Qcells Supplier Will Build $147M Manufacturing Facility in Cartersville
Hanwha Advanced Materials Georgia, Inc. (HAGA), a manufacturer of lightweight advanced materials for sustainable technology, will invest an estimated $147 million in a new manufacturing facility to supply the Qcells facility in Cartersville, GA.
HAGA will construct a new manufacturing facility located at Highland 75 Corporate/Industrial Park, a Georgia Ready for Accelerated Development (GRAD) certified site in the City of Cartersville.
The news follows Qcells’ announcement in January that it would spend more than $2.5 billion to expand its solar module manufacturing operations in Georgia. “Qcells is doubling down on building a complete, domestic solar supply chain, and this recent investment is critical to making that happen,” said HG Park, president of Qcells North America.
A subsidiary of Hanwha Group, HAGA will supply Qcells with encapsulant film, used in solar cells to ensure long-term panel durability. HAGA reportedly will be the only company in the U.S. manufacturing encapsulant film.
