India to Double Solar Module Capacity to 160 GW by 2030

India is poised for a massive leap in solar manufacturing, with solar module production capacity expected to double from 80 GW in 2025 to 160 GW by 2030. Experts project solar cell manufacturing to grow even more dramatically — from 15 GW to 120 GW over the same period.

 

These figures, revealed in a SolarPower Europe report with India-specific insights from the National Solar Energy Federation of India (NSEFI), highlight the country’s commitment to building a robust domestic solar supply chain.

 

India is not just scaling solar module and cell production. The report also forecasts that manufacturers will significantly increase wafer and polysilicon production — critical upstream components. They plan to boost capacity in this segment from 6 GW in 2025 to 100 GW by 2030, reinforcing India’s aim to cut reliance on imported solar components and strengthen self-reliance in clean energy technologies.
