As part of the launch event, all employees signed the first solar module off the production line.

Runergy has started production at its solar module manufacturing facility in Huntsville. It marks the company’s expansion into the North American market. The facility is set to fulfill its first customer orders this month.

The facility allows the company to scale its operations to meet increasing global demand. With an annual nameplate output of 2 GC, the Huntsville site could become one of the leading solar manufacturing hubs in the U.S.

“We are thrilled to start producing solar modules right here in Alabama,” said Jet Li, general manager of Runergy Alabama. “This factory not only brings new jobs and opportunities to the area but also represents our commitment to advancing renewable energy and supporting America’s clean energy goals. We couldn’t be prouder of our team’s hard work.”

Dr. Jusong Wang, managing director of Runergy Alabama, added, “With the increasing demand for solar energy in the U.S., we aim to meet the country’s renewable energy targets by producing our solar modules locally. Runergy Alabama will reduce lead times, minimize reliance on overseas suppliers and provide customers with more reliable, cost-effective access to our solar technology.”

He added that the plant will make N-type solar modules.
