ELANTAS Beck India strengthens its Specialty Chemicals Capabilities to Support India’s Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) Industry

ELANTAS Beck India, a leading provider of electrical insulation and electronic protection solutions, today announced the strengthening of its specialty chemicals capabilities for Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) applications, supporting the evolving needs of India’s energy storage ecosystem.

 

The company is strengthening its engagement with BESS manufacturers, component suppliers and OEMs in India by bringing together relevant material technologies, local application expertise and customer focused development support across critical energy-storage subsystems with selected locally manufactured materials, supported by access to ELANTAS’ wider global technology portfolio and local application expertise. The growing deployment of renewable energy, together with the need for grid flexibility, reliable backup power and more resilient energy infrastructure, is increasing the relevance of battery energy storage in India.

 

As BESS manufacturing localises, materials and technologies supporting the wider system also need to be increasingly available locally. Manufacturers also require specialised materials that can manage heat, protect sensitive electronics, and provide reliable bonding, insulation and environmental protection across the system. These requirements play an important role in the performance, reliability, and safety of BESS installations over their operating life.

 

ELANTAS brings decades of experience in developing specialty chemicals for demanding electrical and electronic applications to address these requirements. Its BESS capabilities span thermally conductive adhesives, thermal interface materials, conformal coatings, and potting and encapsulation materials. These solutions support applications across battery modules, battery management systems, power conversion systems and inverters, energy management electronics, cooling systems, and other critical subsystems. Together, these capabilities enable ELANTAS materials to address multiple requirements within BESS, from thermal management and heat transfer to the protection of electronic components, insulation, bonding, and environmental protection.

 

Mr. Anurag Roy – Managing Director, ELANTAS Beck India, said, “The opportunity in BESS reflects a broader shift in the way electrical and electronic systems are evolving. For us, entering an emerging application is about understanding where our proven chemistries can address new performance requirements. We combine that foundation with R&D, application expertise and customer collaboration to develop solutions for new industries and their evolving needs, while enabling greater localisation of critical materials and capabilities. BESS is one such area where we see our expertise becoming increasingly relevant as the industry develops in India.”

 

The focus on BESS forms part of ELANTAS Beck India’s broader strategy to build on its established leadership in electrical insulation while expanding its relevance across electronics protection, thermal management, bonding and other specialty-material applications.

 

As industries become increasingly technology-intensive, ELANTAS continues to build relevance by applying its proven chemistry and application expertise to emerging performance requirements. The company’s focus remains on combining proven solutions with market needs to create value for customers and support the development of manufacturing capabilities in India.
