Silfab Solar, a leader in American-made solar panels, applauds the thoughtful and responsive polysilicon policy by President Trump to further reshore American jobs and promote domestic manufacturing in support of the growing U.S. solar industry.
The White House decision regarding Section 232 tariffs on imports of polysilicon and its derivatives further strengthens U.S. manufacturers like Silfab Solar, which has invested hundreds of millions of dollars at U.S. facilities, employs thousands of American workers, and is planning further expansions to continue producing high-quality, extremely powerful solar panels and solar cells.
“Silfab Solar and the Trump administration share a common goal – to level the playing field and enable companies like ours to expand in the U.S. and build American products supported by a domestic supply chain,” said Paolo Maccario, Silfab President and CEO. “True energy independence for the United States emerges from policies like Section 232.”
Maccario said implementation of Section 232 tariffs coincides with Silfab’s future growth plans in North America, and as it begins full-scale production of solar cells at its new South Carolina facility.
“The decision from the White House to promote domestic production of polysilicon only strengthens our commitment and desire to be an even bigger provider of superior American-made products,” Maccario said. “Reducing dependencies on China for raw materials is good news, especially as Silfab ramps up its solar cell production lines.”
