WorldOne Energies has launched a 1.2 GW solar module manufacturing line to produce its Supreme Series n-type TOPCon monocrystalline bifacial modules. These modules range from 525 Wp to 650 Wp and are built with 144 or 156 half-cut cells.
The new line is designed for speed and efficiency. According to the company, it operates 33 percent faster than standard Indian lines. This helps boost throughput and reduce lead times.
The facility also includes India’s largest chamber laminators. These can laminate more modules per cycle while meeting strict quality standards.
The Supreme Series modules offer efficiencies of up to 23.26 percent. They are suitable for residential, commercial, and utility-scale projects.
WorldOne Energies plans to expand its module capacity from 1.2 GW to 7 GW by 2027, and to 10 GW by 2030. The company also aims to build a 2 GW solar cell manufacturing facility, which could be scaled up to 5 GW in the future.
