Suniva, Heliene and Corning partner on ‘Made in America' solar module supply chain
US-based monocrystalline silicon solar cells developer Suniva and solar PV module manufacturer Heliene have partnered with Corning to create the first 'Made in America' solar module supply chain. This collaboration is set to provide the domestic market with solar modules that utilise polysilicon, wafers, and cells all manufactured within the US. With its expertise in glass and materials science, Corning is supplying the wafers for this initiative. It is also sourcing hyper-pure polysilicon, as the majority owner of Hemlock Semiconductor (HSC). Corning vice president, Solar Technologies general manager, and HSC chairman and CEO Arabinda Ghosh said: 'Corning is excited to leverage our advanced manufacturing expertise to deliver top-quality solar components and secure the US energy supply chain.' The newly developed solar module is notable for its domestic content, which is up to 66%. This high percentage of US made components offers solar developers an edge by enabling them to benefit from the investment tax credit domestic content bonus. Suniva president Matt Card said: 'We are excited that this partnership brings a truly Made-in-America solution to the US market. Together, our companies offer the only solar cell in the market that provides US developers maximum ITC domestic content advantage - while building a domestic supply chain that provides for American energy independence and a strong manufacturing base.' Heliene CEO Martin Pochtaruk added: 'This partnership is a significant milestone for the US solar industry. By combining our strengths, we are able to deliver not only a high-performance module but also support the domestic economy and American job creation.'

Tech company Corning, US solar manufacturers partner on American-made panel
(Reuters) - Technology company Corning has struck a deal with U.S. solar manufacturers Suniva and Heliene to produce what will be the only solar panel composed of all American-made components, the companies said on Thursday. WHY IT'S IMPORTANT The alliance between Georgia-based cell maker Suniva, panel maker Heliene, and Corning is a meaningful milestone in the effort to establish a U.S. solar manufacturing sector that can compete with China. Heliene is based in Canada but produces panels in Minnesota. Corning and its subsidiary Hemlock Semiconductor produce silicon wafers and polysilicon, the solar industry's raw material, in Michigan.

KEY QUOTE "Corning is excited to leverage our advanced manufacturing expertise to deliver top-quality solar components and secure the U.S. energy supply chain," said AB Ghosh, Corning vice president and general manager of solar technologies and CEO of Hemlock Semiconductor. CONTEXT U.S. solar manufacturing capacity has grown steadily in recent years thanks to generous tax credits for clean energy factories included in former President Joe Biden's 2022 Inflation Reduction Act. President Donald Trump has refocused the nation's energy policy onto maximizing oil and gas production and away from fighting climate change, but clean energy companies argue their businesses are aligned with Trump's agenda to boost domestic energy resources and American jobs. BY THE NUMBERS The new module contains a solar cell with up to 66 percent domestic content — the highest percentage on the market, according to the companies. The product would allow solar project developers to qualify for a bonus domestic content tax credit of 10% on top of the base Inflation Reduction Act tax credit for clean energy projects of 30%.
