According to Oman’s state-owned news agency, the manufacturer has reached an agreement with Salalah Free Zone in which the production site will be established.

The factory will be built on an area of 10,000 square meters and will require an investment of around OMR 29 million.

Because of its proximity to Salalah’s port and availability of infrastructure and logistical services, the construction of a manufacturing facility for solar panels is strategic.
