Two new benefits of the new US law for Heliene and PV Hardware
Heliene, a Canadian manufacturer of cells and panels, is launching the construction of a new 1 gigawatt plant in the United States to take advantage of the new law.
It currently has a capacity of
1,100 MW in operation or under construction: 450 MW of photovoltaic panels in the United States and 250 MW in Canada. A new production site is under construction in Minnesota, which is nearing completion and will supply 400 MW.
The company is currently working at full capacity until 2024.
