Talon PV LLC, a Texas-based advanced manufacturing company specializing in high-efficiency solar cells, has announced the sale of a minority stake to T1 Energy Inc. under a Simple Agreement for Future Equity. As per Talon PV, the agreement followed earlier funding provided entirely by Houston-based Eagle Group before the T1 partnership. The collaboration is part of Talon PV’s plan to establish a 4.8 GW n-type TOPCon solar cell manufacturing facility in Baytown, Texas, which has received $97.1 million in state and local tax incentives. According to Talon PV, the project’s construction will be led by ARCO Murray, with Fraunhofer ISE supporting technological development, while Marathon Capital served as exclusive financial advisor for the transaction. The Baytown facility is expected to achieve commercial availability in Q1 2027.
