Alpex Solar bags Rs 65 crore MSEDCL order for solar pumps

Alpex Solar Limited has announced an order worth Rs 65 crore (excluding GST) from Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) for supplying off-grid direct current (DC) solar photovoltaic (PV) water pumping systems.

The company said the project comes under the Government of India’s Magel Tyala Saur Krushi Pump Yojana, which forms Component B of the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha Evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM) Scheme. The programme aims to support clean energy use in agriculture and reduce reliance on conventional power.

Under the contract, Alpex Solar will supply solar water pumping systems across multiple districts in Maharashtra. Execution is scheduled within 60 days as specified in the Letter of Empanelment.

The company operates across the renewable energy value chain, including solar PV module manufacturing, engineering procurement and construction (EPC), solar water pumps, Renewable Energy Service Company (RESCO) projects and international trading. Last month, Alpex Solar approved the expansion of its upcoming solar cell manufacturing facility in Kosi Kotwan, Uttar Pradesh, from 1.6 GW to 2.2 GW, adopting G12R tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) technology.
