Adani Solar, the solar manufacturing arm of the Adani Group, has achieved a significant milestone by shipping over 15,000 megawatts (MW) of solar modules globally. This marks a strong push toward India’s renewable energy ambitions and its Atmanirbhar Bharat vision.
Of the total capacity shipped, 10,000 MW were delivered to domestic projects, while 5,000 MW were exported to international markets. This translates to nearly 28 million solar modules, enough to power about five million homes and prevent an estimated 60 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually. Around 70 percent of these modules were manufactured using India-made solar cells, reinforcing Adani’s commitment to local production and sustainability.
With this feat, Adani Solar has become the first Indian company to cross the 15 GW shipment milestone and stands among the world’s top ten solar module manufacturers, as recognized by research firm Wood Mackenzie. The company plans to expand its current 4 GW annual manufacturing capacity to 10 GW in the next fiscal year, with an ambition to ship an additional 15 GW thereafter.
The company’s expansion aligns with India’s larger goal of becoming a global hub for solar manufacturing. The country’s total solar module capacity is projected to exceed 125 GW by 2025, well above the estimated domestic demand of 40 GW, opening vast export potential.
Adani Solar’s achievement underscores India’s growing self-reliance in renewable energy technology, reducing dependence on imports and strengthening the country’s position in the global clean energy supply chain. It also contributes to the creation of over 2,500 green jobs and supports the government’s mission to achieve 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based power capacity by 2030.
