  GE makes their modules in China, and they are going out of module production completely soon.
  Unisolar makes theirs in Mexico.
  Schott brings the cells in from Germany made with silicon from europe
  Sharp brings the cells in from Japan made with silicon from Japan
  REC makes modules in Sweden from silicon made in the US

    Jeff, off the top of my head- I think the new Schott modules are made in NM, Sharps are at least assembled in TN, and when these get UL listed, they will be made in FL (I think they're made somewhere else in the US until their factory is ready):

    GE and Unisolar too, right? When the Applied Materials modules take off, I think we'll see a bunch of those modules made in the US as well, though not under the AM brand.

      We are currently waiting on a stack of Evergreen modules (which are now very late to ship!) and we were getting ready to order another batch, so does this mean we should be looking into another supplier?   
      We try very hard to buy USA products, but that is getting harder and harder to do.  It looks like its now just SolarWorld in California. What other module manufacturers are still actually making their modules in US and not importing from China.
