French startup Holosolis, a spinoff of EIT InnoEnergy, has revealed plans to build a module manufacturing facility in Hambach, near Sarreguemines, in northwestern France.
The location is the same as that of a now-abandoned factory project by Norwegian solar module manufacturer REC. It originally planned to build a 4 GW heterojunction panel factory there.
