RenewSys, an integrated manufacturer of solar PV modules and components, has announced the addition of eight new encapsulant manufacturing lines at its recently commissioned Khopoli facility, taking its total number of encapsulant lines to 19. This will boost the company’s encapsulant manufacturing capacity to 30 GW, allowing it to meet the rising demand in both Indian and global solar markets.

The expansion builds on RenewSys’ seven encapsulant lines already operational and four more being commissioned during 2025. Currently, the company has 9 GW of encapsulant and 4 GW backsheet capacity, and is scaling its solar module capacity to 5.5 GW by FY 2026-27 with a 2.5 GW high-efficiency cell line under installation.

“Our focus remains on consolidating our leadership in the solar PV ecosystem with cutting-edge solutions like transparent backsheets and anti-acid encapsulants, along with our well-established EVA, POE and EPE products.” said Avinash Hiranandani, vice chairman and managing director, RenewSys. “We are investing in advanced technologies, optimizing costs, and scaling sustainably to meet both domestic and international demand.”
