RenewSys, a leading producer of solar photovoltaic modules and key components, is set to expand its encapsulant production capacity to 30 gigawatts (GW) by adding eight new manufacturing lines at its recently launched facility in Khopoli, Maharashtra. Once completed, this will bring the total number of encapsulant lines to 19, supporting both domestic and international demand for solar solutions.
At present, the company operates seven encapsulant lines, with four additional lines expected to be commissioned in 2025. RenewSys currently has 9 GW of encapsulant and 4 GW of backsheet manufacturing capacity. In parallel, the company is increasing its solar module production to 5.5 GW by the 2026–27 financial year, backed by a 2.5 GW high-efficiency solar cell line that is currently under installation.
“As India speeds up its clean energy transition, supported by progressive initiatives from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, we are expanding our operations to stay ahead of the rising demand,” said Avinash Hiranandani, Vice Chairman & Managing Director of RenewSys. “This investment strengthens our ability to support solar module manufacturers with top-tier encapsulant solutions, ensuring performance and reliability. It marks another milestone in our efforts to contribute to a cleaner energy future both in India and globally.”
The expansion underscores RenewSys’s role in strengthening the solar supply chain and reinforces its long-term commitment to advancing renewable energy through scalable, quality-driven Manufacturing, RenewSys is a prominent player in India’s renewable energy sector, known as the country’s first fully integrated manufacturer of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules and key components.
Founded as a part of the ENPEE Group, a conglomerate with a legacy of manufacturing excellence, RenewSys has established itself as a leader in the solar industry. With a diverse portfolio that includes high-performance encapsulants, backsheets, and PV modules, the company is committed to driving India’s solar energy growth and contributing to global renewable energy goals.
The company’s manufacturing capabilities include an impressive 9 GW capacity for encapsulants and 4 GW for backsheets. It is also in the process of installing a high-efficiency 2.5 GW cell line. RenewSys’ recent expansion in encapsulant production, including the addition of eight new lines at its Khopoli facility, showcases its proactive approach to meeting the surging demand for solar components. By 2025, the company is expected to achieve a cumulative installed manufacturing capacity of 30 GW, further strengthening its position in the market.
Beyond manufacturing, RenewSys invests heavily in research and development to deliver cutting-edge products like Transparent Backsheets and Anti-Acid Encapsulants. The company’s ongoing innovation and commitment to sustainability align with its mission to support India’s renewable energy vision and promote global energy transition.
