India plans to commission at least 100GW of solar power plants by 2030

    On June 28, India’s richest man Mukesh Ambani revealed that he is preparing to enter the new energy business. Its subsidiary Reliance Industries will invest US$8.1 billion in the next three years to build Solar Panels And Batteries energy, energy storage, and A giant factory for electrolyzers and fuel cells.

    The company has developed an aggressive and comprehensive plan to produce key components that span the solar supply chain, advanced energy storage, hydrogen production, and fuel cells.

    Ambani said that the company plans to invest US$8.1 billion to build four super factories, including a large-scale photovoltaic module factory, an advanced energy storage battery factory, an electrolyzer factory for producing green hydrogen, and a plant that converts hydrogen energy into power. Fuel cell factory. At present, the construction of a comprehensive factory in Jamnagar, Gujarat, India has begun. The solar super factory will cover the polycrystalline silicon ingot-wafer-cell industry chain.

    "Our goal is to establish and put into production at least 100GW of solar energy by 2030," Ambani said.

    For advanced energy storage plants, Reliance Industries of India is exploring new advanced electrochemical technologies that can be used in large-scale power grids. It will cooperate with leaders in the field of global battery technology to achieve all-weather power supply through the combination of power generation, storage and grid.

    The electrolyzer factory will produce modular electrolyzers, which will be used to produce green hydrogen energy for domestic use and global sales.
