Avaada Electro Limited, the solar PV manufacturing arm of Avaada Group, has taken a major step forward at its integrated solar manufacturing facility in Butibori, Nagpur, by advancing its 6 GW high-efficiency N-Type TOPCon solar cell line. The first 3 GW production line is now operational, with the remaining capacity currently being ramped up.
The Nagpur facility features advanced N-Type TOPCon technology capable of delivering cell efficiencies of up to 25.5% under standard test conditions. This is supported by 16-busbar and 18-busbar architectures, designed to boost power density, enhance reliability and improve overall energy yields.
The new line forms part of Avaada’s broader manufacturing roadmap. The company currently operates 8.50 GW of N-Type TOPCon glass-to-glass module capacity across Nagpur and Dadri and plans to add another 5.10 GW, taking total module capacity to 13.60 GW.
Avaada is also progressing towards adding an additional 6 GW solar cell line at Greater Noida, which will bring its total solar cell capacity to 12 GW. As part of its backward integration strategy, the company is planning 3 GW of ingot and wafer capacity at Nagpur.
This integrated N-Type TOPCon solar cell line is aimed at strengthening supply chain resilience, improving operational efficiency, reducing logistics costs and accelerating localisation across the solar value chain. The latest development further consolidates Avaada Group’s position as an integrated energy transition company with interests spanning renewable power generation, solar PV manufacturing, green hydrogen and derivatives, energy storage and pumped storage.
Avaada Energy currently has a renewable energy portfolio of over 17.70 GWp, including more than 7.20 GWp operational capacity and about 10.50 GWp under construction, supporting India’s energy transition, domestic manufacturing push and broader decarbonisation goals.
Leadership Comment
Vineet Mittal, Chairman and Whole-Time Director, Avaada Electro Limited, stated, 
“With the establishment of our 6 GW solar cell factory at Butibori in Nagpur, Avaada is actively contributing towards India’s green industrial age and complete technology independence. This facility is our definitive pledge to the nation – a localized manufacturing ecosystem engineered to minimise foreign import dependencies in an era of de-globalization, accelerate our economic trajectory, and position India at the absolute vanguard of the global energy transition.”
“This factory represents far more than industrial infrastructure; it is a sustainable, co-located complex built on the values of indigenous ingenuity and environmental stewardship. We are not just scaling production; we are aiding a sustainable future where homegrown innovation dictates the global clean energy roadmap, anchoring India’s position as a green superpower. As India’s AI-driven digitization and data infrastructure scale at far greater pace, the demand for power that is clean and always on will only intensify, and facilities like Butibori ensure that this next wave of growth is built on a foundation of dependable, indigenous clean energy. This embodies the essence of Atmanirbhar Bharat – a strategic signal to the global market that India is ready to dictate the future of renewable energy,” added Vineet.
