Adani Solar has crossed shipments of over 15,000 MW of solar modules across India and international markets. Out of this, 10,000 MW were deployed within the country and 5,000 MW exported overseas, with 70 percent made using India-manufactured solar cells. The company plans to increase its production capacity from 4,000 MW to 10,000 MW by the next financial year. This expansion supports India's renewable energy goals under the Make in India initiative and the Atmanirbhar Bharat vision.
Adani Solar has shipped more than 15,000 megawatts (MW) of solar modules to both domestic and international markets, becoming the first and fastest Indian manufacturer to reach this scale. Of the total, around 10,000 MW of modules have been installed across India, while 5,000 MW were exported to global markets. Company officials said this shipment equals 28 million solar modules, covering an area roughly similar to 7,500 football fields. Advertisement
Around 70 percent of these modules were produced using Adani's India-made solar cells, reflecting the company's contribution to the Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat initiatives. Adani Solar has announced plans to expand its current production capacity from 4,000 MW to 10,000 MW by the next financial year and aims to ship another 15,000 MW in the coming years to meet growing global demand.
The company remains the only Indian manufacturer included among the world's top 10 solar module producers, according to energy research firm Wood Mackenzie. The firm's latest report stated that India's solar module manufacturing capacity is expected to exceed 125 gigawatts (GW) by 2025-more than triple the domestic demand of around 40 GW. The report, titled Perfect Storm in the Indian Solar Supply Chain, noted that despite near-term challenges, India holds strong potential to emerge as a large-scale alternative to China's dominant solar supply network.
Adani Solar operates India's largest solar module distribution network, reaching over 550 districts through 35 exclusive channel partners. This structure helps ensure wide access to high-quality and locally produced solar products. Company representatives said that this accomplishment underlines Adani Solar's ongoing efforts to strengthen India's renewable energy framework and its focus on energy self-reliance.
According to company estimates, Adani Solar's shipments have powered about five million homes, created 2,500 green jobs, and helped avoid nearly 60 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions every year. The installed modules together stretch approximately 65,000 kilometres-enough to circle the Earth about one and a half times.
India's solar manufacturing sector has expanded rapidly in recent years, rising from 2.3 GW in 2014 to an estimated 100 GW by 2025. Over 100 domestic manufacturers are now active in the segment. During the first half of FY26, India's solar exports grew by 20 percent year-on-year to USD 668 million, driven mainly by demand from countries such as the United States, United Arab Emirates, Kenya, Hungary, and Iran.
Adani Solar also leads in the rooftop solar category, having supplied 1.78 GW of modules in the past year-enough to power around 594,000 homes. The company supplies about 54 percent of the modules used in the government's Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, which aims to deliver solar-powered electricity to 10 million households by 2027.
With over half of India's installed electricity capacity now generated from non-fossil fuel sources-five years ahead of its Paris Agreement target-the country continues to advance toward achieving 500 GW of clean energy capacity by 2030. Adani Solar's integrated manufacturing operations, covering ingots, wafers, modules, and related materials such as solar glass, EVA, and aluminium frames, continue to play a key role in supporting India's transition toward clean and sustainable energy.
