There’s a strong sense of pride when a builder looks back on what they created from the toil of their efforts.
Made in America comes from blue-collar strength, work ethic, and is a culmination of what this nation personifies in its spirit to power our future.
On Thursday, March 13th, 2025, a special gathering of this “Made in America” pride took place in Madison, AL for OMCO Solar’s Alabama Solar Manufacturing Inauguration.
The celebration started with a sunrise breakfast spread followed by an inauguration program.
The support from the Northern Alabama/Tennessee Valley community for domestic manufacturing growth has been incredible.
Attending the ribbon cutting of OMCO Solar’s new state-of-the-art solar manufacturing facility included Senator Britt’s team, Alabama Department of Commerce, Huntsville/Madison County Chamber, Limestone County Commission, Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), SEIA, TenneSEIA, Energy Alabama, and many other industry partners, clients, colleagues, and friends.
The morning festivities ended with tours of the plant featuring 200,000+ square feet of manufacturing space, advanced robotic production lines that produce the module rail for the First Solar Series 7 module, and roll form lines for OMCO’s factory-direct tracker and fixed tilt products. Over $10MM invested into the facility, adding 70 full-time clean energy manufacturing jobs into the Huntsville Greenbrier corridor.
As part of a localized Alabama supply chain, OMCO Solar is part of a strategic domestic manufacturing partnership with industry partners First Solar and Nucor just a few miles away. This partnership is a great example of US domestic manufacturing and supply chain optimization to bring value to our solar customers and projects in the region.
As OMCO turns 70 years old this year, “Made in America” has always been the pillar we pride ourselves on, and “For America” has always been the why as we look to power our future with each milestone ahead.
