Written summary
Goldi Solar is an Indian module manufacturer headquartered in Surat, Gujarat, founded in 2011 by Bharat Bhut and Ishver Dholakiya. It appears on Bloomberg New Energy Finance's bankable Tier 1 list and is currently India's largest solar PV module producer, with annual manufacturing capacity of roughly 15.2 GW and further expansion plans targeting FY2028. Resun Solar is a Chinese manufacturer based in Changzhou, Jiangsu, operating for about two decades, with annual capacity variously reported between roughly 1 and 5 GW and a sales network spanning 20 to 80 countries depending on the source, but it does not currently appear on published BNEF Tier 1 lists. On institutional footprint and verified production scale, Goldi Solar holds the stronger position.
Both brands serve residential rooftop, commercial and utility-scale segments. Goldi Solar runs a broader technology mix, still producing PERC modules alongside a newer bifacial TOPCon line (such as the HELOC Plus G12 series, up to 705 W with efficiency around 22.7 percent), giving buyers a choice between cost-driven legacy technology and higher-output modules. Resun Solar has moved almost entirely to TOPCon cells, offering panels from roughly 420 to 590 W with average efficiency near 22.3 percent, making its catalog narrower but technologically consistent.
For a buyer prioritizing verified bankability and manufacturing scale, particularly on bank-financed projects, Goldi Solar is the safer default. Resun Solar remains a reasonable option where a focused, competitively priced TOPCon lineup is the main requirement, though the absence of a current Tier 1 listing may limit its eligibility for certain institutional tenders.
