PORTLAND, Tenn., Sept. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shoals Technologies Group, Inc. (Shoals) (Nasdaq: SHLS), a global leader in electrical balance of system (EBOS) solutions for the energy transition market, announced today the issuance of its new U.S. patent (the ‘295 patent) that expands its Big Lead Assembly (BLA) intellectual property portfolio and further solidifies its leadership in American energy infrastructure innovation.

The ‘295 patent adds yet another patent to those already protecting Shoals’ BLA, a plug-and-play wiring solution that eliminates traditional combiner boxes, significantly reduces installation time and labor costs, and enables long-term performance on solar projects. Shoals has moved to add the newly issued Patent to its pending lawsuit against Voltage, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina to protect against Voltage’s infringement of the ‘295 patent. By securing and defending its intellectual property, Shoals ensures that innovation is rewarded and that customers benefit from authentic, high-performance solutions.

“This newly issued patent is a testament to our relentless pursuit of innovation and our deep-rooted commitment to American manufacturing excellence,” said Brandon Moss, CEO of Shoals Technologies Group. “It not only safeguards our proprietary BLA technology but also reinforces our leadership in the U.S. solar market. By protecting our intellectual property, we’re ensuring fair market dynamics so customers can trust the quality of the solutions they deploy on energy projects.”

As the demand for American energy resources accelerates, Shoals remains resolute in advancing high-quality, U.S. manufactured solutions. With a focus on reliability, innovation, and long-term value, Shoals continues to advocate for integrity in the solar supply chain, ensuring that domestic manufacturers are empowered to lead the energy transition.
