ELITE Solar, a provider of integrated solar manufacturing, has announced the commissioning of its new 5GW photovoltaic manufacturing facilities in Egypt’s Suez Canal Economic Zone, marking a major milestone in the company’s global expansion strategy.

The facility includes 2GW of high-efficiency solar cell capacity and 3GW of solar module production, creating a fully integrated manufacturing platform designed to serve utility-scale, commercial, and industrial clients across the globe.  

Egypt’s Prime Minister, Dr Mostafa Madbouly, attended the official commissioning ceremony earlier this month, underscoring the project’s importance to Egypt’s renewable energy and industrial development goals. The new facility supports local workforce development while strengthening the region’s role in the global clean energy supply chain.

On January 23, ELITE Solar welcomed regional clients, strategic suppliers and industry partners to the site for a firsthand look at the facility’s N-type solar cell and module production lines. The visit included discussions on supply chain coordination, production planning, local sourcing, and long-term collaboration—highlighting ELITE Solar’s focus on operational reliability and scalable manufacturing.

“This facility strengthens our global manufacturing footprint while reinforcing our commitment to dependable, market-ready solar supply,” said Arndt E Lutz, CEO, ELITE Solar USA. “By combining advanced N-type technology with integrated production and disciplined execution, we’re positioned to support our clients with consistent quality and long-term reliability across multiple markets.”

The Ain Sokhna facility is a key component of ELITE Solar’s international growth strategy, pairing centralised technology leadership and global standards with localised manufacturing in strategic regions. This approach enables the company to respond efficiently to customer demand across West Asia, Africa, Europe and North America.
