Key Ideas
  • Reliance Industries is boosting its green initiatives with the commissioning of a solar panel manufacturing line and plans for battery storage production facilities.
  • The company is constructing 'giga factories' in Jamnagar, Gujarat, to produce PV modules, batteries, hydrogen electrolyzers, and fuel cells.
  • Reliance has made significant investments and acquisitions in the renewable energy sector, including acquiring stakes in firms like Sterling and Wilson Solar, Faradion, and REC.
  • The firm is aiming for a net zero plan by 2035 and has access to land for large-scale solar projects in the Kutch region of Gujarat.
Reliance Industries, a major conglomerate in India, is making significant strides in the renewable energy sector with its focus on solar manufacturing and AI-led data centers. The company recently announced the commissioning of its first solar panel manufacturing line, utilizing HJT technology for module production, with the capacity to expand up to 20 GW. Additionally, Reliance is establishing 'giga factories' in Jamnagar, Gujarat, covering a vast 5,000-acre site to produce PV modules, batteries, hydrogen electrolyzers, and fuel cells. The firm has also invested heavily in acquiring stakes in key players like Sterling and Wilson Solar, Faradion, and REC, signaling its commitment to green energy. Reliance has secured PLI incentives for solar PV manufacturing and energy storage, further bolstering its green energy initiatives. Despite some delays in operations, the company is progressing towards its goal of achieving a 30 GWh battery capacity. With plans to generate 150 billion units of electricity and a net zero target by 2035, Reliance is poised to be a major player in India's renewable energy landscape.
