While the financial details of the orders were not disclosed, all four one-time supply contracts are scheduled for delivery in the next two years.
The supply order received by Waaree Solar Americas comes against the backdrop of the US government’s ongoing antidumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) investigations into crystalline silicon PV cells imported from India, Indonesia, and Laos.
On which Waaree said that it did not expect to incur additional duties on solar cell imports to the US following the US Customs and Border Patrol’s (CBP) AD/CVD investigation. The company said it was fully cooperating with authorities and working to ensure transparency and compliance.
Despite the uncertainty, Waaree Energies’ US arm, Waaree Solar Americas, recently signed a 599MW module supply deal with an independent power producer (IPP) in the US. The modules will be manufactured at Waaree’s Brookshire, Texas plant and are slated for delivery in 2026.
In late 2023, the firm unveiled US expansion plans under Waaree Solar Americas, committing up to US$1 billion to scale capacity there to 5GW by 2027. Currently, the manufacturer operates a 1.6GW solar module production facility in Texas and is in the process of expanding its capacity to 3.2GW. It also recently bought the US assets of struggling Swiss solar manufacturer Meyer Burger, which Waaree claims “further underscores our long-term commitment to the American solar sector and US production”.
The Mumbai-headquartered company has increased its annual solar module capacity to 14.2GW. Recently, Waaree acquired a 64% equity stake in power transformer manufacturer Kotsons. According to the company, Kotsons’ manufacturing capacity will support rising domestic and international demand for transformers. The acquisition brought Kotsons under Waaree’s fold as a subsidiary.
PV Tech has been running PV ModuleTech Conferences since 2017. PV ModuleTech USA, on 16-17 June 2026, will be our fifth PV ModulelTech conference dedicated to the U.S. utility scale solar sector. The event will gather the key stakeholders from solar developers, solar asset owners and investors, PV manufacturing, policy-making and and all interested downstream channels and third-party entities. The goal is simple: to map out the PV module supply channels to the U.S. out to 2027 and beyond.
