India’s photovoltaic capacity exceeds 168 GW

Over 34 GW of new photovoltaic capacity in just eight months. India’s 2026 figures highlight the pace at which one of the world’s leading photovoltaic markets continues to expand, with total installed capacity exceeding 168 GW by the end of August. What makes this growth particularly significant is the variety of installations driving it. Ground-mounted projects continue to account for the largest share, while rooftop photovoltaics have already surpassed 32 GW and off-grid applications are also contributing to the expansion of the country’s photovoltaic sector.

Growth on this scale shows how a major photovoltaic market can develop through a wide range of applications. From building rooftops to larger-scale installations, Peimar offers photovoltaic technologies designed for different configurations, combining industry experience with the flexibility needed to meet the demands of a market that continues to add new capacity at a significant pace.
