A group of small and medium size solar PV module manufactures has formed an association “North India Module Manufacturer Association” (NIMMA).
NIMMA aims to promote and voice the concerns of the solar PV manufacturing segment in India.
NIMMA will act as an umbrella association for solar module manufacturers and will work towards maintaining a healthy business environment by providing necessary support to its members, according to the officials of the association.
NIMMA will assist its members to develop, promote and improve the product and manufacturing standards, joint marketing strategies and will take up the concerns of its members with the concerned authorities.
The Association will also work as a nodal platform for the development and process of scientific and economic research regarding development and manufacturing of solar PV module.
Manish Gupta, president, NIMMA, said, the existing solar associations in India are finding it difficult to cater to the needs of small and medium size solar modules manufacturers, who have some unique problems and issues. NIMMA is formed to address the issues faced by this group.
NIMMA is committed to promote solar energy by suggesting solar friendly policies and spreading awareness. NIMMA will also work closely with government authorities and with other national and international solar organizations in this regard.
The association will also organize and arrange meetings, seminars and workshops to promote and exchange views among member companies at regional and international levels.
NIMMA currently has 25 members representing solar modules manufacturing capacity of around 1000MW. The association is inviting memberships from prospective solar module manufacturers of North India.
