Jupiter International Doubles Solar Cell Capacity in Baddi

Jupiter International has commissioned its third solar cell plant in Baddi, Himachal Pradesh, doubling its total solar manufacturing capacity to nearly 2 GW. This new plant also introduces 1 GW to its current capacity of 959 MW which was a significant achievement towards domestic production of solar cells in India.

The growth will enhance the presence of Jupiter International in the rapidly expanding renewable energy industry when the demand of the solar components manufactured locally is on the increase.

The new unit has the latest mono PERC technology which has a higher efficiency and the power output of the unit is better. This is a technology which will enable solar panels to produce a larger amount of power with the same quantity of sunlight which will make the project cost effective.

In the future, Jupiter international will launch 1.25 GW TOPCon solar cell line, which will indicate that it is considering the next generation technology. TOPCon cells are also created to offer even higher efficiency and long-term performance service keeping the company competitive in a market that is rapidly changing.

The establishment of the third solar cell plant shows a signal of increased investor confidence and reaffirms the overall clean energy objectives of India.
