The Indian solar manufacturing sector is set for a boom in the coming years, due to the country’s enormous appetite for solar and policy support in the form of import duties and local production incentives. On the technology side, a few players are already looking at n-type TOPCon cells, but their embrace by the majority has been slow to materialize, due to the high investment costs that are required. This ensures that the build-out of new PERC capacity will continue over the short term.
Indian solar glass manufacturer Borosil plans to ramp up production capacity from 450 tons per day at present to 2,000 tons per day by the middle of next year, in line with an expected increase in demand.
