Goldi Solar has inaugurated India’s first AI-powered solar manufacturing plant. Located in Surat, Gujarat, the facility has a projected production capacity of 14 GW of clean energy.
The first AI-powered solar manufacturing plant
Notable specifications include high-speed automated stringers , capable of producing up to 10,000 solar cells per hour, increasing production while improving accuracy and reducing material waste.
On the other hand, the automated optical inspection ( AOI ) system uses AI to perform real-time quality control, detecting even microscopic defects that can go unnoticed with human inspection. This ensures that each manufactured solar cell meets the highest quality standards.
In the manufacturing process, pre-lamination has been automated. With the integration of an automatic EVA placement robot, the inconsistencies generated are reduced, improving efficiency and minimizing production time. In addition, a three-stage automatic laminator optimizes the durability and resistance of the solar panels, ensuring a longer lifespan of the products.
During the inauguration, Pralhad Joshi, Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy, India, expressed his satisfaction at seeing Indian companies leading the shift towards clean energy . He also said that this plant is an example of how India is adopting advanced technologies to meet the growing demand for solar energy and encourage local manufacturing of solar panels.
Goldi Solar’s new plant will contribute to India’s local content program , which seeks to encourage local production and reduce dependence on imports in the photovoltaic industry.
