At 2026, Hammond focused on understanding how the Indian market is evolving, especially the role SMEs will play in the next phase of growth. The big breakthrough we demonstrated is how lead‑acid batteries can incorporate innovations to grow alongside lithium rather than compete. John Miller, Senior Advisor on Hammond Group’s Innovation Leadership Council, brought a sharp perspective to this challenge, showing how LIGN3X™ and the 2800 Series of Advanced Expanders can become a game‑changing solution for Indian battery makers. It was one of those rare conversations that reframes the opportunity and opens a new path forward for the industry. (More about LIGN3X: https://hammondglobal.com/lignex-sheet )

We really enjoyed meeting with new people in the battery industry and reconnecting with friends we’ve worked with for years. Thanks to PowerOn for another successful conference!
