Waaree Energies Limited India and GT Advanced Technologies have announced their plan to enter into an agreement for the development of technology and manufacture of products in the solar sector.
Under this agreement, the companies plan to develop and deliver to the Indian market innovative solar products incorporating GT Advanced Technologies' patented Merlin� interconnect system. By integrating this innovative technology with Waaree's proven expertise in the cost effective manufacturing of high quality solar panels, the two companies will enable the manufacturing of "Made in India" solar panels with form-factors that uniquely address the Indian market's diverse needs that range from multi-megawatt solar farms to low cost distributed power implementations. Utilizing GT's innovative Merlin technology, which will deliver lower costs and improved field reliability, Waaree plans to aggressively participate in the Indian EPC/IPP markets and offer industry best-of-class LCOE metrics.
In addition to the India based cooperation, the companies are exploring the possibility of establishing a Waaree run module factory in the US to deliver "Made in the US" Advanced Technology Modules to the US market. This will enable GT's US based advanced Technology Module customers to seamlessly transition from pilot production in GT's Merlin� Technology Center in California to the high volume factory.
