AmpIn Energy Transition announced a collaboration with Jupiter International to establish a 1.3 GW solar cell and module manufacturing plant in the country. As part of the collaboration, a cutting-edge manufacturing facility will be established to produce up to 1.3 gigatonnes (GW) of high-quality solar cells and modules under the PLI tranche-II project.

 

The PLI initiative supports the central government's ambition to boost manufacturing, diminish global supply chain disruptions and reduce India's dependence on solar imports, it said, as per economic times.

 

"There is a strong demand for Indian solar modules and with the right support and policies this move will help us achieve backward integration and enhance our control over the supply chain for crucial components, which will help us optimise our operations for quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness," AmpIn Energy Transition MD & CEO Pinaki Bhattacharyya said.

 

"Combining our solar cell manufacturing prowess with AmpIn's commitment to renewables will play a major role in stabilising the supply chain and reducing India's reliance on imports," Jupiter International Chairman Alok Garodia said.
