Fujiyama Power Systems Limited will be commissioning 2,000 MW solar panel manufacturing facility at Ratlam, Madhya Pradesh.

The Ratlam facility forms part of Fujiyama’s large-scale greenfield manufacturing expansion project, developed to strengthen the company’s integrated solar manufacturing capabilities. The facility has a planned manufacturing capacity of 2,000 MW each for solar panels, batteries and inverters.

The plant will initially operate at an annualised capacity of approximately 1,000 MW under a single-shift operation, with phased ramp-up planned. It is expected to move to double-shift operations and achieve full capacity utilisation by Q4 FY27.

With the commissioning of the Ratlam solar panel manufacturing facility, Fujiyama’s total solar panel manufacturing capacity has increased to 3,568 MW.

At the same facility, commissioning timelines for the power electronics and battery manufacturing capacities were delayed as the company incorporated the latest advancements in lithium-ion battery technology to ensure its products remain relevant and competitive in the evolving market. Certain geopolitical developments also impacted supply timelines during the execution phase.

With these factors now largely addressed, the inverter manufacturing line is expected to be commissioned in the first quarter of FY27, and the requisite machinery has already been received at the facility. Machinery orders for the battery manufacturing line have also been placed, with commissioning expected in the second quarter of FY27.

The Ratlam expansion further strengthens Fujiyama’s manufacturing footprint and supports its long-term strategy of increasing backward integration, improving supply-chain efficiencies and expanding manufacturing scale.

Pawan Kumar Garg, Chairman and Joint Managing Director, Fujiyama Power Systems Limited, said, “The commissioning of our solar panel manufacturing facility at Ratlam marks an important milestone in Fujiyama’s growth journey and manufacturing expansion strategy. This greenfield project strengthens our ability to serve the rapidly growing domestic rooftop solar market with higher manufacturing scale, improved operational efficiencies and greater control across the value chain.”
