Swiss module manufacturer Meyer Burger will scrap its proposed 2GW solar cell manufacturing plant in Colorado, claiming that the project is “no longer financially viable”.

First announced last July, the facility was intended to supply cells for the company’s module assembly plant in Goodyear, Arizona, which began commercial operations in June. Meyer Burger has a number of module off-take agreements in place, including a deal to supply 5GW of modules to D. E. Shaw Renewable Investments (DESRI), and the company announced that it would rely on its cell production facility in Thalheim, Germany, to meet demand for its cells.
