An energy management system (EMS) for tendered battery storage: dispatch schedules, grid-code response and monthly availability evidence. Made in India, supplied to the EPC or delivered as a complete BESS.
Ingro EMS-GS is a made-in-India energy management system for grid-scale battery energy storage (BESS) tenders. It is the plant controller at the substation: it executes the dispatch schedule, delivers the frequency and reactive-power response the connection agreement requires, and keeps the availability, efficiency, cycle and battery-health records a tendered BESS is paid and penalised against. Ingro supplies it to the EPC contractor, developer or integrator delivering the tender — or delivers the complete BESS turnkey, with the EMS inside.
A tendered BESS is not judged on what it could do, but on what it can prove it did: every dispatch, every availability hour, every cycle. The EMS is the component that does the work and keeps the evidence.
Each obligation lives in a specific part of the plant. Scroll through them and the drawing shows where.
A tendered BESS charges and discharges against schedules issued by the grid operator, often revised within the day. The EMS executes each schedule at the point of connection, holds the plant to its ramp limits, and records every deviation with its cause in the operator's own format and timing.
Frequency response, reactive power and voltage support are written into the connection agreement, and the controller delivers them at the substation. Control response is specified per project — sub-millisecond, 4 ms, 10 ms or 20 ms — to match the grid code, the connection agreement or the client's own requirement.
Real-time telemetry and control signals reach the grid operator's systems over whichever protocol the connection specifies, alongside REST and WebSocket interfaces for the owner's own portfolio systems.
State-of-health, cycle and temperature records are maintained against the battery supplier's warranty terms, and the degradation trend is reported so capacity augmentation is planned rather than discovered.
Tendered storage is typically paid against contracted availability and round-trip efficiency, and penalised for shortfalls. Availability, efficiency and cycle counts are recorded continuously from metered data and evidenced monthly against the contracted values, each figure carrying its basis.
Battery storage supported under India's viability gap funding requires the EMS application software to be developed indigenously. Ingro EMS is designed, written and maintained in India by Ingro Energy's own team. How compliance is evidenced is set by each tender document — send it, and we respond against its clauses.
Bidding a VGF-supported plant? Why a made-in-India EMS matters for VGF tenders
Whoever is delivering the tender — EPC contractor, integrator or developer — there is a defined way to put Ingro EMS inside the plant. Pick yours to see what Ingro carries and what stays with you.
For the EPC contractor or integrator delivering the tender: the EMS controller, operator console, SCADA interface and reporting suite, integrated with whichever battery and PCS make the bid specified, commissioned and supported in India.
See EMS-GSFor a developer who wants one accountable party: battery containers, PCS, EMS, civil and electrical works, commissioning and long-term O&M, delivered and managed as one system.
See turnkey BESSFor an owner whose plant runs on a locked or underperforming vendor EMS: a replacement controller over the existing hardware — the route Ingro took on India's first grid-scale BESS.

Comparing EMS vendors for the same plant? Eight questions to ask of any BESS EMS
On a tendered plant, control usually runs on site at the substation, with cloud reporting and fleet visibility layered on top.
Control runs on site and keeps operating offline; the cloud adds fleet visibility, forecasting, re-optimisation and remote support.

What it shows a bidder
Five stages, each ending in something you can put in the bid file or hand to the lender.
We read the technical specification and respond clause by clause on the EMS and SCADA scope, so the bid states what the plant will actually deliver.
You get: A clause-by-clause EMS and SCADA response
Dispatch, degradation and augmentation are modelled against the tender's duty cycle before equipment is ordered.
You get: A modelled duty cycle and augmentation plan
Register maps for the selected battery, PCS and metering are configured. A make not previously encountered is added as configuration, not new hardware.
You get: A controller configured for the chosen hardware
Wired, configured and tested against the connection agreement, with the results recorded and handed over.
You get: Recorded grid-code test results
Dispatch, availability, efficiency and battery-health reports issued on cadence to the operator, the lender and the insurer, with a defined route for support.
You get: Monthly reports to operator, lender and insurer

Use an EMS that is made in India, works with the battery and PCS make you bid, executes the grid operator's dispatch schedules, delivers grid-code response at the control speed the connection requires, and evidences availability monthly. Ingro EMS-GS is built for exactly that. Ingro is the EMS and SCADA technology partner on India's first grid-scale BESS — the 10 MW / 10 MWh plant at Tata Power-DDL's Rohini substation in Delhi.
Yes. Ingro supplies the EMS controller, operator console, SCADA interface and reporting suite to the EPC contractor, developer or integrator, integrated with the battery and PCS make the bid specified — or delivers the complete BESS turnkey if one accountable party is preferred.
Control response is specified per project — sub-millisecond, 4 ms, 10 ms or 20 ms — to match the grid code, the connection agreement or the client's own requirement.
Yes. Ingro is the EMS and SCADA technology partner on India's first grid-scale BESS — the 10 MW / 10 MWh plant at Tata Power-DDL's Rohini substation in Delhi. Ingro took over the EMS and SCADA from a legacy vendor-locked platform, coordinating 124 PCS units and cell-level data across 37 battery racks.
Battery storage supported under India's viability gap funding requires the EMS application software to be developed indigenously, and individual tenders can set further local-content conditions. Ingro EMS is designed, written and maintained in India. Always confirm the exact clause in the tender document you are bidding.
Yes. It is manufacturer-independent and register-map driven, integrating over Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU over RS485, SunSpec, IEC 61850, DNP3 and OPC-UA, plus dry contacts, digital I/O and aggregator gateways. A model not previously encountered is added as configuration rather than as new hardware.
Ingro EMS is deployed on site (offline), in the cloud, or as a hybrid of the two. In on-site and hybrid deployments, site control continues with no internet connection. On a tendered plant, control usually runs on site at the substation, with cloud reporting and fleet visibility layered on top as a hybrid.
Yes. The same platform runs behind-the-meter storage for commercial and industrial sites — peak shaving, time-of-day shifting, backup, solar self-consumption and diesel offset — and Ingro delivers those systems end to end as well.
