Statement from Mark Widmar, chief executive officer of First Solar on the 2024 Presidential Election:


First Solar congratulates President Trump on his election victory.

We look forward to engaging with him, his administration, and Congress on a shared agenda to ensure a level playing field for American manufacturing and supply chains, safeguard American jobs, and win the energy technology race against China with American innovation.

As we have demonstrated, American solar manufacturing delivers economic and strategic benefits, creating middle-class jobs in communities in Alabama, Louisiana, and Ohio and giving workers the opportunity to invest in their future. Our US manufacturing footprint is supported by an American supply chain. Miners in Wyoming, Utah, and Michigan, glass workers in Ohio, Illinois, and Pennsylvania, steelworkers in Ohio, woodworkers in Indiana, truck drivers, railroad workers, and many others around the country contribute to what we do.

As we embark on this next chapter in our nation’s journey, we look forward to continuing to contribute to our country’s prosperity, competitiveness, and security.
