India’s Solar Cell Boom | Felix Lange, halm | TaiyangNews STC.I 2026

Описание: India’s solar manufacturing sector has been expanding rapidly, especially in solar cell production. At the Solar Technology Conference India 2026, Anu Bhambhani, Senior Editor at TaiyangNews, spoke with Felix Lange, Technical Sales Director at halm elektronik GmbH.

Lange shared how India’s rapid expansion in solar cell manufacturing has opened new opportunities for equipment suppliers. While the country already has significant module production capacity, the ongoing investments in cell manufacturing are creating strong demand for advanced metrology and testing solutions.

He explained halm’s role in supplying IV testers and measurement equipment to the global PV industry and discussed how technologies like xenon-based sun simulators and new LED-based simulators help manufacturers accurately measure next-generation solar cells.

The discussion also touched on measurement challenges associated with advanced technologies such as TOPCon and heterojunction, where extremely high production speeds leave only milliseconds to conduct accurate IV measurements. halm’s advanced measurement methods, including the ‘advanced hysteresis’ approach, help ensure reliable measurements even at these high throughput levels.

Transcript Highlights

[00:48] “Recently it has been developing very fast, and I think it’s exciting times in India at the moment.”

[03:35] “A new innovation of sun simulators has been approaching the market, which is based on LED technology.”

[05:44] “This gives us as a machine supplier only around 200 milliseconds to conduct the IV measurement.”
