Bluebird Solar has secured a 278 MW solar module supply order from Bridge & Roof Company for two renewable energy projects of SJVN.

The projects comprise a 133 MW solar facility in Khavda, Gujarat, and a 145 MW project in Nawa, Rajasthan.

As part of the contract, Bluebird will supply high efficiency 600 Wp M10R N-Type TOPCon dual glass bifacial modules for the two projects.

The Delhi-based company operates a 2.5 GW solar module manufacturing facility at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

Bluebird plans to establish a 2.5 GW solar cell manufacturing capacity, along with wafer and ingot manufacturing facilities. The company also plans to expand into battery energy storage systems.

In July, Bluebird bagged an order from NTPC Renewable Energy to supply 439.35 MWp of solar modules for the public sector enterprise’s solar projects in Lalitpur district in Uttar Pradesh.

India added around 119 GW of solar module manufacturing capacity and over 9 GW of solar cell manufacturing capacity in 2025, according to the State of Solar PV Manufacturing in India 2026 report by Mercom India. As of December 2025, the country’s cumulative module manufacturing capacity stood at around 210 GW and cell manufacturing capacity at about 27 GW.

The rapid expansion in India’s module manufacturing capacity has been driven by residential rooftop targets, the growth of large utility-scale project pipelines, the implementation of the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) framework, and government initiatives such as the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana and PM KUSUM.

India’s solar module capacity under the ALMM-I list rose to over 200 GW and cell capacity to over 31 GW in July. With the ALMM mandates, the government aims to create a self-reliant solar manufacturing ecosystem. It also plans to introduce the ALMM-III mandate for ingots and wafers from June 2028.
