Solex Energy (India) partnered with Malaysia's TT Vision to bring solar manufacturing automation, technology access, and engineer training to India.
In simple terms, Solex wants to use advanced Malaysian factory automation and training from TT Vision to build solar panels faster and better. This will help the company to scale up their business and make their manufacturing world-class.
What’s going on: as part of the MoU, TT Vision will provide specialised technical training to Solex engineers at its facility in Penang, Malaysia, and at its upcoming operations in India.
Solex will get special priority to use TT Vision's best automatic technology. This access will help it test new ideas, quickly launch new solar products, and constantly make its factory processes better.
Zoom out: as of June 2025, India's operational solar module capacity has reached approximately 120 GW and solar cell capacity is at around 29.3 GW, reflecting huge increases of 216% and 344% respectively since 2022.
This push is critical because India still heavily relies on imports for the upstream components like polysilicon and wafers.
India's projected annual solar manufacturing capacity shows a substantial increase across all four key components from 2025 to 2030, culminating in Modules reaching 160 GW, Cells reaching 120 GW, and both Wafers and Polysilicon reaching 100 GW by 2030.
