Last month, Heliene launched a new residential module, the 108HC All-Black, comprising US-made polysilicon, ingots, wafers and solar cells. The modules were subject to a purchase agreement with Sunrun that coincided with the module’s market launch.
A recent deal between Heliene and US producer, Stewart Glass, means Heliene can now offer a fully domestically-produced module to its US customers.
Heliene has two solar module manufacturing facilities in the US, able to produce a combined annual capacity of 1.3GW. It employs more than 500 people.
