Gujarat-based Solex Energy Ltd has announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with GMEE Solar and Wuxi Tidewinner Industrial International Co., Ltd for 800 MW capacity expansion with an investment of INR 700 million. This partnership will enhance Solex Energy’s module production capability to 1.5 GW by the end of September this year.
