Tata Power is set to establish India’s largest integrated manufacturing facility for solar wafers and ingots, with a planned capacity of 10 GW. The move marks a major step toward strengthening India’s domestic solar manufacturing ecosystem and reducing dependence on imported components in the renewable energy value chain.

The proposed plant will produce ingots and wafers, the essential raw materials used in solar cell production, complementing Tata Power’s existing 4.9 GW cell and module manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu. Once operational, the new plant will help create a fully backwards-integrated solar production line, enhancing supply chain efficiency and driving cost competitiveness for large-scale solar deployment.

According to the company, the project aligns with the Government of India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative and its broader goal to develop a robust renewable energy manufacturing base. Tata Power is currently assessing potential locations and evaluating support from both central and state governments to facilitate the investment, which is expected to be finalised within the next two months.

The development underscores Tata Power’s growing role in advancing India’s clean energy ambitions. With the country targeting 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030, the new facility is expected to not only bolster domestic manufacturing but also position India as a key player in the global solar supply chain.
