Gautam Solar expands Module Mounting Structure Manufacturing Capacity from 50 to 500 Metric tons per month

New Delhi, November 11th, 2021: Reputed home-grown solar manufacturer Gautam Solar recently expanded its production footprint by boosting the manufacturing Unit of Solar Module Mounting Structures by 10 times from 50 metric tons per month to 500 metric tons per month. Based in Haridwar, the state-of-the-art Unit will produce SMM (Solar Module Mounting) structures for solar pumps, solar power plants (Utility Scale & Rooftops) alongwith solar street lights, and high masts.

The Unit’s expansion will allow Gautam Solar to cater to the ambitious renewable energy targets of Government of India. The structures have been designed to withstand windspeed up to 150 Kms / hour, adding to robustness & longer life. The products have been designed by an experienced team of structural engineers and approved by top-known structural engineering institutes.

“Our expansion plans have been in the pipeline for a while, and we would like to thank our founder and visionary technocrat, Mr. B. K. Mohanka, who is an Ex-Professor, Engineering College for lending his expertise. Mr. Mohanka’s experience with fabrication & building structures for more complex commercial projects, like Airport Hangars, food silos, warehouses gave the technical grounding to Gautam Solar to expand its structure fabrication unit. It promises to be the ultimate one-stop solution for solar power plant & Solar Pump systems integrators where they can get Solar Panels & Structures both compatible with each other at a single place,” – said Gautam Mohanka, Managing Director, Gautam Solar.  

Expanding manufacturing capacity by 10 times from 50 metric tons per month to 500 metric tons per month is a huge jump for Gautam Solar as the company strives to achieve goals for the Government of India’s Renewable energy & net zero targets taken by Honorable PM Modi ji in COP26. This is another step in Gautam Solar’s vision for Horizontal integration & Atmanirbhar philosophy of Honorable PM, where Gautam Solar is manufacturing all components of Solar PV Systems inhouse viz. 250 MW Solar Module manufacturing (ALMM Approved), Solar Electronics (Inverters, Pump Controllers, Remote Monitoring units), Solar Storage (Lead Acid Battery, Li-Fe Battery, Tubular Gel Battery) and Solar Module Mounting Structures.

“Earlier Solar System Integrators faced the issue of non-compatibility between the Mounting Structures & Solar Panel. Also, standalone structure manufacturers did not have an understanding of solar and missed minute but important issues related to integration. Gautam Solar’s integrated solution & inherent knowledge base of solar industry helps in this. This way Solar SIs can execute and deliver their projects much faster as they are taking all components from a single manufacturer. ” – Said Gautam Mohanka, Managing Director, Gautam Solar. 

Gautam Solar intends to become the one-stop solution manufacturing all solar PV Components in India.
