India Plans 30 GW Polysilicon Manufacturing Capacity by 2030 to Boost Solar Industry
India aims to develop 30 gigawatts of polysilicon manufacturing capacity by 2030 to boost domestic solar component production, potentially attracting Rs 25,000 crore in investment. The government plans a dedicated scheme to support this expansion, supplementing the existing production-linked incentive program. An estimated Rs 850 crore is needed per gigawatt of polysilicon plant capacity. Additionally, research into Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries as an alternative energy storage solution is ongoing, with initial orders placed by NTPC Green Energy Limited.
