SWELECT Expands Solar Capacity, Boosts Sustainability
At RenewX 2025, SWELECT Energy Systems reaffirmed its leadership in India’s solar industry by unveiling an ambitious roadmap centered on advanced solar technologies, expanded manufacturing capacity, and a strong commitment to sustainability.
Speaking to mojo4industry, Uday Kamath, VP – Channel Sales, outlined SWELECT’s strategy to scale operations, strengthen its channel network, and deliver integrated renewable energy solutions.
Pushing Technological Boundaries
SWELECT showcased its latest Mono PERC and TOPCon modules, highlighting a leap in efficiency. “Our TOPCon modules, currently at 580 W, will soon scale up to 650 W,” Kamath said. These are produced at the company’s fully operational 1 GW facility, supporting its drive for quality and innovation.
Beyond modules, SWELECT also displayed ground-mounted and rooftop structures, along with AC/DC distribution boxes—underscoring its turnkey Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) capabilities.
Doubling Manufacturing Capacity
To meet rising demand, SWELECT is set to double its module production by adding another 1 GW line at its existing facility. Simultaneously, the company is expanding its Balance of System (BOS) manufacturing with new roll-forming equipment, aligning its structural offerings with growing project needs.
Strengthening EPC & IPP Footprint
SWELECT’s core businesses— module manufacturing, Independent Power Producer (IPP) projects, and EPC services—are seeing significant growth. While manufacturing has driven recent performance, the company is scaling up its presence in the group captive IPP segment and executing larger turnkey solar projects.
Expanding Channel Partnerships
With an expanding network of nearly 75 new channel partners added annually, SWELECT is deepening its market reach. “We’ve also appointed a national distributor and partnered with financial institutions to support our partners,” Kamath noted.
Embracing Sustainability
In alignment with environmental goals, SWELECT is proactively working on solar panel recycling in anticipation of evolving regulations. The company is collaborating with recyclers to establish a structured program that supports both ROHS compliance and circular economy principles.
Vision for FY2025
Looking ahead, SWELECT plans to tap into new regional markets and take on larger solar projects in the 15–20 MW range. A key focus is integrating solar, wind, and battery systems to deliver round-the-clock renewable energy. “We see a big opportunity in RTC (round-the-clock) solutions and are aligning our capabilities to meet future energy needs,” Kamath concluded.
