03 Nov 2025 CW Team

GREW Solar, one of India’s fastest-growing solar PV manufacturers, has launched its G12R High-Power Series ahead of REI Expo 2025, aligning with India’s renewable energy vision of 500 GW capacity by 2030. The launch comes amid record solar and wind generation in the first half of 2025, which cut nearly 24 million tonnes of emissions.

The G12R High-Power Series, delivering up to 635 Wp, is designed for large-scale solar projects, cutting total module count by 6–8% per MW and reducing balance-of-system costs. It offers 6–7% higher container power density and 1.5–3% more power per m² than standard TOPCon modules.

Dr Mohammad Rihan, Director General, National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE), said, “The G12R High-Power Series reflects how Indian manufacturers are not just scaling capacity but also raising benchmarks in technology and quality. Such initiatives play a vital role in strengthening domestic manufacturing and ensuring long-term energy security.”

Vinay Thadani, CEO & Director, GREW Solar, added, “The G12R High-Power Series is designed to meet the real needs of large-scale developers while supporting India’s clean energy goals. We are building a manufacturing ecosystem that ensures scale, efficiency, and reliability.”

With an existing 6.5 GW PV module facility in Dudu (Jaipur), GREW Solar is expanding its capacity to 11.0 GW, alongside an 8.0 GW cell facility in Narmadapuram (Madhya Pradesh). Backed by a recent Rs 300 crore fundraise, the company aims to complete this expansion by 2026.
