Dreamfly Innovations to Boost India's Drone Battery Production
Dreamfly Innovations is building a new factory in Bengaluru to make batteries for drones.
They are investing Rs 40 crore to create a 40,000 sq ft plant.
This factory will make advanced batteries for different types of drones used in defence, farming, delivery, and even future air taxis.
The initial plan is to produce 100 MWh of batteries each year, but they can increase this to 200 MWh if needed.
This is important because as more drones are used in India, it's crucial to have local production of batteries to support the industry.
Dreamfly Innovations is investing Rs 40 crore in a new aviation battery manufacturing facility in North Bengaluru.
The 40,000-sq ft plant will have an initial annual production capacity of 100 MWh, expandable to 200 MWh.
The facility aims to develop state-of-the-art batteries for India's growing drone economy.
Advanced aviation batteries will be manufactured for diverse applications, including defence, surveillance, agriculture, logistics, and air taxis.
The investment is aimed at supporting domestic drone makers and reducing dependence on imported batteries.
