Renewable energy financier Excelsior Energy Capital has signed a 2GW solar module supply agreement with Canadian-headquartered solar manufacturer Heliene.

Heliene has signed an agreement with solar cell manufacturer Suniva to source cells from the latter's manufacturing plant in the US.

Canadian solar PV module manufacturer Heliene has doubled the capacity of its Mountain Iron, Minnesota module production line to 300MW following an extra US$10 million investment into the facility.

Canadian PV manufacturer Heliene has secured US$170 million to grow its existing module assembly plant with two new 300MW lines.

US community solar developer Nexamp has signed a 1.5GW module supply deal with Canadian PV manufacturer Heliene to deploy at its community solar sites over the next five years.

Canadian solar manufacturer Heliene has announced plans to build around 1GW of solar module assembly and 1.5GW of solar cell production capacity in the US.

The IRS’ guidance on the domestic content tax bonus for solar projects under the IRA “makes it difficult for developers to attempt to access the 10% bonus ITC”, according to Martin Pochtaruk, president of North American solar PV manufacturer Heliene.

Earlier this week (14 June), White House officials and solar manufacturers sat down with one another to discuss how the Biden Administration could kickstart PV manufacturing via its recently enacted Defense Production Act (DPA).  

Canadian module manufacturer Heliene has seen unprecedented demand for its modules following the US Department of Commerce’s (DOC) decision to investigate alleged anti-dumping and circumvention (AD/CVD) by solar manufacturers in Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia and Cambodia, which continues to spread chaos across the US solar sector.
