Premier Energies Commissions 5.6 GW Solar Facility, Surpasses 10 GW Module Capacity with Advanced Technology

Premier Energies Limited has commissioned a 5.6 GW solar module manufacturing facility at Seetharampur, Telangana, marking a major expansion in its production capabilities. Spread across 75 acres, the plant has begun trial production and is expected to generate around 2,000 jobs, contributing to the local economy while strengthening India’s clean energy manufacturing base.

With this addition, the company’s total solar module manufacturing capacity has reached 11.1 GW, reinforcing its position among India’s leading solar manufacturers and enhancing its ability to cater to both domestic and international demand.

The newly commissioned facility features a highly automated production line equipped with advanced manufacturing technologies. It is capable of producing four G12R TOPCon high-efficiency solar modules every 16 seconds, ensuring high throughput and consistent product quality. Automation also helps reduce operational costs while improving efficiency and output reliability.

The plant integrates artificial intelligence-based fault detection systems, enabling real-time identification and correction of defects. Additionally, the use of TOPCon technology combined with Zero Busbar (0BB) architecture enhances module performance by increasing energy yield, minimizing optical losses, and improving long-term durability.

Chiranjeev Saluja, Managing Director of Premier Energies, described the development as a key milestone in the company’s journey toward building a fully integrated solar manufacturing ecosystem. He noted that scaling capabilities across the value chain—from ingots to modules—will enable the company to deliver efficient and reliable solutions at scale.

Sudhir Reddy, Chief Strategy Officer, added that the facility aligns with the company’s long-term strategy to expand integrated manufacturing while supporting India’s renewable energy goals. He emphasized that investments in advanced technologies and domestic capacity will strengthen supply chain resilience and help meet rising global demand for high-efficiency solar products.
