Raana Semiconductors has announced that it has signed a preorder agreement with Swelect HHV Solar Photovoltaics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Swelect Energy Systems, for the supply of CZ12 ingot growers. The equipment will be deployed at Swelect HHV’s 1 GW ingot and wafer manufacturing facility.
Beyond equipment supply, Raana will hand-hold Swelect HHV team through process optimisation and process recipe development. Swelect HHV’s team will also be trained at our pilot facility, which will help them operate and maintain the growers with minimal downtime.
“Silicon ingot growth is the foundation of the solar value chain. Crystal quality, process stability, equipment uptime and yield at this first step carry through to wafer quality and cell efficiency downstream. They also decide how well the factory is utilised and whether it reaches its nameplate capacity,” stated Raana Semiconductors. “By building this capability in India on indigenous equipment, we aim to strengthen domestic manufacturing and reduce dependence on imported equipment.”
