Array Technologies broke ground on its new $50 million manufacturing campus in Bernalillo County, N.M., which the company says was made possible through Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) tax credits.
“Array’s new manufacturing facility will create good-paying jobs in New Mexico, strengthen the domestic solar supply chain and ultimately help us achieve greater American energy independence,” says Kevin G. Hostetler, chief executive officer of Array Technologies.
“This is a perfect example of government entities working together at all levels to promote pro-growth policies that create American jobs and support local businesses. With federal action like the Inflation Reduction Act and the support of state and local officials, Array is proud to be at the forefront of the solar energy boom.”
The 216,000-square-foot campus, located on Albuquerque’s west side, is slated to facilitate the company’s production, assembly, design, engineering and customer service.
In addition to the IRA tax credits, the expansion was also made possible in part by economic assistance from the Local Economic Development Act job-creation fund, awarded by the state. Additional support from the City of Albuquerque and Bernalillo County included LEDA funds and partial property-tax abatement through an Industrial Revenue Bond.
U.S. Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm, U.S. Senators Martin Heinrich and Ben Ray Luján, Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller and Bernalillo County Commission Chair Barbara Baca joined in the groundbreaking ceremony.

I see.
There’s not enough land in Spain to support rooftop and ground-mounted solar at a fraction of the cost.
LOL.
It’s possible that right now, there are other civilizations observing the human race, studying us from afar, and noticing our decline into savagery and eventual extinction by turning billionaires into trillionaires.
People say that the principal weakness of human beings is that we can’t plan for the future as a species. Dogs are arguably even worse, though they aren’t consumed with greed. They don’t plot the starvation of millions of other dogs so they themselves can have enough food to last a billion years.
As an elderly man, I’ll be leaving this planet soon, but I won’t cease pondering this until my heart stops beating.
The drawing here reminds me of a conversation I had with my mother in the early days of 2GreenEnergy when she saw that my focus had become an ongoing effort to improve the wellbeing of all the planet’s inhabitants–now and into the future.
She asked me, “Why don’t you just live your life?”
I explained, “This is my life.”
