Waaree Energies Ltd announced today that it has begun trial production at its 5.4 GW solar cell manufacturing facility in Chikhli, Gujarat. At 5.4 GW capacity, the facility is India’s largest advanced solar cell manufacturing plant.
“By focusing on indigenous solar cell manufacturing, Waaree continually aims to reduce reliance on imports, stabilize costs amidst global supply chain fluctuations, and position India as a global powerhouse in clean energy production,” stated Waaree Energies. “This facility, equipped to produce high-efficiency solar cells, not only meets the burgeoning domestic demand but also strengthens India’s footprint in international markets.”
Headquartered in Mumbai, Waaree Energies operates manufacturing facilities with an installed capacity of 13.3 GW for solar PV modules (including 1.3 GW of Indosolar). In addition to 5.4 GW PV cell capacity in Gujarat, the company is building a 6 GW wafer-to-module manufacturing hub in Odisha.
Waaree Energies is expanding its solar PV module manufacturing capabilities outside India with the establishment of up to 1.6 GW facility in Houston, Texas, in USA, which is planned for further expansion to 3 GW of solar module manufacturing by fiscal 2026 and 5 GW of solar module manufacturing by fiscal 2027.
