Singulus Technologies, a Germany-based developer of solar cell production equipment, has signed a contract to supply SpaceX with a turnkey heterojunction (HJT) solar cell production line. The company has put the order volume for this first line at over €60 million (~ $66.4 million) in an ad-hoc disclosure. The line is the first of several that Singulus has planned to deliver under a partnership with SpaceX. Mike Nicolls, a senior vice president at SpaceX, has said that the cells are to be used in its Starmind satellites. The first line is to be delivered in the first half of 2027. Production is then to be scaled to more than 100 GW of production equipment as SpaceX expands its satellite manufacturing in Bastrop, Texas, United States. SpaceX had already funded Singulus in March 2026, when the partnership began, and again in October 2026 through a subordinated secured loan.
