Batliboi Limited’s Environmental Engineering Group (EEG) Division has secured a ₹52 crore contract from SAEL Industries Limited to design, supply, install and commission pollution control equipment for SAEL’s upcoming solar cell manufacturing facility at Jewar, Uttar Pradesh. The order marks a significant milestone for the company’s expansion into the rapidly growing solar manufacturing sector.
The project will support SAEL’s 6 GW solar cell production line and further strengthens Batliboi’s position as a provider of advanced environmental engineering solutions for India’s clean energy industry. The project is scheduled to be completed and commissioned within the next six to eight months.
Under the agreement, Batliboi’s EEG Division will undertake the complete design, engineering, supply, installation and commissioning of a turnkey PEX (Process Exhaust) System for the new manufacturing facility. The system will help maintain a safe and environmentally compliant production environment by efficiently managing process emissions generated during solar cell manufacturing.
The contract reflects Batliboi’s growing expertise in delivering pollution control and air engineering solutions for high-technology manufacturing facilities. The EEG Division has built a strong presence across industries including steel, cement, power, chemicals, tyres and other process sectors. The latest order also reinforces the company’s capabilities in supporting India’s expanding renewable energy manufacturing ecosystem.
This is not Batliboi’s first project in the solar manufacturing industry. The EEG Division had earlier successfully executed a Process Exhaust System for Adani Mundra Solar Limited’s solar module manufacturing facility. The successful completion of that project has strengthened the company’s credentials in providing specialised environmental engineering solutions for solar manufacturing plants.
Commenting on the development, Sanjiv Joshi, Managing Director of Batliboi Limited, said the ₹52 crore order represents a major achievement for the company’s Environmental Engineering Group. He said the project demonstrates Batliboi’s technical expertise, engineering capabilities and execution strength while supporting the company’s strategic expansion into the solar manufacturing supply chain.
He added that the project aligns with the Government of India’s efforts to promote domestic manufacturing across the renewable energy sector and strengthen the country’s self-reliance in clean energy technologies. Joshi expressed confidence that the successful execution of the project will contribute to the division’s future growth and create long-term value for shareholders. The project also supports India’s broader objective of building a robust domestic solar manufacturing ecosystem under various government initiatives aimed at reducing dependence on imported solar equipment and strengthening local production capabilities.
