  • India's solar cell shortage may take 3 or 4 years to resolve
  • China's tech export curbs complicate India's manufacturing effort
  • Cell shortage threatens jobs, raises costs, delays projects
"We have suffered a lot due to the domestic cell unavailability for the past three months," said Shailendra Shukla, chairman of Icon Solar, a module maker, who expects production to shrink sharply to about 1 GW from 3.2 GW.

Nearly a third of India's 140 small- and medium-sized solar panel makers, which make up 60% of manufacturing capacity, have halted output and the rest cut cycles to three to four days, the All India Solar Module Manufacturers Association told Reuters.
