The solar panel manufacturing project launched in Alat, Azerbaijan, is bringing a new dimension to the country’s energy transformation. The construction of three production facilities across a 23-hectare area is creating new manufacturing opportunities for Azerbaijan’s green energy industry. In the initial phase, the project is planned to have an annual solar panel production capacity of 3 GW, or 3,000 MW. This capacity creates significant industrial potential for Azerbaijan to develop into a regional production and export hub for solar energy technologies.

China’s Sichuan Sunsync Photovoltaic Technology is constructing three production facilities in the Alat Free Economic Zone. A 23-hectare site has been allocated for the project, with the facilities scheduled to be commissioned in stages in 2027. The annual production capacity will stand at 3 GW. This figure is equivalent to 3,000 MW. Alongside solar panels, the project also envisages the production of silicon crystals and various components. A significant share of the products is planned for export to global markets.

The scale of the project becomes clearer when the 3 GW production capacity is viewed against Azerbaijan’s energy landscape. The country is steadily implementing solar and wind power projects with........
