India Reaches 100 GW Solar Module Manufacturing Capacity

14 Aug 2025 CW Team

India has achieved a major milestone with 100 GW of solar PV module manufacturing capacity now enlisted under the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) for Solar PV Modules. The achievement underscores the nation’s rapid progress in creating a strong, self-reliant solar manufacturing ecosystem, in line with the Atmanirbhar Bharat vision and global clean energy goals.

Union Minister of New and Renewable Energy Pralhad Joshi hailed the development as historic, noting the remarkable growth from just 2.3 GW in 2014 to 100 GW in 2025. He credited the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and transformative policies such as the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for High-Efficiency Solar Modules for driving this expansion.

“This milestone not only strengthens our journey towards Atmanirbhar Bharat but also supports India’s target of achieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030,” Joshi said.

The rapid scaling of domestic manufacturing capacity is expected to reduce import dependence, create jobs, and position India as a global hub for high-quality solar PV module production, further accelerating the country’s clean energy transition.
