India has a unique demand for module technologies that need to balance the need for competitive pricing and advanced technologies that can reduce the levelized cost of energy.

While the rest of the world has adopted larger size modules (M10 and M12), bifacial, n-type, and TopCon, monocrystalline and polycrystalline modules still dominate the growing Indian market.

Solar installations surpassed 10 GW for the first time in 2021 since the inception of the National Solar Mission, and the government’s goal to install 280 GW of solar by 2030 will continue to drive demand.

In this discussion, stakeholders talked about the trends, expectations, and appetite of the Indian market for various module technologies and forecasted for the coming year.
