Fujiyama Power Systems Ltd, a rooftop solar solutions provider in India, today announced the commissioning of its 1 GW solar cell manufacturing plant located at Dadri, Uttar Pradesh. The company currently operates 1.6 GW of solar panel manufacturing capacity, of which 1.2 GW is based in Dadri. The entire solar cell capacity from the new facility will be used for in-house consumption.
By establishing in-house solar cell manufacturing, Fujiyama aims supply-chain security, reduce dependence on imported solar cells, and improved cost control. This vertical integration provides the company with a competitive advantage in its solar cell–to–rooftop solar consumer strategy. The facility will manufacture mono PERC domestic content requirement (DCR) solar cells, enabling Fujiyama to address consumer demand driven by government subsidy programs.
The manufacturing facility has been completed with a total investment of INR 300 crore, funded through a combination of internal accruals and debt.
“The commissioning of our solar cell manufacturing facility at Dadri represents a significant step in strengthening Fujiyama’s manufacturing integration. The project has been completed within a short period of six months, which is significantly faster than the timelines typically seen for similar projects in the industry, and has also been executed well with savings in the originally budgeted cost,” said chairman and joint managing director, Pawan Kumar Garg.
“By bringing solar cell production in-house, we are improving visibility and control across the value chain, reducing reliance on imported cells and improving supply reliability for our solar panel operations. As our business is primarily focused on the domestic market with negligible export exposure, this integrated facility also insulates us from global trade uncertainties and tariff-related disruptions.”
