio includes Shakti Gen2 for residential applications, Shakti Rack for commercial establishments and infrastructure, and Mahashakti for commercial, industrial and utility-scale applications. Ola Electric said the products use its vertically integrated cell-to-system architecture.
“The use cases of our world-class battery and cell technology will manifest beyond electric mobility,” said Bhavish Aggarwal, chairman and managing director, Ola Electric. “Ola Shakti extends that innovation across every scale — from the home to the grid — helping India store and use clean energy intelligently.”
Ola Shakti Gen2 Targets Residential Energy Storage
Shakti Gen2 is the residential product in the portfolio, combining battery backup, energy management and solar energy storage. It is offered in 4.6kWh/3kW and 9.2kWh/6kW configurations, with around 1.5 hours of backup at full load.
The system also supports energy monitoring through the Ola Shakti app and solar charging through an MPPT system. The 4.6kWh version is priced at ₹99,999, while the 9.2kWh version is priced at ₹1,74,999. Reservations are open at ₹999, with deliveries targeted to begin in November 2026.
Ola Electric has also introduced a Shakti Solar Charge Controller for homes with solar installations. The standalone MPPT system is available in 3kW and 6kW configurations and is designed to integrate with Shakti.
Shakti Rack Expands into Commercial and Infrastructure Storage
The Shakti Rack range comprises AC and DC variants for commercial and infrastructure applications. The Shakti AC Rack has a 73kWh capacity, an 18–50kW inverter and a 415V three-phase AC architecture with an integrated inverter. Its stated applications include facility backup, peak shaving and energy optimisation.
The Shakti DC Rack is intended for telecom and DC infrastructure. It offers 38–77kWh per rack, operates at 48V DC and uses an air-cooled LFP architecture. The system is designed for direct DC power, critical infrastructure backup and modular capacity expansion.
Both Shakti Rack variants are scheduled to become available from March 2027.
Mahashakti Targets Industrial and Utility-Scale Storage
Mahashakti extends the portfolio into larger commercial, industrial and utility-scale applications. The Mahashakti Rack has a 257kWh capacity and 125kW output, with an integrated power conversion system, 415V three-phase AC architecture and liquid cooling.
Ola Electric lists manufacturing facilities, commercial buildings, warehouses, retail and digital infrastructure among its potential applications.
The utility-scale Mahashakti system has a 6.26MWh capacity and 2.5MW output, with a 1331.2V DC architecture and liquid cooling. It can be configured for two- to four-hour durations and is intended for renewable energy management, peak shifting, energy arbitrage and grid support.
Ola Electric said the architecture can scale from a single container to GWh-scale energy storage plants. The company has also signed an MoU with Axis Energy for potential deployment of up to 20GWh of battery energy storage systems by 2032 under the Mahashakti platform.
Ola Shakti Portfolio Uses Indigenous LFP Cell Technology
Ola Electric said the energy storage portfolio will use LFP cells produced through its Krishnagiri Gigafactory and will leverage its existing distribution network. The company is positioning the products as a vertically integrated cell-to-pack offering.
Shakti Gen2 reservations are currently open through Ola Electric's website and retail network, with deliveries targeted for November 2026. Shakti Rack, Mahashakti Rack and Mahashakti are scheduled for March 2027, with reservations available for the latter two.
Ola Electric said further technical specifications, pricing for commercial and utility products, detailed performance data, warranty terms and partnership updates will be announced later.
