Amaron batteries will energise the 21km route of the Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon 2026, harvesting kinetic energy from runners.
Along the course, Amaron packs will kick‑start generator sets that light up motivation zones, water points, rest areas and street lighting. The company says these units will run from the start on 18 October, ensuring a steady power flow for all infrastructure.
At the event expo, a massive Amaron battery installation doubles as a mobile charging hub for participants collecting their bibs. The setup will showcase the brand’s capacity to deliver high‑power output in a compact, field‑ready format.
A standout feature is the kinetic floor tiles that capture the energy of every runner’s step. Sensors tally the power generated, and an energy‑management system routes it back into the battery packs—proof that human motion can be turned into usable electricity.
Chandrasekar Radhakrishnan, Amara Raja’s President of Automotive and Home Energy, said the partnership expands the brand’s focus on dependable power to a sporting setting. He added that Amaron is part of a broader portfolio that includes lithium‑ion cell manufacturing, EV chargers, battery‑pack assembly and lubricants, positioning it alongside rivals like Exide and Powerzone.
For buyers, the marathon act signals Amaron’s growing role in India’s EV ecosystem. As the country pushes for more domestic battery production, consumers can expect robust, high‑capacity battery options from a brand already trusted in automotive applications. The partnership also hints at upcoming product launches that will tap into the momentum of clean‑energy initiatives.
Mark your calendar: the partnership is live from 15 to 17 October at Yashobhoomi, Dwarka, with the race itself on 18 October. Keep an eye on Amaron’s future releases—likely to follow the same path of practical, high‑performance power solutions.
