Waaree Energies’ board has approved the consolidation of some of its module manufacturing operations in Gujarat. The company plans to relocate plant and machinery from its 1 GW Tumb facility and 1.11 GW Nandigram facility to its existing manufacturing site in Chikhli.
Waaree said in December 2025 that its total solar module manufacturing capacity in India, including Indosolar, had reached 20.17 GW. Its Chikhli facility accounted for 16.44 GW of capacity approved under India’s Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM). The company also operates 5.4 GW of solar cell manufacturing capacity in Chikhli. The relocation of the Tumb and Nandigram equipment is a consolidation of existing production assets and therefore does not, by itself, represent an additional 2.11 GW of group manufacturing capacity.
The board has also approved approximately $37 million of capital expenditure by Waaree Solar Americas Inc. (WSA), a wholly owned subsidiary, to revamp its module manufacturing facility in Arizona, United States.
The project will replace the facility’s existing module production lines with higher-efficiency equipment and increase its annual manufacturing capacity from 1 GW to 1.6 GW.
Following the expansion, Waaree Energies said its total module manufacturing capacity in the United States will reach 4.8 GW, comprising 3.2 GW in Texas and 1.6 GW in Arizona.
The company said the Arizona investment will be financed through a combination of debt and internal accruals.
