Alpex Solar has won a Rs 450 million order from Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) to supply 2,000 solar-powered water pumps under the Magel Tyala Saur Krushi Pump scheme.
The pumps will be manufactured at Alpex Solar’s facility in Greater Noida, which has recently expanded to a 1,200 MW capacity.
Founded in 1993, Alpex initially specialized in the international trade of synthetic yarns and knitting machinery components before shifting to renewable energy. The company first entered wind power generation as an independent power producer (IPP) and later transitioned into manufacturing solar photovoltaic (PV) panels.

This new category, termed “ALMM List-II,” would mandate that all ALMM-compliant solar projects source cells from certified domestic manufacturers. Experts caution that this move could increase tariffs by 40-50 paise per unit, affecting project costs, timelines, and India’s renewable energy…
