Loom Solar has secured an additional land allotment from the Government of Uttar Pradesh. The company has been allotted a 33,400 sq m (approximately 8.25 acres) plot at Industrial Model Land Corporation (IMLC), Meerut. The allotment was formalised at Lok Bhawan, Lucknow, in the presence of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Industrial Minister Nand Gopal ‘Nandi’ Gupta.

This new land parcel is independent of Loom Solar’s existing 7.5-acre facility in Kosi, Uttar Pradesh, where a 1.2 GW solar module manufacturing unit is currently under development. Together, these two facilities significantly expand Loom Solar’s manufacturing footprint in the state, positioning Uttar Pradesh as a key hub in India’s domestic solar supply chain.

The Meerut facility is dedicated to solar module manufacturing and will enable the company to establish a high-throughput production line, complementing the ongoing capacity build-out at Kosi. Operating as independent units, both facilities will support Loom’s multi-GW manufacturing roadmap and help address India’s rapidly growing solar demand, aligned with the national target of achieving 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030.

Commenting on the development, Amod Anand, Co-Founder and Director, Loom Solar, said, “India’s energy independence will be built in factories, aligned to its policies and resolve. This land allotment by the Government of Uttar Pradesh — a separate, dedicated facility at IMLC Meerut — strengthens our manufacturing backbone across both solar modules and BESS solutions. Alongside the 1.2 GW Kosi plant, it gives Loom Solar the infrastructure to meet India’s multi-GW demand trajectory with fully indigenous capacity. We are grateful to the UP government for their decisive support, and we remain committed to translating that trust into jobs, output, and energy security for the nation.”

Loom’s expansion aligns closely with national initiatives such as Aatmanirbhar Bharat, the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, ALMM regulations, and Domestic Content Requirements (DCR). By strengthening domestic manufacturing, the company aims to reduce India’s reliance on imported solar modules.

Beyond modules, Loom Solar is scaling its BESS portfolio for both utility-scale and distributed applications, addressing grid stability challenges as renewable energy adoption accelerates. The Meerut facility will provide the flexibility to integrate energy storage manufacturing into its long-term roadmap, positioning the company as a comprehensive clean energy solutions provider.

The dual-plant strategy across Kosi and Meerut is expected to generate thousands of direct and indirect employment opportunities across engineering, manufacturing, logistics, and ancillary sectors. It also reflects Uttar Pradesh’s growing attractiveness as a destination for large-scale industrial investments.
