The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has revised the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) for solar PV modules, adding four new manufacturing facilities, approving multiple capacity expansions and including new module models across existing manufacturers. The latest revision marks the first-time enlistment of manufacturing facilities of Cosmic PV Power, Solarium Green Energy, Havells India and NRG SOL Power under the ALMM.
The update also reflects additional approved capacities and new module variants at several existing ALMM-listed facilities, with approvals largely focused on bifacial N-Type TOPCon technology.
Four manufacturers join ALMM
The latest revision includes four manufacturing facilities entering the ALMM for the first time.
Cosmic PV Power’s manufacturing facility at Surat, Gujarat has been enlisted with a capacity of 1,848 MW. Solarium Green Energy’s Ahmedabad, Gujarat manufacturing plant has been approved with a capacity of 1,230 MW, while Havells India’s Surat manufacturing facility has secured an enlisted capacity of 1,221 MW. NRG SOL Power’s manufacturing facility at Raipur, Chhattisgarh has been added with a capacity of 59 MW.
Among the new entrants, Cosmic PV Power recorded one of the largest capacity additions. Its Tadkeshwar unit in Surat received first-time ALMM approval for multiple families of bifacial N-Type TOPCon modules across 132-cell, 120-cell and 108-cell configurations. In March, Cosmic PV Power filed a draft red herring prospectus (DRHP) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to raise Rs 6,400 million through an initial public offering (IPO).
Existing manufacturers expand capacity and models
Several existing ALMM-listed manufacturers also received approvals for capacity expansions and additional module models.
Premier Energies secured approval for additional bifacial N-Type TOPCon module models from its Maheshwaram, Telangana manufacturing facility, which has an enlisted capacity of 1,507 MW.
Mundra Solar PV Limited received approvals for additional G12R TOPCon module models along with a capacity increase to 2,449 MW. Separately, the Mundra (Adani) Solar Energy manufacturing facility at Adani’s Mundra Solar Technopark received approvals for additional bifacial N-Type TOPCon module variants and a revised enlisted capacity of 1,904 MW.
TP Solar Limited received a capacity addition to 5,072 MW at its Gangaikondan manufacturing facility. Solex Energy Limited’s approved capacity increased to 3,782 MW, while Redren Energy Pvt. Ltd. received a capacity increase to 1,684 MW along with multiple TOPCon module variants.
Reliance Industries Ltd. secured a capacity addition with HJT module models of up to 730 Wp.
Waaree Energies Limited, Vikram Solar Limited, Insolation Green Energy Pvt. Ltd., Swelect HHV Solar Photovoltaics and Luminous Power Technologies Pvt. Ltd. also received approvals for additional module models and capacity expansions. Vikram Solar’s approvals include Hypersol TOPCon modules at its Vallam facility, while Luminous added multiple N-Type TOPCon modules ranging from 540 Wp to 625 Wp.
Eastman Green Technologies, Ganesh Green Bharat, GreenBrilliance Renewable Energy and Solarmint Energies also received approvals covering additional module models and capacity revisions at their existing manufacturing facilities.
TOPCon dominates new approvals
The latest revision is largely centred on bifacial N-Type TOPCon technology, reflecting the industry’s shift from Mono PERC modules.
Most newly approved models fall under bifacial N-Type TOPCon module families across 132-half-cell, 144-half-cell, 120-half-cell and 108-half-cell configurations. Companies including Premier Energies, Mundra Solar, Cosmic PV Power, Havells India, Eastman Green Technologies and Ganesh Green Bharat expanded their approved TOPCon portfolios.
At the same time, Solarium Green Energy and GreenBrilliance Renewable Energy received approvals for additional Mono PERC module variants, indicating continued demand for both technologies across different market segments.
ALMM framework
The ALMM Order, 2019, requires solar PV modules used in government and government-assisted projects to be sourced from manufacturers and models enlisted under ALMM List-I.
Only modules complying with BIS standards and meeting the prescribed minimum efficiency requirements of 18% to 20%, depending on the category, are eligible for enlistment.
According to the latest revision, the ALMM now includes more than 100 enlisted manufacturers and models, covering manufacturing capacities ranging from small-scale facilities to plants exceeding 10,000 MW.
