Amp Energy on Friday announced its foray into solar cells and modules manufacturing, unveiling its plan to set up a joint venture with Websol Energy Systems.
“Amp Energy India… has announced a joint venture (JV) with Websol Energy Systems Ltd for manufacturing and production of up to 1.2 GW monocrystalline PERC solar cells and modules,” a company statement said.
The production of monocrystalline PERC solar cells and modules would be in two phases of 600 MW each at Websol’s existing unit at Falta in West Bengal.
The company’s entry into manufacturing solar cells will help it to provide a better control over the supply chain for critical components, Amp Energy said.
