By increasing its workforce to over 5,500 employees by FY25, Goldi Solar aims to contribute to the economic development of the region. To support its expansion and contribute to skill development in the solar manufacturing space, Goldi Solar has partnered with L&T Public Charitable to provide training programs.
Currently, Goldi Solar operates two module manufacturing plants located in Pipodara and Navsari districts of Gujarat. These facilities have been instrumental in the company’s success in the solar industry.
Goldi Solar’s substantial investment in expanding its manufacturing capacity and diversifying its product offerings showcases its commitment to renewable energy and sustainability. By positioning itself for growth and investing in local talent, the company aims to make significant contributions to the solar manufacturing sector while driving economic progress in the region.
