Overview
Solar panel manufacturing involves producing
photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight into electricity. With increasing awareness about
renewable energy and the push for
green energy solutions, solar panels have become essential in addressing energy demands sustainably.
Scalability & Profitability
The solar panel manufacturing industry has significant scalability potential. As demand for solar power grows globally, businesses in this sector can expand by setting up large-scale manufacturing plants. Profit margins can range from
15% to 30%, depending on technology, efficiency, and market demand.
