Jakson Group, a multifaceted energy solutions provider, has started work on building the first phase of its 6 GW integrated solar ingot-to-module manufacturing facility in Madhya Pradesh. The foundation stone for the facility was recently laid by Chief Minister, Dr. Mohan Yadav, at 113.5-acre project site in Maksi, Ujjain District.
To be built with an investment of over INR 8,000 crore, the facility is described as the largest solar manufacturing initiative in Madhya Pradesh
In Phase-I, Jakson will establish a 3 GW solar cell and 4 GW solar module manufacturing facility, followed by backward integration into ingot and wafer production in subsequent phases. The project will help develop a robust solar manufacturing ecosystem in Madhya Pradesh, fostering supply chain and ancillary industry growth
Dr. Mohan Yadav, Government of Madhya Pradesh, said, “[The project] reaffirms the success of our progressive and investor-friendly policies. The solar manufacturing hub at Maksi will create skilled jobs for our youth and position our state as the manufacturing and logistics centre of India’s clean energy transition. It reflects Madhya Pradesh’s strength as a growth-focused state with skilled talent and robust infrastructure, while advancing the nation’s vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat [self-reliant India].”
Jakson Group already has a strong presence in the state with a 150 KLPD grain-based ethanol manufacturing plant in Balaghat.
