[SMM PV News] GREW Solar Secures ALMM Approval for 3 GW G12R TOPCon Capacity

GREW Solar has received approval under India’s Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) for 3 GW of manufacturing capacity at its Dudu, Rajasthan facility. The approval covers its G12R bifacial n-type TOPCon modules, which feature efficiencies up to 23.14% and power output ratings of up to 635 W. Inclusion in the ALMM allows these modules to be deployed in government-mandated and open-access projects. The company claims the high-power G12R series can reduce module count by 6-8% per MW, lowering balance-of-system (BOS) costs like cabling and land. GREW plans to expand its total module capacity to 11 GW by late 2026 and is establishing an 8 GW cell facility in Madhya Pradesh.
