Solar energy is growing exponentially in the United States, a booming sector that is attracting substantial investment and technological innovation. This trend is supported by government initiatives and policies favoring renewable energies. However, the market faces challenges, particularly in terms of the supply chain and compliance with quality standards.
Waaree-Acciona Strategic Partnership
Waaree Energies, a key player in the solar market, recently announced the delivery of 850 megawatts (MW) of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules for various projects developed in the United States by Acciona Energia. This collaboration, far from being an isolated event, marks the start of a three-year agreement to supply a further 1.5 gigawatts (GW) of solar modules for other US projects between 2024 and 2026.
Achievements and Impacts
Waaree has delivered its solar modules, notable for their passivated emitting and receiving cell technology, for four major projects. These deliveries, made four weeks ahead of schedule, enabled Acciona to meet its project deadlines. Moreover, this success reflects Waaree’s efficiency and reliability as a supplier, in a context where the US solar market has encountered supply chain difficulties.
Market trends and forecasts
According to the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), the US solar market has grown at an average annual rate of 24% over the past ten years. Forecasts remain optimistic, with a significant share of new energy production capacity coming from solar power. However, this trend is supported by data from USA Facts, which projects a significant increase in the installation of solar PV systems in American homes.
Commitment to Quality and Performance
Waaree’s commitment to high standards of product quality and performance is central to its strategy. The modules supplied have undergone internal and independent quality tests, ensuring optimum reliability and efficiency for Acciona’s projects.
The Waaree-Acciona alliance is a prime example of the dynamics of the US solar market, where innovation, supplier reliability and quality commitments play a crucial role in achieving sustainable energy growth goals.
