First Solar has inaugurated its new vertically integrated solar manufacturing plant, in Tamil Nadu, India.
The facility has an annual expected capacity of 3.3 GW and produces the company’s Series 7 PV modules, developed at the company’s U.S. research and development centers and optimized for the India market.
Representing an investment of approximately $700M, which includes $500M in previously announced DFC financing, the facility is First Solar’s sixth operational factory.
“The inauguration of this landmark manufacturing facility and the launch of commercial shipments to customers in India is a crucial milestone in our journey to long-term and sustainable growth,” says Mark Widmar, CEO, First Solar. “The speed with which we were able to build and commission this facility is a testament to the policies of India’s Federal and the Tamil Nadu state governments.”
The factory, located in an area of high baseline water stress, is designed to minimize its impact on local resources and instead relies on tertiary-treated reverse osmosis water from the city’s sewage treatment plant and have zero wastewater discharge.

A couple of points:
Actually, there are 11.4 million deer hunters, 4.6 million use archery and 6.8 million use guns. It just takes a second to look this up, and doing so prevents one from spreading malicious lies.
Hunters don’t use not assault weapons, which are almost always chosen by mass murderers. No one with any sense objects to rifles being sold to hunters.
With each passing day, Trump’s rhetoric reveals to an even greater degree his cruelty, his vindictiveness, and most of all, his lack of understanding of the U.S. Constitution. The only thing he has on his side is his capacity to mirror the hate and ignorance of his MAGA base.
We used to be proud of our country.
I’ve been to Japan. They’re sharp people.
At the very least, they don’t have people stupid enough to indiscriminately shoot water all over a village because of a kitchen fire.
