Solar industry contributing to millions of jobs

 

As rapid rise of the solar energy and the industry continues, job opportunities also begin to expand. The American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy estimates that 1.1 million jobs could be created in the next 10 years through investments in energy efficiency technology. These jobs are contributing to the US economy as PV companies site their manufacturing facilities near the expanding market grounds.

 

As the US continues to be such a fertile ground for the solar industry, many world leading solar companies are taking up residence in the US. As many of the states continue to implement strong solar programs, the US becomes a magnet for PV companies and manufacturers.

 

 

Outsourcing of solar manufacturing is not the way to go.

 

In manufacturing high quality technical products because it will ultimately raise the cost of solar panels. It is important to have knowledgeable, experienced talent for the fabrication process and foreign labor in this area is not significantly less expensive.  Keeping solar manufacturing in the US not only will help lower the cost per watt but also create millions of jobs for manufacturers, distributors and installers. Another benefit of keeping solar manufacturing domestic is the lower cost on shipping, thus further benefiting the environment. It creates a smaller carbon footprint of the product.

 

Advanced Solar Photonics (ASP) produces solar panel processing equipment inside our newly acquired 320,000 sq ft. facility in Lake Mary, FL. As the industry continues to grow, ASP plans to contribute to the development of millions of job opportunities. As we continue to develop partnerships within the industry our mission becomes lowering the cost per watt and increasing the electrical optical efficiency of next-generation solar panels. This bright future won't happen without solid investments.
