🌎 Our 2026 Corporate Responsibility Report, "Responsible by Design," has arrived — and it tells a powerful story. This year's report shows what it looks like when responsibility is built into every module that comes off the line. Real factories. Real jobs. A domestic supply chain. American-invented CdTe technology with decades of proven performance. Across our US factory footprint, we're proving that American manufacturing and responsible manufacturing go hand in hand. 👉 Read the full report and see what "Responsible by Design" looks like in action: #CorporateResponsibility# #AmericanManufacturing# #SolarEnergy# #AmericasSolarCompany#

America’s industrial decline was a choice. Reversing it is, too. First Solar CEO Mark Widmar's new op-ed in @RealClearEnergy compares two solar technologies over the same decade against the same adversary — crystalline silicon, which was lost to a state-backed Chinese buildout; and CdTe thin film, which remained in American hands through deliberate choices on IP, manufacturing, and supply chains. The lesson for critical minerals, batteries, and semiconductors: structural advantages compound. So do dependencies. The on-off switch for American industry stays in American hands if we choose to keep it here.

It's a proof-over-promise conversation about the people and technology behind the modules we build. Mark Widmar, CEO of First Solar, recently sat down with Nick Solheim, CEO of @americanmoment, for an episode of the Moment of Truth podcast — recorded live at the @reindsummit in Detroit. Mark and Nick discuss how First Solar is proving that advanced solar manufacturing can be built, and scaled, on American soil. By 2027, we expect to have six operational US factories ramped, supporting an estimated 40,000 jobs across our supply chain and generating approximately $4 billion in annual payroll — all while competing directly with China on solar technology. Mark talks through what strong manufacturing jobs mean for our people and communities, how we're using AI on the factory floor to drive quality and output, and what it actually takes to rebuild America's industrial base. 🎧 Listen to the full episode - #AmericanManufacturing# #Reindustrialize# #SolarEnergy# #MadeInAmerica#

American factories are BACK. More American jobs, production, and economic activity, while relying less on foreign adversaries. President Trump is serious about revitalizing American manufacturing. 🏭🇺🇸

American manufacturing and American supply chains mean American jobs. They also help deliver prosperity to communities across the country. We’re proud to bring jobs to the communities where we operate, and prosperity to the families who live there. “I am a single mother to one beautiful daughter. I’ve actually lived in Ottawa all my life,” said Stacey Bragg, Quality Technician for @nsgpilkington in Ottawa, Illinois, which makes high-tech float glass for First Solar modules. “What I do is check our glass to keep our clients happy and make sure everything is up to par. It’s very important to us that we keep the float lines open.” Learn more about America's Solar Workers - #FirstSolar# #AmericasSolarCompany# #Reindustrialize# #MadeInUSA#

American manufacturing is on a roll 🔥 The U.S. manufacturing sector notched its SIXTH consecutive month of expansion in June, according to the Institute for Supply Management Purchasing Manager’s Index.

Tariffs are turbocharging American manufacturing. Josh Jager from American Axle shared how tariffs are supercharging American manufacturing and incentivizing companies to reshore jobs and production lines back to American soil.

The Trump Administration is powering American manufacturing, strengthening domestic steel, and saving 2,300 jobs in Middletown, Ohio! 🇺🇸 @VP: “This is only possible because of my friend @SecretaryWright and the President’s Energy Dominance Agenda.”
