With 2024 marking the first steps to creating a domestic silicon-based manufacturing value-chain in the U.S., attention now focuses on how much module capacity has been brought online, and the timing and technologies underpinning the addition of new wafer and cell capacity. PV CellTech USA 2024 will feature the companies behind these new investments into U.S. manufacturing, what production equipment has been deployed or is on order, and how sites can be profitable in a global climate of depressed module pricing.

In addition to learning about wafer, cell and module facilities in the U.S., the conference will benchmark cell and module performances against the global mainstream offerings, identifying how – through technology differentiation – the U.S. can carve out a PV manufacturing niche that could be market competitive in the absence of generous subsidies.
