The Report Comes as U.S. Rises in Global Manufacturing Rankings, Now Tied as World’s Second Largest Manufacturer of Inverters

WASHINGTON D.C. — The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) today released a new report outlining the industry’s priorities for strengthening cybersecurity while expanding domestic manufacturing of solar and energy storage technology. The report comes as U.S. solar and battery storage manufacturing continues to grow, with U.S. inverter manufacturing nearly tripling since the end of 2024.

As cyber threats targeting the energy sector and across the economy continue to evolve, SEIA is working with industry and government partners to ensure that solar and storage systems and components are secure and supported by resilient domestic supply chains.

The report outlines key cybersecurity considerations for the solar and storage industry, recommends actions to strengthen industry resilience, and provides resources for companies to implement cybersecurity best practices and standards.
