The new facility in Phoenix, Arizona is expected to be up and running by Q4 2023 and when fully operational will be able to crank out 2GW of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/ja-solar-review.html\">JA Solar panels<\/a> for residential, C&amp;I and utility-scale applications annually.<\/p>\n<p>The USD $60 million investment will also create an employment bonanza, with more than 600 new jobs created.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Solar is a critical part of renewable energy and we are thrilled to be a part of the effort to meet the goal of carbon neutrality by 2050 in the U.S.,&#8221; says the firm.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Arizona&#8217;s Governor, the Arizona Commerce Authority, the Greater Phoenix Economic Council and Phoenix&#8217;s Mayor are pretty thrilled about it all too given the economic boost it will bring.<\/p>\n<h2>Qcells&#8217; Huge US Solar Manufacturing Investment<\/h2>\n<p>South Korea-based Qcells already manufactures panels in the USA, but it is taking operations there to a whole new level.<\/p>\n<p>The company <a href=\"https:\/\/qcells.com\/us\/stay-in-the-loop\/trending-news-detail?newsId=NEW230109100829007\">announced this week<\/a> it will invest more than USD $2.5 billion to build a &#8220;complete solar supply chain&#8221; in the USA, and in doing so will create close to 2,500 direct jobs in the state of Georgia. Qcells claims this represents the biggest investment in the history of American solar power.<\/p>\n<p>In Bartow County, it will produce 3.3 gigawatts of solar ingots, wafers, cells and finished panels annually, and an additional 2 GW of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/qcells-review.html\">Qcells solar panels<\/a> will be manufactured at its Dalton facility each year. The company says this is expected to bring its total solar panel production capacity in Georgia to 8.4 gigawatts by 2024.<\/p>\n<p>As for the polysilicon to make the ingots, REC Silicon is to restart US production later this year and Qcells&#8217; parent Hanwha Group recently became a major shareholder in the company.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement was noted by US President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/statements-releases\/2023\/01\/11\/statement-from-president-joe-biden-on-hanwha-q-cells-announcement\/\">Joe Biden, who stated<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It will bring back our supply chains so we aren\u2019t reliant on other countries, lower the cost of clean energy, and help us combat the climate crisis. And, it will ensure that we manufacture cutting-edge, solar technology here at home. It\u2019s a win for workers, consumers, and our climate.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Tindo&#8217;s ACEPV Officially Opened<\/h2>\n<p>Last, but certainly not least &#8211; and much closer to home &#8211; Australia&#8217;s Tindo Solar officially opened its new Australian Centre for Excellence in Photovoltaics (ACEPV) at the new(ish) Tindo Solar panel manufacturing facility in Adelaide&#8217;s northern suburbs yesterday.
