Nextracker says it has shipped and delivered the industry’s first U.S.-manufactured solar trackers in the United States, which are expected to achieve 100% domestic content value for solar trackers under the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
The first project to receive these domestic content trackers is SB Energy’s Pelican’s Jaw project. The 570 MW solar and 954 MWh storage project is currently under construction by SOLV Energy.
Nextracker began investing in local manufacturing infrastructure in 2021 to establish a secure supply chain following disruptions during the global pandemic. Together with its manufacturing partners, the company has now expanded or opened more than 25 U.S. factories with over 30 GW of annual capacity.
“Delivering the industry’s first trackers with 100% domestic content value is a huge milestone for our customers, our supply partners, and Nextracker,” says Dan Shugar, Nextracker’s founder and CEO. “It demonstrates our ability to ramp and scale operations that directly benefit our customers – and sets a new standard for local supply chain resilience and operational excellence.”

We Need to Choose Our Online Influencers More Carefully
Here’s Lucy Biggers, social media powerhouse, explaining how solar and wind energy actually aren’t free, because they require materials that need to be mined from the Earth.
Yes, Lucy. I think most of us already knew that.
It’s hard for me to understand how a person with zero training in science has any relevance to what climate scientists are telling us. If I want a good recipe for carrot soup, I don’t ask a baseball coach or an auto mechanic.
They call this woman an “influencer.” What type of idiot does she influence?

Are We that Dumb?
Yes, part of this is stupidity. But a larger part is that people who still support Trump at this point are desperate to believe whatever comes out of his mouth, regardless of how nonsensical it may be.
I wish my mother were still here so I could see where she would stand. She was extremely well-educated, and a voracious reader, but somehow remained a Fox News viewer until the end. I just wonder if the last 15 months may have turned her around.

Trump and the Declaration of Independence
Those who stand in opposition to the president have dozens of different reasons for their feelings. One, as is on display here, is that he’s an ignoramus.
