Kalyon Güneş Teknolojileri Üretim A.Ş. (Kalyon PV) has decided to establish a company in the US and invest in a solar panel manufacturing plant under that company. It announced the decision in a Public Disclosure Platform (KAP) filing dated 30 September 2026.
According to the filing, the Board of Directors decided at its meeting the same day to set up a company in the US in order to grow operations globally, increase the share of exports in total sales and operate directly in the US market.
Production in line with US domestic content rules
Kalyon PV will hold a stake in the planned company, and the public will be informed separately once the incorporation is complete. The new company is expected to build a plant producing solar products, primarily solar panels, in line with the domestic content requirements set out in US legislation. A sales and marketing organisation for the US market will also be set up through the company.
As part of the process, a contract was signed with a US-based consultancy for tax, legal and investment advisory services. The financing and cost structure of the investment is expected to draw on federal tax incentives in the US as well as economic development incentives from state and local governments. The filing did not yet give the plant’s location, capacity or investment amount.
Vertically integrated production in Ankara
According to the company’s website, Kalyon PV produces ingots, wafers, cells and panels at its 250,000 m² integrated factory in Ankara Başkent OIZ, with around 2 GW of panel and 2.1 GW of cell production capacity.
