India downgrades PV module exports
Indian solar module and cell exports decreased 16% year-over-year (YoY) to $1.5 billion (~₹129.4 billion) in 2024 from $1.8 billion (~₹152 billion), according to recent data published by the Department of Commerce. [pdf]FAQS about India downgrades PV module exports
Does India have a decline in solar cells & module imports?
India has recorded a decline in solar cell and module imports by 20% and 57%, respectively, during the first eight months of the 2024-25 fiscal year, according to a report by analytics services provider Rubix.
Will India's PV module exports decline in 2026?
However, India’s PV module exports to the US and Europe will likely decline starting from 2026 due to the operation of new domestic manufacturing plants in these regions.
Why are Indian manufacturers exporting solar modules?
Despite dependencies on imports for photovoltaic cells and wafers, Indian manufacturers are increasingly exporting solar modules. Government initiatives like the Production-Linked Incentive scheme are boosting local production.
Are India's solar modules oversupply risks?
India's solar module production has surged to 100 GW, but a report by SBI Capital Markets warns of potential oversupply risks. With the US reducing incentives for solar projects, exports have declined, raising concerns about domestic overproduction.
Which Indian solar module manufacturers are planning to expand their production capacity?
Additionally, several Indian solar module manufacturers announced plans to expand their manufacturing capacities. For example, solar module manufacturer Gautam Solar planned to double its annual module production capacity to 2GW by the end of next year through an investment of INR1.5 billion (around US$17 million).
How much did India export solar cells and modules in 2022?
Imports of solar cells and modules stood at ₹21,850 crore in 2022. India exported solar PVs and modules worth ₹4,640 crore in 2022.

What is a 440w solar panel?
Built with a durable dual-glass structure, this 440W solar panel offers enhanced weather resistance, extended lifespan, and improved protection against potential-induced degradation (PID).
How much power does a double-glass half-cut module produce?
The load capacity of glass has improved, the risk of hidden cracks in the cell and glass breakage is reduced, and the hail resistance level increased. It said the double-glass half-cut modules offer power outputs of 440 W, 445 W, 450 W, 455 W, and 460 W. The modules measure 1,762 mm x 1,134 mm x 30 mm and weigh 24.5 kg.
How many volts is a 440 watt panel?
The open-circuit voltage varies from 39.85 V for the 440 W panel to 40.65 V for the 460 W version, according to the manufacturer. It said the short-circuit current ranges from 14.03 A to 14.31 A. The operating ambient temperature ranges from -40 C to 85 C and the maximum system voltage is 1,500 V. The temperature coefficient is -0.29%/C.
