In June 2025, BayWa r.e. welcomed Ryan Adams, Director of Business Development at Silfab Solar, to speak about one of the hottest topics in the renewable energy industry: Domestic content and the future of American-made solar panels.
This webinar was one of our most-attended interactive online presentations ever, and in case you missed it, you can relive the experience in the video below or keep reading to learn some of the most important information we extracted from the event.
Who is Silfab Solar?
In 2025, Silfab Solar boasts over 40 years of solar industry experience and over 1000 employees scattered across North America. While the company maintains an office in Toronto, Canada, 100% of Silfab Solar modules are now produced in the United States at facilities in Burlington, Washington and Fort Mill, South Carolina. Silfab Solar has survived countless industry fluctuations and grown sustainably while following principles of financial stability, R&D innovation, an ethically sourced supply chain, and precision manufacturing.
The Benefits of Domestically Produced Solar
For Silfab Solar, producing American-made solar panels comes with many benefits for installers, the US solar industry, and the planet. To start, domestic sourcing helps avoid many tariffs and completely side-steps any worries surrounding Antidumping (AD) and Countervailing Duty (CVD) laws on modules produced in select countries overseas. Domestically produced panels also adhere to the highest global manufacturing standards and ensure a supply chain free of forced labor with increased transparency and traceability, while supporting stable, high-paying jobs.

While Domestic Content addder guidelines continue to evolve, it is difficult to pinpoint the exact economic (and tax credit) benefits of choosing American-made panels at this time, however there are no doubts that Silfab’s products support growth in local economies. The company is also very much committed to environmental sustainability with long-term strategic partnerships for recycling and low-carbon footprint production facilities.
Today, many Silfab Solar panels are available in the BayWa r.e. webstore, including modules compliant with the Build America Act and current Domestic Content tax credit guidelines.
