Products
Photovoltaic components
In September 2019, Q CELLS introduced its latest module called Q.PEAK DUO-G9. It combines existing half-cell Q.ANTUM DUO technology with Zero-gap feature, which removes spaces between cells to increase deployment capacity.[13] It launched a consortium with the academics and private entities to develop next-generation tandem cell technology using perovskite.[14]
Its Green Energy Solutions division manages the downstream business. In March 2021,Q CELLS sold an 81-megawatt solar power plant in Texas to US-based solar energy solutions provider Adapture Renewables Inc. The Rippey Solar Project plant is capable of producing electricity for 115,000 people per year.[15]
With Distributed Energy Solutions division, Q CELLS operates an energy retail business in countries like Japan and Germany, where it supplies green electricity from 100 percent renewable sources to households and small-sized companies.[16]
In December 2020, the company raised 1.2 trillion won through rights offerings in an effort to accelerate its expansion into renewable energy.[17] In April 2021, The company issued its first overseas green bonds worth 1 billion yuan.[18]
Petrochemical products
Chemical Division produced PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for the first time in South Korea.[19] Including PVC, It also manufacturers other petrochemical products such as LDPE (low-density polyethylene), LLDPE (linear low-density polyethylene), CA (caustic soda), and TDI (Toluene Diisocyanate).
PO is a polymer used in a wide variety of applications from daily consumer goods to high-tech industrial materials. In 1972, Hanwha Solutions succeeded in producing LDPE for the first time in South Korea, and are now producing wire and cable compounds, adhesives for hygiene products, and hydrogenated hydrocarbon resins.
PVC is a general-purpose plastic widely used for applications such as synthetic leather, packaging, flooring, toys, and textiles. In 1966, Hanwha Chemical became the first company in South Korea to produce PVC. Now it focuses on manufacturing eco-friendly plasticizers developed by its own proprietary technology—such as ECO-DEHCH.[20]
CA is an inorganic chemical product represented by caustic soda. It is used in various fields such as inorganic chemical products, paper, textiles, metals, electricity and electronics. TDI is commonly used across a wide array of industries and in everyday life, such as polyurethane foam and paint adhesives.[21]

REC Silicon
In November 2021, the company made a strategic investment in polysilicon manufacturer REC Silicon ASA (“REC Silicon”) to secure low-carbon photovoltaic materials in the US.[24] It pledged to make further investments throughout the solar value chain there, once Congress passes the Solar Energy Manufacturing Act (SEMA) before year’s end.[25]
Lancium Technologies
In November 2021, the company invested $100 million in Lancium Technologies, a Texas-based technology startup providing renewable-based electricity management service for energy-heavy devices.[26] Established by Michael McNamara in 2017, the startup has secured 150 million through funding from investing firms focusing on energy sectors.[27]
