[SMM Photovoltaic: India's Uttar Pradesh YEIDA Zone Adding Combined 7GW of Solar Manufacturing Capacity] Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath recently handed land allotment letters to 17 companies in the YEIDA region, with two large-scale solar manufacturing projects drawing particular market attention.
CESC Green Power Ltd. will establish a 3GW solar cell and module manufacturing facility on approximately 100 acres, with a total investment of around ₹3,805 crore. Integrated Batteries India Pvt. Ltd. will set up a 4GW solar cell manufacturing facility on approximately 25 acres, with an investment of approximately ₹1,146 crore. Together, the two projects add a combined 7GW of new solar manufacturing capacity.
However, SMM believes that India is expected to remain partially reliant on imported supply chains in the near term — particularly in polysilicon, wafers, and certain core manufacturing equipment, especially in upstream materials and high-end process machinery.
