Premier Energies commissions ₹3,293 cr solar cell facility in Andhra
The 7 GW TOPCon facility at Naidupeta, developed at a capital expenditure of Rs 3,293 crore, will increase Premier Energies' total solar cell capacity to 10.6 GW
Premier Energies has inaugurated its largest solar cell manufacturing plant in Naidupeta, Andhra Pradesh, with a capacity of 7 GW. The facility, named N-type TOPCon G12R, is part of the company's ambitious plan to expand its solar manufacturing capabilities and reduce reliance on external supply chains. The 101-acre plant, with a capital expenditure of ₹3,293 crore, began trial runs shortly after commissioning and is on track to deliver average solar cell efficiency of 25.8%.
Premier Energies anticipates the new plant will bolster its position in supplying high-efficiency solar products to both domestic and international markets, as India strives to achieve a non-fossil fuel capacity of 500 GW by 2030.
