Delhi-based Jakson Engineers, a subsidiary of Jakson Group, has announced an investment of over ₹80 billion (~$930.23 million) to establish a 6 GW integrated solar manufacturing facility at Maksi Phase II in Madhya Pradesh.
The project, spread across 110 acres, will be executed in two phases. Site activities are scheduled to begin within 15 days, with Phase I involving the establishment of 3 GW of solar module capacity and 3 GW of solar cell capacity at a cost of around ₹20 billion (~$232.56 million).
Phase II will add 6 GW of wafer manufacturing capacity along with an additional 3 GW each for modules and cells, with over ₹60 billion (~$697.67 million) in investment.
The first modules from the plant are expected to roll out by May 2026, with solar cells following in September of the same year.
Madhya Pradesh was selected for the project due to its central location, strong infrastructure, and renewable energy-friendly policies.
Recently, Jakson Green won Solar Energy Corporation of India’s auction to supply 85,000 tons per annum of green ammonia under the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition program (Mode-2A-Tranche-I). The green ammonia will be supplied to Coromandel International in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh.
Jakson Green emerged as one of the top utility-scale solar engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) service providers in 2024, according to Mercom’s India Solar Market Leaderboard 2025 Report. Jakson Green was the leading EPC player with a market share of 20%, followed by Tata Power Solar with 13%.
In January this year, Jakson Green partnered with Blueleaf Energy, a Singapore-based renewable energy platform, to invest $400 million to develop 1 GW solar projects in Rajasthan. The project aims to generate over 1,800 GWh of renewable energy annually, meeting the energy needs of over 1.5 million Indian households.
