SPI Energy’s Solar4America Showing American-Made Solar Modules at PV MODULETECH Conference USA 2023

MCCLELLAN PARK, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 1, 2023 / SPI Energy Co., Ltd., (NASDAQ:SPI) (the "Company"), a global renewable energy company and provider of solar, storage and electric vehicle (EV) solutions for business, residential, government, logistics and utility customers, today announced its wholly owned subsidiary, Solar4America ("S4A"), a Sacramento, Calif. based solar cell & module manufacturing company, is a sponsor of and will present at the PV ModuleTech Conference in Napa, California, June 6-7, 2023.

"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to present at PV ModuleTech this year," said Denton Peng, Chairman of Solar4America. "We will be showcasing American-made 410W & 430W solar modules for the residential market and our 550W & 580W solar module designed for commercial and industrial (C&I) and utility markets. We are a major domestic modules manufacturer currently that can supply 550W/M10 solar modules in the US. We recently announced that we plan to build new N-Type TOPCon solar cell manufacturing line in the U.S. while we plan to open our second US solar module and wafer manufacturing facility in Sumter, South Carolina. We aim to deliver American-made solar modules with American-made N-type TOPCon solar cells to customers anywhere in the US from our facilities on both coasts in the early 2024."

The Solar4America module manufacturing facility in Sacramento, Calif. produces approximately 700MW today with total combined capacity ramping up to 2.4GW in both Californian and South Carolina locations in 2023/2024.

Currently S4A has production capacities for 2023 on an array of modules including 330W/60 cells and 410W/72cells, 410W/108 half cut cells all black panels for the residential market, and 410W/72 cells (silver) and 550W & 580W solar panels for C&I and utility markets.

The PV ModuleTech conference gathers developers, independent power producers and module suppliers to the U.S. solar market as well as EPCs, banks, investors, technical advisory and testing & certification specialists. With the U.S. solar industry facing numerous supply challenges during a period of increased demand for solar, module supplier selection has become increasingly difficult. This event will address the module landscape that is expected to unfold for U.S. buyers in the coming years; in particular new domestic manufacturing. Special attention will be given to the module offerings, full value-chain traceability and the financial health of the companies currently supplying the market. Additionally, modules are changing in size and technology, with n-type wafers becoming more prevalent. The PV ModuleTech event in Napa, California in June 2023 will help attendees to navigate this new landscape for U.S. buyers in the coming years.
