Made in America: Onshoring Solar Manufacturing
U.S. solar manufacturing is expanding rapidly, strengthening domestic supply chains while creating high‑quality jobs and economic growth across the country.
With more than 140 solar manufacturing facilities operating nationwide and tens of thousands of American workers employed, domestic production is helping meet growing electricity demand while reinforcing long‑standing U.S. industrial sectors.
As solar deployment scales, manufacturers are investing in facilities that produce everything from solar modules to mounting structures, electrical equipment, and specialty glass—anchoring a nationwide industrial ecosystem that supports reliable, affordable clean power.
Key highlights:
- 140+ operating solar manufacturing facilities across the U.S., with additional projects under construction and announced.
- 75,000+ American jobs supported, contributing more than $11.5 billion annually to U.S. GDP
- Stronger domestic supply chains for critical components, reducing reliance on imports and improving project delivery.
- Broad economic benefits for U.S. industries, including steel, glass, aluminum, and electrical equipment manufacturing
By producing critical clean energy infrastructure at home, solar manufacturing is reinforcing American industrial leadership while delivering long‑term economic and energy security for communities nationwide.
