Be Energy, a leader in battery regeneration, has once again distinguished itself on the international stage. Selected from among twelve French Fab companies for its mission “Explore & Match: French Fab India”, organised by Bpifrance and Business France, Be Energy embodies innovation and ecological commitment à la française.
From 27 November to 1 December 2023, the delegation of twelve French SMEs and ETIs was welcomed to India for a series of key meetings with major players in the local industry. Be Energy, as an emblematic representative of French expertise and innovation, had the opportunity to present its battery regeneration solutions, an area of increasing relevance in the Indian context marked by a rapid transition to electromobility and growing ecological awareness.
A stronger commitment in India
The creation of Be Energy India in Hyderabad, a major centre of industry and technology, marks a strategic turning point. Managed locally by Guillaume Quattropani, this subsidiary, 100% owned by Be Energy France, is dedicated to developing a network of battery regeneration centres, underlining the growing importance of the Indian market in this sector.
During its participation in the Explore & Match: French Fab India mission, Be Energy held high-level meetings with Indian industrial giants such as Tata Power, Mahindra and Godrej. These interactions have not only strengthened Be Energy’s position in the Indian market, but have also opened up prospects for future collaborations.
The Indian market: huge potential for battery regeneration
India, with its population of 1.4 billion by 2021, is a huge market for the battery sector. The transition to electric vehicles, with sales reaching almost one million by 2022, is creating massive demand for lithium batteries. Be Energy’s regeneration technology meets a dual challenge: economic and ecological.
A measurable ecological impact
The regeneration of one tonne of lead batteries by Be Energy saves 3 tonnes of CO2, a figure that testifies to the company’s positive impact on the environment. This process is fully in line with India’s sustainable development objectives, particularly in terms of reducing CO2 emissions and managing battery waste.
The forthcoming opening of the first Be Energy India centre in Hyderabad is a key milestone. This initiative will enable Be Energy to conduct tests with potential customers and consolidate its presence on the Indian market. The choice of location is not insignificant: Hyderabad is at the heart of a rapidly expanding market and an energy revolution.
Towards a promising Franco-Indian partnership
With its growing presence in India and its participation in international strategic missions, Be Energy is demonstrating its commitment to innovative, environmentally friendly technology. The company is thus positioning itself as a key player in India’s energy transition, ready to take up tomorrow’s challenges and contribute to a greener, more sustainable future in India and throughout the world.
