Jakson Engineers, a subsidiary of Jakson Group, has unveiled plans to build a massive 6 GW integrated solar manufacturing facility in Madhya Pradesh, committing an investment of more than Rs 8,000 crore. The upcoming complex at Maksi Phase II is set to become the state’s largest solar manufacturing project.
Spread over 110 acre, the facility will be developed in two stages. The first phase, involving an outlay of nearly Rs 2,000 crore, will add 3 GW of solar module and 3 GW of solar cell production capacity. The initial rollout of modules is targeted for May 2026, with cell production to follow a few months later in September.
The second phase, requiring over Rs 6,000 crore, will significantly scale operations by adding a 6 GW wafer unit along with an additional 3 GW each of module and cell capacity. This will position the project as one of the most comprehensive solar manufacturing setups in the country.
The initiative reflects Jakson Group’s integrated approach to the solar value chain, combining manufacturing, engineering-procurement-construction (EPC), project development, and operations and maintenance (O&M). The model is designed to enhance efficiency, lower costs, and strengthen India’s solar self-reliance.
Madhya Pradesh was selected as the site for its central geography, strong infrastructure network, and supportive renewable energy ecosystem. Beyond strengthening India’s clean energy base, the project is expected to boost regional growth by generating over 1,000 jobs during the construction stage and around 1,400 permanent positions once operations commence.
With this move, Jakson Engineers is poised to play a pivotal role in advancing India’s renewable energy manufacturing capabilities and reinforcing the nation’s position in the global solar industry.
