OMCO Solar

Earlier this week I had the opportunity to to attend the Solar Farm Summit conference in Chicago and was blown away by the turnout and excitement about the growth of Agrivolatics. Always great to see my good friend Helge Biernath and his growing Sunzuan vertical agrivoltaic racking solution. One of our speakers from the DOE noted that 1% os the farmland in the US is tagged for solar in the future Thats still 9 million acres! Incredible growth opportunities to deploy solar responsibly and be beneficial to soli and farming is a win-win.

Wonderful day on capitol hill this past Thursday as it was an honor for OMCO Solar to participate in the 2024 U.S. Solar Manufacturing Expo. With multiple segments of the solar industry represented, it was great to be among this exclusive group of 7 companies and share the OMCO story as well as our contributions to the growth of solar in the US. Special thanks to Solar Energy Industries Association and the Congressional Solar Caucus Co-Chairs, Congressman Ralph Norman and Raja Krishnamoorthi. https://omcosolar.com/ #omcosolar #CleanEnergy #madeinamerica #solarenergy #solar #renewables #solarpower #sustainability

All done in Blakely, Georgia. A successful install with Hannah Solar building an OMCO Solar fixed-tilt. Jonathan Valtierra's first job with us as superintendent! Thankful for good friends and a good team. #georgiasolar #solarenergy #renewableenergy

The #solar tracker industry has evolved significantly through the dedication of engineers and scientists who have worked to make trackers more resilient to extreme weather while improving cost-efficiency and energy production. The challenge is particularly complex when multiple weather events, like wind and hail, occur simultaneously, necessitating sophisticated control systems. These systems rely on real-time weather data and forecasts to optimize tracker positioning, balancing wind and hail risks to protect both trackers and #SolarModules. Director of Solar Technology for OMCO Solar, Matt Kesler emphasizes the importance of advanced software and hardware designs in mitigating these risks and ensuring reliable performance over the long-term operation of #SolarPower plants. The development and implementation of these technologies are critical for the industry's future, especially in areas prone to severe weather, like Texas.

NICO JOHNSON 🎙️ with Suncast Media had a great interview with SEIA President & CEO Abby Hopper the day after SEIA celebrated 50 years with a wonderful gala night. She gave a very insightful bi-partisan message. OMCO Solar is proud to be part of a strong American solar and storage industry fueling our nation with viable clean energy options. Our future is that much brighter! #solarindustry #SEIA #SunCastMedia #omcosolar #CleanEnergy #madeinamerica #solarenergy #solar #renewables #solarpower #sustainability

First Solar celebrates #AmericasSolarWorkers. The thousands of people that go to work each day in factories, R&D labs, mines, railyards, and warehouses, enable First Solar’s uniquely American solar technology. Thanks to their work, there isn’t a more American solar technology in the market than the panels produced by First Solar’s factories in the United States.

We are pleased to announce that Matejka Farms has chosen Ziegler Energy Solutions to fully develop (2) solar arrays for their livestock operations. This project will be built using Heliene solar panels, Fronius Solar Energy inverters and US-steel OMCO Solar racking. Big thanks to Andrew Schmidt and the Ziegler Ag Equipment team. A great example of multiple Ziegler companies serving our customers and maximizing their uptime. #agsolar #buildingenergy

QA and QC! Excited to build the OMCO Solar fixed-tilt for our friends at Hannah Solar. Working in Blakely, Georgia. #georgiasolar #solarpower #renewableenergy #solar

It's been great to see the surge in domestic manufacturing, post-IRA, including in the tracker space, where we have seen many new plant announcements lately. OMCO Solar is proud to say that we have been factory direct in the US since day one (1955 as a company and 2008 in solar). We are looking forward to continuing to provide incredible support and value to our current and future customer partners with our factory direct capabilities! We are ready to support your tracker or fixed tilt projects anywhere in the US! #omcosolar #northamericancleanenergy #usmanufacturing #solarenergy #origintracker #Choicefixedtilt
