"Our Houston operation will be a key player in the development of utility-scale solar energy across America, and we look forward to driving progress as a leading solar tracker manufacturer."
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), solar power generation is expected to increase from 95 Gigawatts (GW) of total generating capacity to 131 GW in 2024, then climb to 174 GW by 2025. The new Houston PVH USA factory employs more than 120 local workers and is the company's third wholly-owned factory worldwide. The facility will provide custom-built solar tracking systems for new solar generation projects, expected to be the leading source of growth in the U.S. energy power sector in the coming years.
"We are committed to powering the solar revolution with U.S. manufacturing and workers," García said. "The incentives provided through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act are a tremendous opportunity to promote domestic manufacturing and support local communities. PVH USA aims to contribute to job creation and economic growth while bolstering the nation's renewable energy infrastructure."
Solar tracking technologies help to maximize solar power generation by automatically moving solar panels to follow the sun throughout the day, optimizing the angle at which panels receive solar radiation. Established in San Francisco in 2008, PVH has been at the forefront of innovation in solar tracking technology, developing systems and products that can adapt optimally to different terrains, inclinations, and climates. In addition, the company's proprietary pre-assembly process can reduce installation times by 40%, which will be critical to rapidly expanding solar power capacity to meet increasing demand for electricity.
