The facility is expected to create more than 700 local jobs and is planned to come
online in two 2 GW phases, targeted for 2028 and 2029. It would make the SEG Tomball
Industrial Campus one of the only U.S. manufacturing locations where HJT cells, 
modules, and key components are made in one place.

The facility will be located adjacent to SEG’s existing 4 GW Tomball #1 module manufacturing
facility and its 4.6 GW Tomball #2 module manufacturing facility currently under
construction. Once completed, the HJT cell facility will bring solar cell, module
and key component manufacturing together at SEG’s Tomball campus, alongside warehousing,
an R&D center, a certified testing laboratory, and planned EVA and junction box 
production lines.

SEG’s Texas-made modules, built with U.S.-produced HJT cells, will help developers
and asset owners meet domestic content requirements while improving project economics.
They will also provide something increasingly valuable in today’s market: a dependable
source of U.S.-manufactured supply.

Jim Wood, chief executive officer of SEG Solar, said "Bringing HJT cell manufacturing
to the U.S. will give customers a more domestic supply chain with clearer sourcing
and a single company standing behind the product. As the only U.S. company dedicated
to integrated domestic vertical manufacturing, SEG will continue to strengthen our
U.S. operations and innovation.  American-made cells, American-made modules, one
company accountable."
