Saatvik Solar Industries Private Limited, a material subsidiary of Saatvik Green Energy Limited, is progressing its 2.4 GW solar cell manufacturing facility in Ganjam, Odisha, towards enlistment under the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) List-II.
The facility has an applied manufacturing capacity of 2,400 MW and is being developed to manufacture high-efficiency solar cells based on N-TOPCon technology. Saatvik’s ALMM List-II submission covers Monocrystalline Bifacial N-TOPCon G12R solar cell technology under the Domestic Content Requirement (DCR) category, with Model No. SS-NTP-210R-16BB-BF.
Subject to approval and enlistment by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), the facility will be eligible for deployment in projects that require compliance with applicable domestic sourcing requirements. The development is expected to strengthen Saatvik’s presence further upstream in India’s solar PV manufacturing value chain.
According to Prashant Mathur, CEO, Saatvik Green Energy, the facility’s progression towards ALMM List-II enlistment marks an important milestone in the company’s efforts to establish advanced and competitive domestic solar cell manufacturing capabilities. The company said its focus remains on technology, scale and manufacturing capabilities to support India’s renewable energy ambitions.
The Odisha facility forms part of Saatvik’s broader manufacturing expansion strategy, which focuses on high-efficiency solar cell and module technologies. The plant will manufacture N-TOPCon G12R cells, designed to deliver higher conversion efficiency and power output, supporting the industry’s shift towards higher-performance photovoltaic products.
Saatvik Green Energy currently has 4.86 GW of solar module manufacturing capacity and is expanding its capabilities across solar cells and modules as part of its long-term manufacturing roadmap. The company also has operations spanning utility-scale solar power generation and energy storage solutions.
The development comes as India continues to strengthen domestic solar manufacturing and reduce supply-chain dependence on imported components. Saatvik said the combination of domestic cell production, advanced technology and DCR-compliant manufacturing will support supply-chain resilience and contribute to the development of a technology-driven solar manufacturing ecosystem in the country.
