Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) is set to invest $18 billion to propel its activities in new energy and petrochemical expansion, signaling a significant move in the group's industrial transformation. The company is fast-tracking its solar production capabilities with the commissioning of a one-gigawatt HJT solar module manufacturing plant, with plans for expansion to 10 gigawatts by 2026. By completing engineering work across the value chain of solar production, including polysilicon, modules, glass, and POE, Reliance aims to boost its Ebitda by around $720 million. Additionally, Reliance is venturing into battery manufacturing using LFP technology for large-scale energy storage, with production set to start in 2026, eventually moving towards full cell manufacturing. The company has also acquired extensive land in the Kutch region for solar power generation and is developing a green hydrogen project in Kandla in partnership with Nel ASA. With a keen focus on ramping up capacities, Reliance's solar production facilities are designed for quick scale-up to 20 gigawatts annually. The battery division targets a production capacity of 30 gigawatts to ensure supply for its integrated energy projects. By embracing a fully integrated energy platform, Reliance aims to efficiently support green hydrogen production. The company's strategic efforts in solar power, battery technology, and green hydrogen underscore its commitment to sustainable energy solutions and a future-ready energy portfolio.
