The UK’s First Gigawatt Solar Factory
The Vision
Britain’s first Gigawatt solar manufacturing plant
Why it matters
Job Creation & Skills Development
The UKSOL plant will create 80 – 120 skilled jobs in high-tech manufacturing, quality control, logistics, and operations.
This initiative contributes to the UK’s broader objective of re-industrialisation and green-skills development in clean-energy sectors.
Supporting Homegrown Energy
By producing up to 1 GW of solar modules annually, this project directly supports the UK’s ambition to reduce dependence on imported renewable-energy components.
Domestic production enhances energy security and supply-chain resilience, ensuring the UK retains strategic control over a critical part of its Net Zero infrastructure.
UK Export Finance (UKEF) and UK Content
With core assembly, engineering, and management operations based in the UK, UKSOL will exceed the 20% UK content requirement, positioning the company to access UKEF-backed export finance for global markets.
