Tour of Silicon Solar Panel Manufacturing: Illuminate USA (Pataskala, Ohio)

#solar #solar-panels #silicon #manufacturing #technology #assembly

Illuminate USA is an American advanced manufacturing company. We are committed to developing renewable energy solutions through cutting-edge solar panel technology, sustainable practices and a dynamic workforce.

Illuminate USA’s new manufacturing facility is assembling solar panels ready for installation. The facility is producing bifacial solar panels using some of the most advanced and efficient panel assembly technology in the world.

What We’re Producing

The panels rolling off Illuminate USA lines will supply two domestic solar markets: rooftop (or residential) and utility-scale. Over time, we expect this project to expand the U.S. solar supply chain, creating even more positive impact in communities in Ohio and around the country.

5+ Gigawats produced per year
9.2 Million solar Panels
1 Million American Homes Powered
