INA Solar Partners with US-Based Caelux in 3 GW Agreement; Targets 29% Module Efficiency by 2028
Insolation Energy Limited (INA Solar), through its subsidiary Insolation Green
Energy Private Limited, has entered into a five-year strategic partnership with
US-based Caelux Corporation for the commercialisation of 3 GW of
advanced solar modules integrating Caelux’s proprietary Energy Producing
Glass technology with INA Solar’s N-Type TOPCon platform.
The collaboration aims to develop high-efficiency Hybrid-Tandem™ solar
modules, with commercial production targeting module efficiency of up to
29% by 2028. The technology combines TOPCon solar cells with a
Perovskite-based power-generating glass layer designed to boost energy
generation, increase energy density and reduce the levelized cost of
electricity (LCOE). The companies will work together on technology
validation, manufacturing readiness and applicable regulatory approvals,
including ALMM requirements.
Commenting on the partnership, Manish Gupta, Chairman, Insolation
Energy Limited, said, “This collaboration marks an important milestone for
INA Solar. By combining advanced Perovskite technology with our TOPCon
manufacturing capabilities, we aim to accelerate the development of high-
efficiency solar modules and contribute to India’s renewable energy
ambitions.”
Vikas Jain, Managing Director, Insolation Energy Limited, added, “The
partnership strengthens our focus on building an integrated solar
manufacturing ecosystem. We remain committed to innovation, advanced
technology and delivering high-performance solar solutions.”
Scott Graybeal, CEO, Caelux Corporation, said, “Our partnership with INA
Solar is an important step towards bringing next-generation solar technology
into commercial production at scale in India. With this agreement, Caelux’s
global contracted volume with module manufacturers exceeds 25 GW
validating Caelux’s technology and market approach.”Vish Iyer, Managing Director, India & West Asia, Caelux Corporation, said,
“Integrating Energy Producing Glass with TOPCon technology represents a
significant step towards the Indian market benefiting from ultra-high power
density solar modules.”
INA Solar currently operates three solar module manufacturing facilities in
Jaipur, Rajasthan, with a combined annual capacity of 5.5 GW. The
company is also developing a 4.5 GW TOPCon solar cell manufacturing
facility and an 18,000 MTA aluminium frame manufacturing facility in
Narmadapuram, Madhya Pradesh. Its product portfolio includes TOPCon and
Mono PERC modules ranging from 500 Wp to 635 Wp, along with EPC
services. The company also has an Independent Power Producer (IPP)
portfolio of approximately 400 MW.
Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Jaipur, Rajasthan, Insolation Energy
Limited is listed on the NSE and BSE. The company has a presence across
more than 250 districts, serves over 40,000 customers and works with a
network of 1,000+ channel partners.
Headquartered in Baldwin Park, California, Caelux Corporation is a global
leader in Perovskite solar technology. Its proprietary Energy Producing Glass
technology transforms the top glass of solar modules into an additional
power-generating layer increasing power density and improving solar project
economics.
