PVV Infra to Build One Point Two GW TOPCon Plant and One GW Module Unit

16 Feb 2026 CW Team

The MoU provides for joint development, trial production, training, process stabilisation and transfer of manufacturing documentation to support local production. The project will follow a phased development and technology deployment plan targeted for completion within 14-18 months, with further milestones tied to financing closure. PVV Infra indicated that the collaboration is a key step in its transition into advanced renewable energy manufacturing and aims to address the domestic manufacturing gap. The company framed the initiative as part of a vertically integrated clean energy manufacturing ecosystem.

PVV Infra had earlier signed a memorandum of understanding with the Andhra Pradesh government on 15 November 2025 to develop renewable manufacturing infrastructure initially valued at approximately Rs6.5 billion (bn). Following the technology partnership and the expansion of project scope to include integrated manufacturing across cells, modules, energy storage and smart power electronics, the total project value is now proposed to be enhanced to approximately Rs12.5 bn. The expanded figure remains subject to phased implementation, financing closure and execution milestones. Site allocation is planned at the Multiproduct Special Economic Zone in Naidupeta, Tirupati district.

The state government has approved solar cell and module manufacturing projects including a Websol Energy System proposal for a four GW complex. PVV Infra will file detailed project reports and regulatory filings as the partnership progresses. The company expects the manufacturing cluster to augment India’s renewable equipment production capabilities.
