Solar firms seek German tech as China curbs loom
New Delhi, Nov. 14 -- China's proposed restrictions on exports of solar manufacturing technologies and equipment have prompted Indian solar manufacturers to look for alternative suppliers, particularly in Germany, amid concerns over the reliability of Chinese supplies, according to three people familiar with the developments.
The proposed curbs may hurt India's ambitious plan to build a domestic solar manufacturing ecosystem, including the projected 100 gigawatts (GW) of capacity for wafers, ingots and polysilicon by the end of this decade. About 30 GW of wafer and ingot capacity is currently in the pipeline. The draft norms cover technology and equipment used in manufacturing polysilicon, thin wafers and advanced solar cells based on TOPCo...
