The Future of the IRA and its Impact on Solar Energy
28/03/2025

The Future of the IRA and its Impact on Solar Energy (The Inflation Reduction Act) has been crucial for the growth of renewable energy in the U.S., offering incentives such as the 10% Domestic Content Bonus Tax Credit. This measure has driven the use of domestically manufactured components, strengthening the local solar industry and creating thousands of jobs across the country. However, with the new administration, these incentives are under review, creating uncertainty in the sector and raising concerns among renewable energy developers and manufacturers.
Commitment to Domestic Manufacturing
At PVH, we support the development of solar energy in the U.S. and have reinforced our commitment to domestic production with the opening of our Manufacturing HQ in Houston, Texas. This not only ensures compliance with IRA requirements but also enhances the efficiency and reliability of our products. By manufacturing domestically, we help reduce project lead times, improve supply chain resilience, and support the broader goal of energy independence.
“The Domestic Content Bonus Tax Credit has been key to making U.S. solar manufacturing more competitive. Our domestic production allows us to provide greater reliability and efficiency to our customers while fostering economic growth in the renewable energy sector.” — Rodolfo Bitar, VP of Business Development at PVH
Policy Changes and Challenges for the Sector
The new administration’s review of the IRA could modify or reduce these incentives, impacting investment and strategy decisions within the industry. The possibility of stricter eligibility criteria or a reduction in funding could lead developers to reconsider their sourcing strategies and financial models. At PVH, we are closely monitoring these changes to adapt and continue delivering cutting-edge solutions that help our partners navigate regulatory shifts.
Implications and Opportunities
- Supply Chain Adjustments: Manufacturing in Houston allows us to maintain control over our products and ensure our customers continue to benefit from tax incentives. By prioritizing domestic materials, we also mitigate risks associated with international supply chain disruptions.
- Financial Planning: With potential changes to the 10% bonus, our experts are ready to help optimize investment strategies, ensuring developers maximize the value of their solar projects even in a shifting regulatory landscape.
- Industry Advocacy: PVH actively collaborates with industry associations and policymakers to advocate for incentives that support U.S. solar manufacturing and clean energy growth.
- Long-Term Sustainability: Regardless of policy changes, our commitment to innovation and sustainability remains strong. We continuously invest in research and development to improve the efficiency and durability of our solar tracking solutions.
At PVH, we are prepared for any scenario and remain committed to domestic manufacturing and solar tracking innovation. Our mission is to support the growth of the U.S. solar industry while providing our partners with reliable, high-quality solutions.
