Polar Racking adds two U.S. manufacturing facilities

North American solar mounting solutions provider Polar Racking is riding the U.S. solar manufacturing wave and adding two U.S. facilities strategically located in Michigan and Florida. These new spots will help Polar Racking meet the growing demand for U.S. manufactured solar mounting solutions, reduce lead times, and help build the domestic solar industry market.

“Expanding our manufacturing capacity to the U.S. demonstrates Polar Racking’s steadfast commitment to operational agility and excellence”, says Pals Saddyappan, Director of Supply Chain and Global Manufacturing at Polar Racking. “Our new U.S. facilities mitigate shipping lead time risks for our customers and gives us additional control over the entire supply chain.”

“The expansion of Polar Racking’s manufacturing operations is in response to our customers’ needs to meet the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) domestic content requirements.” says Vishal Lala, Managing Director of Polar Racking. “Polar Racking supports the government’s initiative to re-shore the PV supply chain to create local jobs and bolster the local economy.”

Polar Racking has a pipeline of 3.4 GW of solar mounting and racking across North America and the Caribbean. Polar Racking is committed to supporting the accelerating growth of solar development across North America.
