RenewSys, India’s first integrated solar photovoltaic (PV) module manufacturer, has announced a major expansion of its encapsulant production at its Khopoli plant. The company is adding eight new production lines to meet the rising global and domestic demand for high-performance encapsulants used in solar panels.
The facility already has seven operational lines, and four more are expected to be commissioned in 2025. This will bring the total number of production lines to 19. The expansion is part of RenewSys’ plan to reach a total installed manufacturing capacity of 30 gigawatts (GW), strengthening its leadership in the Indian encapsulant market.
Avinash Hiranandani, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of RenewSys, said the company is focused on building its leadership in the solar sector. “We are investing in innovative products like Transparent Backsheets and Anti-Acid Encapsulants, along with our established EVA, POE, and EPE offerings,” he said. “These investments in technology and sustainability are essential for meeting both domestic and global demand.”
RenewSys currently leads the market in encapsulants and backsheets. It has an existing encapsulant manufacturing capacity of 9 GW. The new lines at Khopoli show the company’s continued commitment to manufacturing quality, research-driven innovation, and support for India’s renewable energy targets.
The company is a key player in India’s clean energy sector. It is also the country’s first fully integrated manufacturer of solar PV modules and essential components. RenewSys is part of the ENPEE Group, a business group known for its strong record in manufacturing.
RenewSys offers a broad range of solar products, including encapsulants, backsheets, and PV modules. Its current production capacity includes 9 GW for encapsulants and 4 GW for backsheets. In addition, the company is installing a new high-efficiency cell production line with a capacity of 2.5 GW.
With the ongoing expansion in encapsulant production, RenewSys aims to meet the growing demand for solar components. By 2025, the company expects to reach a cumulative installed manufacturing capacity of 30 GW. This will further boost its standing in both Indian and international markets.
