The facility is expected to manufacture multiple varieties of solar equipment, which will include DuraFlex modules able to bear up to 8,000Pa mechanical load, intellectual modules with integrated ‘smart’ technology, ‘EzBox’ configured with three junction boxes, and Twin-Glass modules for specialised roof projects.
