Sunrun subsidiary SnapNrack has cut the ribbon on its first U.S.-based facility, openings its doors at a new plant in El Paso, Texas on Nov.
The newly operational site assists with SnapNrack’s onshoring efforts, taking over from the firm’s manufacturing plant in Juarez, Mexico. Now just a few short miles — and one international border — away, the plant completes the company’s strategic realignment in terms of product onshoring.
SnapNrack says that by bringing both assembly and distribution over the border and into the Lone Star State, the company is working to eliminate friction with international customs. The second Trump administration’s tariff war and heightened foreign entity of concern (FEOC) restrictions have created a need for further onshoring, especially in the renewable energy space.
“This landmark operational expansion highlights SnapNrack’s commitment to U.S. manufacturing,” company representatives say, “strengthening supply chain security, and delivering crucial domestic content advantages to customers across the solar energy sector.”
The newly American-made solar components will allow SnapNrack to empower both its partners and its parent company, maximizing federal incentives for renewable energy.
