OMCO Solar now shipping 100% domestic solar trackers
Solar racking manufacturer OMCO Solar, which has built its brand on shipping factory-direct solar trackers and fixed-tilt solutions, is now offering a 100% U.S.-made solar tracker system. With the delivery of Kinematics’ American-made drives and motors, OMCO’s fully domestic tracker solution is officially being deployed to project sites nationwide.
OMCO Solar is the solar division of OMCO Holdings, which has more than 70 years of American manufacturing experience, and has manufactured components for solar systems for decades. Its vertically integrated model has helped them deliver solar mounting / racking / tracking systems with short lead times. Offering a 100% domestic product further adds to its position in the market, and keeps the OMCO tracker tariff-free.
“OMCO has historically been a leader in solar domestic manufacturing and this achievement, working in conjunction with our partners at Kinematics, is a milestone for our team,” says Eric Goodwin, VP of Business Development. “The timing of this also allows OMCO Solar’s Phoenix, AZ Headquarters, one of five OMCO manufacturing plants in the US. OMCO to deliver for our customers immediately in the aftermath of the OBBB passage and the compressed schedule requirements to ensure tax credits for projects are secured.”
Combining the OMCO U.S. manufacturing footprint (five plants) with Kinematics’ U.S. volume adds up to 13 GW annual capacity.
“At Kinematics, we are proud to support our solar tracker partners like OMCO Solar with actuators, motors, and controllers that qualify for U.S. domestic content,” said Jenn Cangelosi, Vice President of Global Sales at Kinematics. “With three manufacturing facilities in the United States, three additional factories around the world, and a team of over 800 employees globally, we’re uniquely equipped to deliver high-performance motion solutions at scale. With more than 135 gigawatts of fielded systems, our technology is trusted by the world’s leading solar innovators.”
“Everything we make, we make in the US – with US drives and motors, we can now ship all-US tracker solutions,” says Matt Kesler, Director of Solar Technology.
To date, OMCO Solar has delivered over 12 GW of factory-direct solar mounting structures within the US.
