Kumara Jayakody, Minister of Energy, Government of Sri Lanka, and Muaviyath Mohamed, Minister of State, Environment and Tourism, Maldives, recently visited Jakson Group’s fully automated solar module manufacturing facility in Greater Noida to witness its advanced capabilities and explore avenues for clean energy partnerships.
The delegation was briefed on Jakson’s latest PV technologies.
Jakson’s Noida facility has an annual solar module manufacturing capacity of 1.2 GW, supplying TOPCon modules to leading renewable energy projects.
Discussions focused on potential collaboration across technology adoption, project execution, and supply-chain strengthening, including how such expertise could contribute to Sri Lanka’s target of generating 70% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030 as well as support Maldives’ ambition to achieve carbon neutrality and advance long-term economic resilience.
“India is at the forefront of the global clean-energy transition, and witnessing manufacturing at this scale and sophistication is invaluable. We are impressed by the innovation and quality at Jakson. This visit is an important step toward leveraging partnerships to advance Sri Lanka’s energy security and sustainability objectives,” said Kumara Jayakody.
Muaviyath Mohamed commented, “The Maldives is committed to a green future, with renewable energy at the center of our sustainability journey. Jakson Group’s innovation in renewable and alternate fuels is commendable and reflects the kind of responsible manufacturing that supports global efforts to reduce carbon footprints and safeguard the environment for future generations.”
