Houston-Based PV Hardware Opens 2nd Manufacturing Facility in the City, Adding Jobs, and Ensuring 100% Domestic Requirements for Manufacturing

PV Hardware USA (PVH USA), a global provider of solar tracking and foundation solutions, announced the opening of its second U.S. manufacturing facility in Houston. This milestone underscores the company’s commitment to strengthening domestic production capacity for solar energy facilities and meeting the ongoing demand for its products across North America.

The 95,000-square-foot facility expands PVH USA’s U.S. footprint, creating more than 100 jobs in the local community. Outfitted with state-of-the-art equipment, the new facility officially began operations in July and will significantly increase production efficiency while reducing lead times for customers. It joins the company’s first $30 million U.S. manufacturing facility, which opened in Houston in May 2024 as one of America’s largest solar tracker manufacturing facilities.

“Opening our second U.S. manufacturing facility represents an exciting step forward in our growth journey and demonstrates our commitment to the U.S. market,” said Rodolfo Bitar, VP of Business Development for PVH USA. “By expanding our presence in Houston, we are not only investing in local economic development but also ensuring we can better serve our customers with faster turnaround times and the highest quality products that are 100% domestically made.”

With the expansion, PVH USA continues to align its strategy with increased customer demand, supply chain resilience and developing solutions that help solar facilities upgrade and expand their capabilities. In recent months, the company has launched a series of innovative advancements that help solar facilities generate more energy during overcast weather, withstand extreme weather events and expand the types of terrain suitable for solar installations.  

Solar tracking technologies help to maximize solar power generation by automatically moving solar panels to follow the sun throughout the day, optimizing the angle at which panels receive solar radiation. Established in San Francisco in 2008, PVH has been at the forefront of innovation in solar tracking technology, developing systems and products that can adapt optimally to different terrains, inclinations, and climates. In addition, the company’s proprietary pre-assembly process can reduce installation times by 40%, which will be critical to rapidly expanding solar power capacity to meet increasing demand for electricity.
