Although only one of the top five manufacturers (First Solar) is fully U.S.-based, many other American companies are expanding their solar manufacturing operations. Smaller firms like SEG Solar, Solar4America, and Mission Solar continue to grow, while new factories are opening across the country.

The Hanwha Group has a US Q CELLS plant that produces 12,000 solar panels a day and employs many Americans. The company also assembles Q.PEAK modules here, which utilize Q. Antum crystalline-silicon solar cells. Having its factory produce 1,700 MW of solar power, it is right behind First Solar and vying for the top spot.
