Premier Energies powers up its biggest solar plant

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.
