Jupiter International To Boost Solar Capacity With ₹65B Investment

Aiming for integrated leadership, Jupiter International is investing ₹65 billion to expand solar production, adding 3GW in wafers, 9.4GW in cells, and 6GW in modules.

Solar cell producer Jupiter International recently announced an investment of ₹65 billion over the next three years to expand its manufacturing capacity. The expansion plans include capacities of 3GW for wafer production, 9.4GW for solar cells, and 6GW for modules.

According to the company, it aims to transform into a fully integrated leader in solar production with the investment, covering the entire value chain from wafer production to module assembly.

Furthermore, this move will enable Jupiter to meet the growing demand for solar energy with high-quality and reliable solutions. By integrating wafer production and enhancing module assembly, the company seeks to optimise operational processes, ensuring improved quality, efficiency, and cost management.

Alok Garodia, Managing Director of Jupiter International, highlighted the company’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and quality. “We are not just increasing capacity, we are redefining leadership in solar manufacturing,” he said.

In addition to the manufacturing expansion, Jupiter is heavily investing in research and development (R&D). Focused on advancing solar technology, the company is adopting next-generation ‘TOPCon’ technology to enhance the efficiency and durability of its products. These technological advancements are set to address the evolving needs of the solar industry and strengthen the company’s competitive edge.

Founded in 2008, Jupiter International is known for its advanced solar solutions, with its manufacturing plant in Himachal Pradesh currently producing 1GW of solar photovoltaic cells annually. The new investments will further strengthen its position in India’s renewable energy sector.
