The U.S.A. has officially reached 50 GW of solar energy production capacity! This milestone could not have been met if it was not for the increase of domestic solar panel manufactures. “Reaching 50 GW of domestic solar manufacturing capacity is a testament to what we can achieve with smart, business-friendly public policies in place,” said SEIA president and CEO Abigail Ross Hopper. “The U.S. is now the third largest module producer in the world because of these policy actions. This milestone not only marks progress for the solar industry but reinforces the essential role energy policies play in building up the domestic manufacturing industry that American workers and their families rely on.”
