The integrated cell and module setting up plant is planned to have an initial 5GW of solar cell as well as module setting up capacity. The framework contract was signed with the Yangyang Economic Development Zone.

Talesun's last major module setting up growth, which amounted to 5GW of ability of sophisticated large-area wafer, half-cut module technology, came online in 2020 with a financial investment of around RMB2 billion (US$ 307 million). It includes very automated production lines as well as is located in Zibo City, Shandong province.

The company also took a problems cost of around US$ 56.4 million in 2020 on obsolete solar cell (1.7 GW) as well as module setting up (2.4 GW) manufacturing equipment in feedback to the fast sector change to larger-area wafers and also new module string density product packaging formats.

Additionally, Talesun undertook a significant retrofit of centers based at its Changshu head office with advanced cell and module production tools, including nameplate cell capability of 1.5 GW as well as module setting up capability of 2.5 GW.

A module assembly plant in Thailand with a nameplate ability of around 1.5 GW is likewise anticipated to be upgraded for larger-area wafer modules in 2021, after an upgrade of solar cell equipment in 2020.

The company did not disclose details concerning the capital investment needed or the timelines for the brand-new incorporated cell and module project.

Talesun additionally has plans for a 1GW heterojunction (HJ) manufacturing plant and also a 1GW N-type mono TOPcon facility.
