On July 28, 2026, T1 Energy Inc. (NYSE: TE) announced the acquisition of foundational solar patents and other intellectual property from Singapore-based Evervolt Green Energy Holding Pte Ltd. for $135 million. The patents relate to TOPCon solar cell technology, which T1 had previously licensed from Evervolt. The purchase price includes an initial $2 million cash payment and four installments, with the first $60 million due within three business days, to be satisfied by issuing T1 common stock. Subsequent installments may be paid in cash or stock at T1's election. The acquisition eliminates future royalty payments and supports T1's strategy to build a fully integrated U.S. silicon-based solar supply chain.
