The launch marks a strategic push by domestic equipment makers into the utility-scale solar segment.
Ahmedabad-headquartered solar photovoltaic (PV) manufacturer GREW Solar launched its G12R High-Power Series on Wednesday, signalling the entry of another domestic equipment maker into India’s fast-growing utility-scale solar segment.
The new module range delivers up to 635 watt-peak (Wp) and is engineered to improve efficiency across large-scale installations by reducing total module count by 6-8 per cent per MW, lowering balance of system (BOS) costs, and streamlining logistics and installation timelines.
Designed for high-density deployment, the G12R series features an optimised cell layout and reinforced mechanical structure. Compared to standard tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) modules, it offers up to 7 per cent higher container power density and up to 3 per cent more power per square metre, enabling developers to maximise output per acre.
Mohammad Rihan, Director General, National Institute of Solar Energy (NISE), said, “The launch of the G12R High-Power Series reflects how Indian manufacturers are not just scaling capacity but also raising benchmarks in technology and quality. As India moves steadily toward its 2047 energy independence vision, such initiatives play a vital role in strengthening domestic manufacturing and ensuring long-term energy security.”
Vinay Thadani, CEO and Director, GREW Solar, remarked, “The G12R High-Power Series is designed to meet the real needs of large-scale developers while supporting India’s clean energy goals. As the country moves toward 500 GW of renewable capacity by 2030 and energy independence by 2047, we are building a manufacturing ecosystem that ensures scale, efficiency, and reliability.”
Hardip Singh, COO, GREW Solar, added, “The G12R High-Power Series is the result of close collaboration across our engineering, manufacturing, and R&D teams, all aligned toward building modules that deliver both performance and reliability at scale. As we expand our cell and module capacities, our priority remains ensuring efficiency across every stage of production while contributing meaningfully to India’s growing renewable ecosystem.”
GREW Solar currently operates a 6.5 GW PV module facility in Rajasthan and is expanding its capacity to 11.0 GW, alongside an 8.0 GW PV cell facility in Madhya Pradesh. Backed by a recent ₹3 billion fundraise, the company is accelerating its manufacturing footprint, R&D initiatives, and innovation roadmap, with full-scale rollout targeted by 2026.
