Dear Folks
The February special edition of Industrial Outlook, released alongside the vibrant energy of Intersolar India
in Gandhinagar, captures a defining moment in India’s clean energy journey. Our cover story, The Renewable Future
& The Technologies Powering Tomorrow, explores how next-generation solar, storage, digital intelligence, and
grid-interactive systems are transforming ambition into reality. As India accelerates toward its 500 GWnon-fossil fuel
based energy capacity by 2030 innovation across modules, inverters, storage, and intelligent control platforms will
determine the speed and sustainability of this transition.
In this edition, we also present a critical industry focus on Blackstart Capabilities of Inverter-Based Renewable
Energy Systems in the Indian Power Grid. As renewable penetration rises, ensuring grid resilience is paramount.

GREW Solar has raised ₹1,050
crore in a funding round led by Bay
Capital Investment Limited along
with two other institutional inves-
tors, the company announced re-
cently. The fresh capital will be
used to expand its solar cell manu-
facturing capacity from 3 GW to 8
GW at its Narmadapuram facility in
Madhya Pradesh.
The integrated solar PV module
manufacturer had earlier secured
₹300 crore from investors including
Vijay Kedia and Rohit Kothari of
GeeCee Holdings.
According to the company, the
latest investment will help strength-
en operations and support its strate-
gic expansion plans as it moves
toward becoming a fully integrated
solar manufacturing player.
Vinay Thadani, CEO and Director
of GREW Solar, said the funding
underscores investor confidence in
the company’s manufacturing capa-
bilities and growth strategy. He
added that the capital infusion will
accelerate
capacity
expansion,
enhance operational efficiencies,
and drive technological advance-
ments.
GREW SOLAR RAISES ₹1,050 CRORE TO BOOST
CELL MANUFACTURING CAPACITY
12 | February 2026 | www.industrialoutlook.in
India installed a record 36.6 GW of
solar capacity in 2025, nearly 43%
more than in 2024, according to
Mercom India's Q4 and Annual
2025 India Solar Market Update.
Large-scale solar projects, includ-
ing open access installations, repre-
sented nearly 81% of total
addi-
tions, while rooftop solar made up
over 19%. The large-scale solar
installations were 29.5 GW, up 31%
year-over-year. They were led by
Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharash-
tra.
The record annual solar installa-
tions reflect strong demand and
steady execution despite ongoing
challenges, said Raj Prabhu, CEO
of Mercom Capital Group. “Curtail-
ment has emerged as the most press-
ing issue, particularly in solar-hea-
vy states,” he added, noting the
upcoming ALMM-II deadline is
creating uncertainty around cell
availability. “Equipment delays and
a growing PPA backlog also weigh
on the market. Unless transmission
expansion and manufacturing scale
move in sync with capacity addi-
tions, growth will remain uneven in
2026,” Raj Prabhu said.
In the fourth quarter of the year,
India installed 9.9 GW of solar
capacity, representing quarterly and
annual growth of nearly 11% and
21%.
At the end of the year, the country
had nearly 136 GW of installed
solar capacity. In 2025, solar
accounted for 68% of its 57 GW of
newly added power capacity.
In
2025,
almost
44
GW
of
large-scale solar project tenders
were announced, down 45% on
2024, while 20.9 GW of projects
were auctioned, also below the prior
year level, falling by 57%.

Alight
has
acquired
two
large-scale solar projects in eastern
Finland from Finnish developer
3Flash, adding more than 200 MW
of planned solar capacity along with
an associated battery energy storage
system (BESS). The two projects,
with planned capacities of approxi-
mately 75 MW and 150 MW, are
situated in a region characterised by
comparatively lower local power
generation and reduced grid conges-
tion relative to other parts of the
country. Alight and 3 Flash will
jointly advance the projects until
they achieve ready-to-build status.
The 75 MW project is targeting grid
connection around 2028 and has
access to an existing nearby connec-
tion point to the Finnish transmis-
sion system operator, Fingrid. Addi-
tionally, the site has secured a
building permit for a 30 MW BESS.
The 150 MW project is expected to
connect to the grid through a
planned expansion of a Fingrid
substation, which is anticipated
around 2030. Following this trans-
action, Alight’s large-scale solar
and storage development pipeline in
Finland has exceeded 1 GW.
In February 2026, Alight secured
£34 million in portfolio financing
from SEB to develop and operate
behind-the-meter solar installations
for
commercial
and
industrial
customers in UK. The financing
facility supports a portfolio exceed-
ing 50 MWp, with projects sched-
uled for commissioning by 2027. I

ly produced cells, has reinforced
the company’s push toward deeper
vertical integration through its
planned HJT-focused manufactur-
ing facility.
Alignment with National Solar
Missions
Programs such as PM-Surya Ghar
Muft Bijli Yojana are accelerating
rooftop adoption, increasing de-
mand for high-efficiency, space-
optimised modules suited for urban
installations. Similarly, the PM-
KUSUM scheme is shaping the
development of decentralised solar
solutions for the agricultural sec-
tor.
The Production Linked Incentive
(PLI) scheme is further encourag-
ing the transition from legacy
Mono PERC toward advanced
N-type technologies like TOPCon
and HJT by incentivising higher
efficiency manufacturing.
Broader Manufacturing Impli-
cations
Import duties on solar components
are strengthening the case for
domestic manufacturing across
modules, inverters, and storage
systems. At the same time, evolv-
ing grid stability requirements are
driving the integration of smart
electronics, IoT connectivity, and
AI-led optimisation within invert-
ers and BESS.
Long-Term Perspective
Collectively, these policy frame-
works are accelerating Loom’s
evolution toward advanced manu-
facturing, domestic value creation,
and next-generation technology
adoption ensuring the company
remains aligned with India’s re-
newable expansion goals and long-
