ROHM has reached a basic agreement with Solar Frontier K.K. to acquire the assets of Solar Frontier’s former Kunitomi Plant, located in Japan. The acquisition is scheduled to take place in October 2023 and will belong to the ROHM Group’s main production bases.
“This acquisition enables a fast production expansion by utilizing existing infrastructure. This way, ROHM will continue to quickly and reliably supply its customers,” states Wolfram Harnack, President at ROHM Semiconductor Europe. ROHM is aiming to start operation at the end of 2024.
As further expansion of the semiconductor market is expected, the ROHM Group intends to expand its production capacity continuously, particularly for silicon carbide (SiC) power devices, and ensure a stable supply to ROHM’s customers.
