Vikram Solar today announced that it has reached 10 GW of cumulative PV module deployments globally. The manufacturer said the installed capacity is equivalent to more than 25 million modules and is enough to power over 5 million households in India. It added that the cumulative deployments doubled from 5 GW to 10 GW in just two years.
While a majority of deployments are in India, the company has exported around 1.5 GW of modules contributing to its presence across 39 countries.
Vikram Solar currently has 9.5 GW of module manufacturing capacity across facilities in West Bengal (Falta) and Tamil Nadu (Oragadam and Vallam), including a 5 GW plant in Vallam. The company is expanding its module capacity and backward integration, with plans for 6 GW of modules and 12 GW of cell capacity at its Gangaikondan site. It is also entering the energy storage segment through VSL Powerhive, with plans for a 5 GWh battery energy storage system (BESS) facility by FY2027. The company offers lithium battery solutions for residential and mobility backup applications under its VION brand.
