Is Meyer Burger preparing to shut down its solar module manufacturing facilities?

Switzerland's Meyer Burger Technology has announced that it is preparing to shut down its solar module manufacturing facilities in Germany. “With a deteriorating market environment in Europe, continuing with full-scale European solar manufacturing is not sustainable for the time being,” the company said in a statement.

Does Meyer Burger still make solar panels in Germany?

Meyer Burger, a Switzerland-based heterojunction cell and panel manufacturer, says it will stop making PV modules in Germany, but it will continue to produce solar cells in the country to support its panel production operations in the United States.

Is the PV module supply chain undergoing transformation in 2024?

The PV module supply chain is undergoing transformation in 2024, marked by oversupply, policy uncertainty, and low prices affecting manufacturing capacity expansion and factory utilisation rates. Oversupply has been central to the solar supply chain since the second quarter of 2023 but there are signs the trend is shifting.
