Oman backs 6 GW integrated solar cell and module factory

Future Fund Oman, a USD 5.2 billion investment vehicle managed by the Oman Investment Authority, has approved a package that includes domestic solar manufacturing capacity. The planned factory would integrate solar cell and module production at 6 GW scale, supporting Oman’s industrial diversification strategy. For the regional solar market, the move is notable because MENA clean-energy growth is starting to pull manufacturing policy closer to project development.
