TP Solar operates India's largest single-location solar manufacturing plant

TP Solar operates India's largest single-location solar cell and module manufacturing plant in Tirunelveli, Tamil Nadu. With a capacity of 4.3 GW each for cells and modules, the facility has been designed with open spaces to accommodate future expansion.
