Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has inaugurated Avaada Group's 1.5 GW solar module manufacturing gigafactory in Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

The foundation stone was also laid for Avaada Electro's five GW integrated solar module manufacturing unit at Ecotech, Greater Noida. The 1.5 GW photovoltaic (PV) module facility in Dadri was constructed in just 3.5 months and is now fully operational, producing advanced TOPCon N-Type bifacial glass-to-glass PV modules. These modules feature multi-busbar configurations (16 to 24 busbars) to enhance efficiency.

The facility has a production capacity of 1.2 GW for M10 modules and 1.5 GW for G12 modules, with 5,800 modules produced daily. Avaada's upcoming five GW integrated facility in Greater Noida, spread over 50-plus acres, will manufacture advanced solar cells with industrial-scale efficiency. This project is set to create over 3,000 employment opportunities, while it is set to obtain international certifications like BIS, IEC, and UL. 

The CM stated, "This initiative not only strengthens our state's contribution to renewable energy but also drives employment and supports our vision of a USD 1 trillion economy."
