India Plans 30 GW Polysilicon Manufacturing Capacity with New Support Scheme by 2030
India aims to develop at least 30 gigawatts of domestic polysilicon manufacturing capacity by 2030, requiring an estimated investment of around Rs 25,000 crore. The government is working on a dedicated subsidy scheme to support this, as the existing production-linked incentive scheme is expected to generate only limited capacity. Polysilicon is a key upstream component in solar manufacturing, and expanding domestic production is seen as vital for energy security and manufacturing resilience. Details of the new scheme are still being finalized.
