[RE-wrenches] PV and inverter domestic manufacturers' list

I'll add a few more to the list.

 

PV Powered inverters are US made also.

 

Modules?

 

SolarWorld is US made.

 

Uni-Solar is US made.

 

The Evergreen modules sold in the US are made in the US. (German production
stays in Europe pretty much)

 

Sharp produces wafers only in Japan. All subsequent printing, tabbing, and
assembly is done in Tennessee. 

(EXCEPT 80, 123, & 130 watt modules. The only Sharp modules with J-boxes
anymore.)

 

Cheers,

Only major inverters I know of for sure made in the US are Outback (not 100%
sure on that actually...), Magnum, and Exeltech.

 

Panels are a mixed bag - even the US ones I don't think are 100% made in
USA.

Hello,

 

Does anyone know of the existence of and link to a comprehensive list of
US-made inverters and PV panels? Thanks.
