Fujiyama Power Systems Limited, a leading provider of rooftop solar solutions in India, has announced the planned commissioning of its 1 GW solar cell manufacturing plant at Dadri, Uttar Pradesh. The facility was inaugurated by Santosh Kumar Sarangi, Secretary, Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), and Rajesh Kulhari, Joint Secretary, MNRE.

The Dadri solar cell plant is aligned with Fujiyama’s existing manufacturing footprint. The Company currently operates a total solar panel manufacturing capacity of 1.6 GW, of which 1.2 GW is located at Dadri. The newly added 1 GW solar cell capacity will be fully utilised for captive consumption.

The establishment of in-house solar cell manufacturing strengthens Fujiyama’s supply-chain security, reduces dependence on imported solar cells and enhances cost control. This integration provides the Company with a competitive advantage in delivering solar cell-to-rooftop solar solutions. The facility will manufacture Mono PERC Domestic Content Requirement (DCR) solar cells, enabling Fujiyama to cater to consumer demand linked to government subsidy programmes.

Commenting on the commissioning, Pawan Kumar Garg, Chairman and Joint Managing Director, said, “The commissioning of our solar cell manufacturing facility at Dadri marks an important step in strengthening Fujiyama’s manufacturing integration. The project has been completed within six months, significantly faster than typical industry timelines, and has also been executed with savings against the originally budgeted cost. By bringing solar cell production in-house, we are improving visibility and control across the value chain, reducing reliance on imported cells and enhancing supply reliability for our solar panel operations. As our business is primarily focused on the domestic market with negligible export exposure, this integrated facility also insulates us from global trade uncertainties and tariff-related disruptions. I congratulate the entire Fujiyama team on the successful commissioning of the plant. This facility supports our objective of building Indian manufacturing capabilities and positions Fujiyama to profitably scale end-to-end solar solutions across India.”

The manufacturing facility has been completed with a total investment of Rs 3 billion, funded through a mix of internal accruals and debt.
