The German company RCT Solutions GmbH wants to build North America’s largest solar panel manufacturing operation in Manitoba using the pure quartz silica that Sio Silica hopes to produce here.
Sio Silica — which has raised concerns of environmentalists in southeast Manitoba about its potential to harm local water supply — would require $150 million in investment and eventually employ about 100 people.
RCT’s proposed solar panel plant — which needs the pure quartz silica produced by Sio Silica — would be a $3 billion investment eventually requiring a workforce of 8,000 people.
