SECI Invites Bids for Manufactured Solar Modules

In a significant move to boost domestic solar manufacturing, the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has initiated the bidding process for the supply of solar modules manufactured within the country. The move aligns with the government's commitment to enhancing the local solar manufacturing ecosystem and reducing reliance on imports.

The bidding process invites manufacturers to participate in supplying solar modules, further contributing to the growth and development of the indigenous solar manufacturing sector. SECI's efforts are aimed at fostering a self-sustaining solar industry that not only meets the country's growing renewable energy demands but also creates employment opportunities and promotes technological advancements.

By emphasising the use of domestically manufactured solar modules, SECI aims to strengthen the Make in India initiative in the renewable energy sector. The move is expected to encourage investments in solar manufacturing facilities, enhance the competitiveness of local manufacturers, and contribute to achieving energy security and sustainability goals.

SECI's initiative is part of broader strategies to align the solar energy sector with the vision of Aatmanirbhar Bharat (self-reliant India), emphasizing the importance of indigenous production and reducing dependence on imports. As the bidding process unfolds, it is anticipated to stimulate growth in the solar manufacturing ecosystem, supporting the nation's transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy sources.
