India has one of the fastest-growing solar energy producers. Sunora Solar, a Surat-based solar panel manufacturer committed to making solar energy more accessible, has taken yet another step forward by announcing the launch of our next-generation G12R Solar Module for utility-scale projects at the prestigious Mercom India Renewables Summit 2025!
Mercom India is one of the top clean energy communicators and consulting firms. They have been organizing a flagship event, Mercom India Renewables Summit, where the industry leaders, policy makers, and clean energy experts gather to discuss the industry trends and exhibit innovative technology to meet the desired goals to improve India’s position in the renewable energy market.
This year, the Mercom India Renewables Summit 2025 took place in the Hyatt Regency in New Delhi on July 24th and 25th. The event had many highlights and insightful discussions. One of the highlights of the event was our launch of G12R solar modules that will be produced at our under-development 2 GW manufacturing facility in Kosamba, Gujarat.
What is a G12R Solar Module?
The G12R solar model is an innovative panel that offers better efficiency at a similar cost. The G12R model is based on the N-type TOPCon cell technology known for its efficiency. In this model, the N-type TOPCon solar cell wafer is cut into a rectangular shape to fit more cells in the single panel.
Our G12R solar panels will have an efficiency of 23% or more and an output of 640 WP. It is ideal for the utility-scale projects. While we have yet to announce the dimensions, it is likely to use the same size as the regular N-Type TOPCon solar panels.
The launch of this new product marks our commitment and development towards a vertically integrated solar solution. We aim to meet the needs of high-performance, cost-effective solar panels while adhering to international standards.
Best G12R solar modules will be produced at our 2 GW Kosamba Facility!
These new G12R solar panels will be produced at our 2GW manufacturing facility at Kosamba, Gujarat. This facility is under development and will be in action soon. This facility will be home to our G12R N-type TOPCon solar modules as well as other innovative solutions that we will be creating to align ourselves with India’s vision of reducing reliance on fossil energy. Our facility will be equipped with cutting-edge, latest, and automated technology to make efficient and budget-friendly solar panels.
What are the benefits of the G12R Solar Module?
The following are the benefits the users get by using G12R solar modules for the solar projects, especially at utility-scale.
Better efficiency
The G12R solar modules are designed to fit more solar wafers in the classic G12 solar panel modules. Therefore, there are more cells than in classic solar panels. Our G12R solar panel is made with the N-type TOPCon cells. This means there is a reduction in sunlight wastage and better efficiency. This solar panel will produce electricity with 23% or more efficiency.
Less space, more energy
The R in G12R refers to rectangular. This means that these solar panels will come with rectangular wafers to include more cells in the classic solar panel. But what does it mean for you? This changed configuration increases the number of cells present on the same panel. Therefore, more cells get sunlight exposure, leading to more electricity generation without any excessive cost or a larger solar panel.
Reduced BOS cost
BOS (Balance Of System) cost refers to the cost associated with the mounting structure, cabling, and installation fees associated with the solar panel for residential, commercial, and utility-scale projects. The core benefit of G12R is that it fits more solar cells in the classic solar panel. Therefore, you will be using the same number of panels with better efficiency and output. The BOS cost is similar, or reduced, for the output you’ll generate. You can switch your existing solar system to a similar number of solar panels or a lower number of panels based on your desired output.
Reduced degeneration rate
The G12R solar panel is made with N-type TOPCon technology. Therefore, the solar cells get extra protection and more sunlight exposure, leading to better efficiency. The N-type solar cells are known for their lower degradation rate. It increases the lifespan of the panel to 25-30 years. Therefore, you get better ROI on your utility-scale solar projects.
We will soon update our products, so stay tuned with Sunora Solar for the best, budget-friendly solar panels.
Conclusion
Sunora Solar launched its innovative G12R solar panel at the Mercom India Renewables Summit 2025. We will be creating the G12R solar panels made with N-type TOPCon technology with 23% efficiency at our under-development manufacturing facility at Kosamba, Gujarat. The key benefit of this solar panel is that it utilizes the same space as the classic solar panel but generates more energy. This innovation is our step towards vertical integration and making renewable energy more accessible and affordable to achieve India’s renewable energy goals. Therefore, it saves you BOS cost and lasts longer. Stay tuned with Sunora Solar for more updates.
FAQ
Which is the best solar panel module?
The best solar panels are those that produce more energy, take up less space, and are budget-friendly. The N-type TOPCon panels have been considered the best. However, the G12R checks all these criteria, becoming the best solar panel module in the market. Sunora Solar will soon make these panels available to you. So, stay tuned!
What is the efficiency of the G12R solar panels?
The G12R solar panels have an efficiency of 23% or more. The N-type cells have a slower degradation rate, making them last longer. Therefore, the G12R solar panel lasts for 25-30 years with higher efficiency to give you a better ROI.
Which is the most efficient solar panel for residential projects?
For rooftop and residential projects, TOPCon cells are better due to their efficiency and stronger structure. G12R solar panels are known for their durability and efficiency. They offer more energy within the same space, leading to reduced cost and better energy capacity.
