The article from CleanTechnica highlights a significant resurgence in domestic solar manufacturing in the United States during the Trump administration, with the entire solar supply chain now reshored. According to new data from the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), U.S. manufacturing capacity has expanded across all major segments of solar and storage, including solar modules, cells, inverters, mounting systems, and battery cells. Notably, the U.S. has surpassed 60 gigawatts (GW) of domestic solar module production capacity as of October 2025, a 37% increase since December 2024. Battery cell manufacturing for stationary storage has also grown substantially, reaching over 21 gigawatt-hours (GWh), enough to power a major city overnight. This growth has been supported by 65 new or expanded facilities in 2025, attracting $4.5 billion in private investment. However, the article warns that this manufacturing renaissance is at risk due to policies and trade actions from the Trump administration
