OMCO Solar and Create Energy have teamed up to expand U.S. domestic solar manufacturing to serve the utility-scale and commercial and industrial (C&I) markets. This collaboration unites two major American solar manufacturing leaders to deliver cutting-edge solar trackers for both current and future products.

Clean Energy for America and OMCO Solar, one of the nation’s leading U.S. factory-direct manufacturers of solar trackers and fixed-tilt solutions, recently hosted an event with local business leaders, solar energy organizations and local elected officials to discuss how and why Arizona needs to focus energy on creating a more business-friendly environment for solar energy and solar manufacturing.

If someone someday writes a history of the solar tracker industry, the author will surely tell of creativity and hard work by thousands of engineers and scientists, over many years, to make trackers more impervious to extreme weather, while also pushing cost down and energy production up. It’s fun and gratifying to be part of that team – an international collective who have mostly never met each other.

OMCO has been in the business of manufacturing since 1955 and manufactures all of their OMCO Solar Products at their 6 US plants. The most recent investment of over $10MM at their all new and state-of-the-art Huntsville, Alabama Operations, brings a total manufacturing base of over $95MM in manufacturing assets. Benefits of factory-direct operations across OMCO Solar’s nationwide manufacturing footprint include the shortest lead times in the industry.

Commerce Secretary Ellen McNair announced today that Phoenix, Arizona-based OMCO Solar, one of the nation’s largest manufacturers of steel structures for solar panels, plans to invest over $10 million into its second production facility in Alabama, creating 70 full-time jobs in Limestone County.

The dawn of the domestic content era has begun in the United States solar industry, and arguably no tracker manufacturer is better positioned to support it than OMCO Solar.

The solar tracker manufacturing market in the United States has seen rapid growth over the past year and a half thanks to tax incentives within the IRA.

OMCO Solar, a factory-direct manufacturer of solar trackers and fixed-tilt solutions, is opening a new manufacturing facility in Alabama, its second in the state and sixth in the United States.

The US solar industry is radiating a new level of confidence, emboldened by lucrative long-term tax incentives in the landmark US clean energy law signed by President Joe Biden in August 2022.

Solar trackers and fixed-tilt solutions manufacturer OMCO Solar has announced its 6th US manufacturing facility.

A horde of 40,000 solar + storage industry enthusiasts overran the Venetian Casino in Las Vegas last week at the 2023 RE+ renewable energy show — a horde that included Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps.
