Boviet Solar Technology Co. Ltd. announced the start of interior construction at its photovoltaic (PV) cell plant in Greenville, Pitt County, North Carolina. The project, with an annual capacity of 3.0 GW, marks a key milestone in the group’s investment strategy to expand local solar component manufacturing in the United States.
A strategic investment for American industry
Construction of the plant began in January 2025 and remains on schedule. The facility, slated to begin operations in the second half of 2026, represents the second phase of Boviet Solar’s North American industrial strategy. It complements the adjacent 3.0 GW PV module plant, which began production in the first quarter of 2025. Together, the two sites will form an integrated manufacturing hub, capable of producing both solar cells and modules within the United States.
900 skilled jobs and high-efficiency production
The company expects to create more than 900 specialised jobs in Greenville to support the production of high-efficiency cells for domestic and export markets. This initiative is part of Boviet Solar’s strategy to establish a vertically integrated and competitive production base in the United States, ensuring a domestic supply chain for high-performance photovoltaic equipment.
Capacity expansion and market positioning
The first phase of the complex, the PV module plant, manufactures the Gamma Series™ Monofacial and Vega Series™ Bifacial product lines. The addition of the new PV cell production unit completes the site’s vertical integration and allows the company to better meet the growing demand for U.S.-made solar products. This industrial model provides Boviet Solar with a competitive advantage in the North American market.
A recognised player for stability and performance
Founded in 2013 in Vietnam, Boviet Solar has established itself as a major player in the global photovoltaic sector. The company is consistently ranked among the most bankable manufacturers by specialised research organisations, including Bloomberg New Energy Finance and Wood Mackenzie. These distinctions reflect the company’s long-term financial stability and product reliability.
