Emmvee Energy Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Emmvee Photovoltaic Power Limited, has commenced operations of a new 2.5 GW solar module manufacturing line at its facility in Bengaluru. The commissioning took place on 20 December 2025 and forms part of the company’s ongoing capacity expansion programme, increasing its aggregate solar module manufacturing capacity to 10.3 GW.

The newly commissioned module line is located at Unit VI in Sulibele, Hoskote Taluk, Bengaluru, Karnataka. The company stated that commercial operations at the unit began on the same day as commissioning, marking the completion of the project within the planned timeline.

The facility, designated as Unit VI, is separate from the company’s other manufacturing facilities in Dabaspet, which house their solar cell manufacturing and older module lines. While Emmvee produces Mono PERC modules, this new expansion is heavily focused on TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) technology. The industry is shifting away from Mono PERC because TOPCon cells offer higher efficiency (better performance in low light/high heat) without a massive increase in manufacturing cost.

This module line likely complements their recently commissioned 2.5 GW TOPCon Cell Line at Dabaspet (commissioned earlier in 2024/2025), allowing them to control quality from the “cell” stage to the final “module” stage.

The expanded capacity is necessary to fulfill a reported order book of over 5 GW, which includes contracts from major Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and government bodies like NTPC.

This 2.5 GW line is just “Phase 1” of a larger aggressive roadmap. They aim to reach 16.3 GW of module capacity and nearly 9 GW of cell capacity by FY 2028. Future expansions are planned for the ITIR Phase II region in Bengaluru.
