Germany-based solar module manufacturer Soluxtec has restarted production at its manufacturing facility in Germany following a technical upgrade of its production line.

The resumption of production comes months after Soluxtec’s insolvency filing at the Bitburg District Court in April 2026. The solar module manufacturer attributed its financial difficulties to intense international competition and declining solar module prices.

The company has transitioned from M10 to G12 format and adopted tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) technology for its solar modules.

The upgraded manufacturing line will produce solar modules under the GT series. Soluxtec will retain its existing product name, Das Modul, in its portfolio.

The company plans to progressively ramp up production over the coming weeks, focusing on manufacturing process stability, product quality, and production performance.

Soluxtec will continue manufacturing its modules in Germany, supported by its existing production team and European service operations. Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, and France are among the company’s priority markets.

Soluxtec has also expanded its technological and industrial capabilities through a collaboration with RONMA, a technology and industrial partner in the photovoltaic sector.

The collaboration covers research and development, solar cell technology, procurement, and production optimization. RONMA specialists are working alongside Soluxtec’s German team to develop manufacturing processes and technical capabilities.

Matthias Altieri, Senior Vice President of Sales, Soluxtec, said the company would build on its existing manufacturing expertise and customer relationships while expanding its technological and operational capabilities.

Soluxtec manufactures solar modules for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. The company plans to use its German manufacturing operations to support its development across these segments.

The company’s next phase of operations will focus on production development, product availability, customer deliveries, and commercial partnerships.

In 2025, the European Patent Office revoked a patent for multi-busbar cell technology used to manufacture solar panels, providing relief to European solar module manufacturers.

The expansion of manufacturing capacity is supported by Germany’s strong solar buildout.

According to the Market Master Data Register maintained by the country’s Federal Network Agency (Bundesnetzagentur), Germany added 12.63 GW in the first nine months of 2026. The country’s cumulative solar capacity stood at 130.68 GW.
