Jupiter International Ltd, a pure-play solar cell manufacturer in India and a provider of solar power solutions, has strengthened its clean energy portfolio with the receipt of a Letter of Empanelment (LoE) valued at INR 64.95 crore from the Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Co. Ltd (MSEDCL).
Under the empanelment, Jupiter International will be responsible for end-to-end execution, including manufacturing, supply, installation, testing, and long-term maintenance of off-grid solar PV water pumping systems as part of the state-run MTSKPY scheme.
The Magel Tyala Saur Krushi Pump Yojana (MTSKPY) is a flagship initiative of MSEDCL aimed at solarizing irrigation infrastructure in off-grid regions of Maharashtra, with a focus on supporting small and marginal farmers by providing reliable and sustainable water access.
“This Letter of Empanelment from MSEDCL marks a critical step in our journey to deliver impactful and sustainable solutions where they matter most—at the grassroots,” said Akash Garodia, Promoter and Whole Time Director at Jupiter International Ltd. “By bringing solar irrigation to underserved farming communities, we’re not only replacing diesel with clean energy but also aim to enhance farmer incomes, improving water access, and support the country’s broader goal of agricultural decarbonisation.”
As part of its outreach strategy, Jupiter will also launch a farmer awareness initiative through WhatsApp, SMS campaigns, and regional engagement networks to educate beneficiaries about the scheme’s benefits, application processes, and installation timelines.
