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.

Advanced inverter technologies with grid-forming and blackstart capabilities are no longer optional they are essential

to building a stable, secure, and self-reliant power ecosystem.

This issue is further enriched with exclusive guest articles, Union Budget perspectives, expert interviews, press releases,

and key industry updates, reflecting the optimism and strategic clarity shaping the sector.

On behalf of the Industrial Outlook team, we extend our sincere gratitude to all exhibitors, EPC players, speakers,

panelists, distributors, and visitors for making our EPS Industry Connect Conference a remarkable success. Your

insights and participation continue to drive meaningful dialogue.

Most importantly, we thank our readers for your continued trust and support. Your belief inspires us to chronicle India’s

industrial and renewable energy transformation with purpose and commitment.

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%.

INDIA'S SOLAR INSTALLATIONS HIT RECORD

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

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-

term energy transition pathway.
