Luminous Power Technologies has inaugurated a manufacturing facility in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, expanding its production of lead acid batteries. Spanning 8 acres in the SIDCUL Industrial Estate, the plant features a green positive plate manufacturing using 100 per cent grey oxide through a wet paste filling process for industrial batteries. It also features an acid circulation system, an automatic battery assembly line with twice the speed of conventional systems, and a high-speed battery charging process that enhances efficiency while conserving water.
Additionally, the facility houses a Lead Acid & Alternative Chemistry Laboratory to drive research in sustainable energy solutions. Moreover, the factory also incorporates 3,036 rooftop solar panels generating 1 MW of power. It also includes a smart interface for real-time monitoring of production, digital dashboards, and an innovative learning centre, DOJO, designed to enhance employee training at all levels.
The facility is certified under Quality Management Systems (QMS), Environmental Management Systems (EMS), Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S), and Energy Management Systems by the British Standards Institution. It has also received recognition from CII for exemplary environmental practices. With an annual production capacity of 1.5-2 GWh, the plant follows a LEAN layout to ensure efficient operations and consistent quality.
