Why this conference:
US solar manufacturing is moving into a more demanding phase today. The first wave of announcements focused on capacity plans, factory openings and job creation potential. The next phase focuses on how production lines are specified, how factories are built and run, how technologies are selected, and how the sector defines a credible long-term roadmap.
Solar Manufacturing USA has been designed specifically for the manufacturing side of the industry, bringing together the companies building domestic production, the suppliers enabling factory ramp-up, the experts benchmarking quality and performance, and the technology voices shaping what-comes-next.
This is not a downstream solar event, and it is not a general policy forum. It is a focused meeting point for the people making decisions on factory execution, equipment, materials, process flows, technology ownership and long-term manufacturing strategy in the United States.
Who attends:
Where buyers, manufacturers and suppliers meet
Solar Manufacturing USA brings the full U.S. solar manufacturing ecosystem into one room, with particular emphasis on the buyers, investors and third-party entities whose participation helps define the commercial relevance of the event. Held in Austin, Texas, the event also gives delegates access to the state where solar manufacturing activity is becoming most concentrated, with opportunities for follow-on meetings and factory visits beyond the two-day programme.
- Buyers, developers and investors: Module buyers, procurement teams, and investors looking to understand what is really being produced in the U.S., how supply chains are evolving across polysilicon, wafers, cells and modules, and which manufacturers are emerging as credible long-term partners.
- Manufacturers and fab developers: Existing manufacturers across polysilicon, ingots, wafers, cells, modules and thin film, alongside companies with fabs under construction and those planning new domestic production over the next few years.
- Equipment, materials and turnkey suppliers: Equipment suppliers, materials companies, EPCs, turnkey factory and line providers, infrastructure specialists and adjacent industrial players seeking to support or expand within the U.S. solar manufacturing base.
- Third-party validation and due diligence: Factory auditors, testing and inspection firms, independent engineers and due-diligence specialists supporting lenders, buyers and manufacturers with benchmarking, performance validation and quality assurance.
- Industry bodies and R&D partners: Domestic labs, R&D institutions, manufacturing coalitions and industry bodies seeking partnerships, technology pathways and stronger links between U.S. innovation and commercial production.
Austin is the gateway to a state where U.S. solar manufacturing is becoming increasingly localized, scaled and visible. For many delegates, the value of attending will extend beyond the conference itself to include follow-on meetings and factory visits in Texas.
Attendees are expected to include CTOs, heads of R&D, manufacturing and operations leaders, procurement teams, commercial and strategy executives, and specialists involved in supply-chain, quality and market-entry decisions.
