REC with its New Owner, Reliance, to Recruit New Talent for their Upcoming Solar Giga Factory in India

Munich, Germany – REC Group, a Norwegian-based international pioneering solar energy company, and its new parent company, Reliance Industries Ltd, are putting on a compelling show at Renewable Energy India (REI) from September 28-30,2022 in booth 15.07. Just one year after launching the 2022 Intersolar Award winner, REC Alpha Pure, REC is exhibiting its new Alpha Pure-R solar panel. REC has doubled its Alpha HJT production capacity in Singapore for the new solar panel, demonstrating its commitment to providing innovative solar products to its many customers. Together with Reliance, a Fortune Global 500® company, the companies are actively recruiting talent for their new Solar Giga factory in Jamnagar, India.

REI, India’s premier B2B expo for the renewable energy sector, expects to welcome over 40,000 trade visitors to its 2022 edition in Greater Noida. REC is planning a large show with a high-caliber local and international team to stand out among the 700-plus exhibitors.

It is showcasing its most recent innovations, including the new Alpha Pure-R premium solar panel, which debuted at Intersolar Europe in May. Jan Enno Bicker, CEO, REC, summarizes the highlights: “The REC Alpha Pure-R hits the sweet spot in terms of its power output, size, weight, and handling. With its high-power density innovations, the new panel follows the lead-free and RoHS-compliant REC Alpha Pure Series. We are proud to report that the REC Alpha Pure won the prestigious Intersolar Award 2022 – so the new REC Alpha Pure-R builds on a great heritage!”

The REC Alpha Pure-R, which uses heterojunction (HJT) cells in the large G12 format in a patented panel design, delivers power output of up to 430 Wp, while keeping the module under two square meters in area. As a result, the new product is ideal for residential installations with limited space.

The REC Alpha Pure-R will be manufactured in August 2022 at REC’s new production lines in Singapore, where REC is doubling the capacity of its Alpha HJT product line from 600 MW to 1.2 GW. Reliance, India’s largest private company with revenues of US$104.6 billion, is constructing a new Solar Giga factory, the Dhirubhai Ambani Green Energy Giga Complex, on over 5,000 acres in Jamnagar, India. It will be one of the world’s largest integrated renewable energy manufacturing facilities, encompassing high-power solar panels based on advanced technology, storage, electrolyser, e-mobility, R&D, and basic raw materials.

The new Solar Giga Factory in Jamnagar brings Reliance and REC one step closer to bridging the green energy divide in India and around the world, contributing to REC’s and Reliance’s stated goal of empowering people around the world through clean solar energy. As Bicker explains, “We have huge expansion plans in the region, and we are looking for new talents to join Jamnagar's Solar Giga Factory and our Centre for Excellence in Singapore. As we care about people and environment, we are looking for new team members who are passionate about creating a cleaner planet for a secure future with us!”
