Waaree Clean Energy Solutions Expands Into Semiconductor Specialty Gases

Waaree Clean Energy Solutions (WCES), a wholly owned subsidiary of Waaree Energies Limited, announced its entry into India's specialty gases business. WCES aims to be a one, stop supplier to the country's semiconductor and solar cell manufacturers. India is expanding chip and electronics manufacturing under the Semicon India 2.0 programme. High, purity process gases and chemicals are still largely imported, and that supply has become a critical bottleneck. WCES is building a specialty gases plant at GIDC Saykha, Dahej, Gujarat, to close that gap with domestic supply across India. “Semiconductor and solar cell manufacturing cannot scale in India without a reliable, high, purity gas and chemical supply chain alongside it,” said Anuj Sharma, CEO, WCES. “This is a natural extension of our deep, tech manufacturing and clean energy expertise. It positions us to serve India's fabs, OSAT and ATMP units, advanced electronics manufacturers and solar cell lines from day one, with product on the ground.” Building India's Specialty Gases Backbone WCES is building the business in phases. The plan includes: Specialty gases warehousing: multi, purpose storage and handling built to semiconductor, grade safety and purity standards UHP Ammonia purification: a dedicated unit for semiconductor, grade ammonia Phosphine/Hydrogen (PH₃/H₂) mixing plant: precision gas blends for doping and deposition processes UHP Oxygen: an additional core process gas UHP Hydrogen: already commercially available A Full, Spectrum Gases and Chemicals Partner WCES will also design custom gas and chemical supply systems and nitrogen plants. Its Total Gas & Chemical Management System will cover storage, delivery, safety monitoring and inventory, so customers can focus on their core processes. The UHP portfolio includes Silane, Ammonia, Nitrous Oxide, Phosphine mixtures, Boron Trichloride (BCl₃), Trimethyl Aluminium, Diborane and Germane/H₂ mixes, HBr, SF₆, Nitric Oxide, fluorinated gases and calibration gases. All of it will be backed by pan, India supply. Strengthening India's Manufacturing Self, Reliance The new business builds on WCES's clean energy manufacturing base, which includes its electrolyser stack facility. Government incentives are expanding semiconductor and solar cell capacity, and the gases business is designed to grow with it and give manufacturers a dependable alternative to imports.
