Specialty Gases Expansion
Waaree subsidiary enters specialty gases to support chip and solar manufacturing in India
Anonymous
Waaree Energies is entering India’s specialty-gases market through its wholly owned subsidiary, Waaree Clean Energy Solutions (WCES), which is building a plant in Dahej, Gujarat. The facility is intended to supply ultra-high-purity gases and related services to semiconductor and solar-cell manufacturers, reducing reliance on imports that the company says have become a supply bottleneck as India expands chip and electronics production. WCES plans a phased portfolio of specialty gases and gas-management capabilities, extending the group’s clean-energy business into a critical manufacturing input. Waaree operates about 29 GW of solar-module capacity and up to 15.4 GW of solar-cell capacity.
