The facility marks a significant milestone in Alpex Solar’s
backward-integration strategy and strengthens Uttar Pradesh’s position as an
emerging hub for renewable energy manufacturing.
Ashwani Sehgal, Managing Director, Alpex Solar Limited,
said, “Bharat is on its way to becoming Aatmanirbhar, and we at Alpex Solar are
proud to unfurl the next chapter in the green energy revolution through
technology, scale and ambitious backward integration into higher efficiency PV
solar cells. This feat of excellence wouldn’t have been possible without the
support of the state government and all our stakeholders. For us at Alpex, this
also marks the next level of growth, and with the support of our stakeholders,
including our team members, we remain committed to creating value and nurturing
positive impact all around.”
The inauguration reinforces Alpex Solar’s commitment to

India accelerates its transition towards renewable energy.
The new facility will add significant solar cell
manufacturing capacity to the company’s existing operations and strengthen its
ability to serve the domestic solar PV market.
Alpex’s facility is the first integrated TOPCon giga
manufacturing line in Uttar Pradesh, representing a major addition to the
state’s advanced solar manufacturing capabilities. The plant will manufacture
G12R TOPCon solar cells, a next-generation technology designed to deliver
higher efficiency and power output while supporting the evolving requirements
of the solar PV industry.
Aditya Sehgal, Chief Executive Officer, Alpex Solar Limited,
said, “The 2.2 GW G12R TOPCon cell manufacturing facility marks an important
milestone in Alpex Solar’s journey from a solar module manufacturer and EPC
provider to a more deeply integrated renewable energy company. Uttar Pradesh
has emerged as an important destination for advanced manufacturing, and we are
proud to contribute to the country’s growing solar ecosystem. This facility
will strengthen our technology and manufacturing capabilities while enabling us
to participate more meaningfully in India’s transition towards cleaner and more
secure energy.”
Alpex Solar’s entry into PV solar cell manufacturing marks a
significant step in its strategy to build an integrated solar PV manufacturing
platform. With capabilities spanning solar cells, modules and EPC services, the
company is strengthening its presence across the solar value chain and
enhancing its ability to serve India’s growing demand for clean energy.
The establishment of the facility in Uttar Pradesh is
expected to support the state’s renewable energy ambitions while contributing
to industrial development and job creation in the region.
Monica Sehgal, Whole-time Director, Alpex Solar Limited,
said: “The 2.2 GW TOPCon cell facility represents a strategic investment in
expanding our manufacturing depth and creating greater value across the solar
PV value chain. Vertical integration will give us greater control over critical
inputs, technology, and quality, while improving our ability to respond to
evolving market requirements. As India’s solar manufacturing ecosystem scales
up, we remain focused on disciplined capacity expansion, operational efficiency
and building sustainable long-term value for all stakeholders.”
Alpex Solar operates multiple manufacturing facilities
across Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, offering an integrated portfolio that
includes solar PV cells, solar PV modules, EPC solutions, solar pumps and
aluminium frames.
The company’s current operations in Greater Noida are set to
expand with five new manufacturing units across Greater Noida, Kosi-Kotwan in
