The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) today announced that it is adding PV Hardware USA, GoodLeap, Rosendin, and Siemens to its board of directors.
These leading energy and technology companies represent a diverse spectrum of the solar and storage value chain, from manufacturers and developers to financial service providers and construction experts.
“I’m excited to welcome this outstanding group of leaders to SEIA’s board of directors as we advance policies driving unprecedented solar and storage investments and a surge in domestic manufacturing,” said SEIA president and CEO Abigail Ross Hopper. “Their expertise and vision are key to positioning the solar and storage industry to achieve America’s energy security and manufacturing goals.”
These additions to SEIA’s board leadership come as the organization outlines its policy agenda for President Trump and the 119th Congress. The organization is calling for a series of actions to strengthen the solar and storage industry, including regulatory and tax policies that accelerate reshoring of the supply chain and enable competition.
PV Hardware (PVH USA), established in 2011, is a global leader in solar tracker manufacturing and innovative solar tracking solutions. Committed to localization and sustainability, PVH USA is on track to achieve 100% domestic content for solar trackers by 2025. This milestone underscores PVH USA’s dedication to empowering local economies, strengthening the domestic supply chain, and advancing renewable energy standards.
“Joining the board is an honor and a testament to our dedication to the American solar industry,” said Emilio Garcia, CEO PVH USA & COO PVH. “Our commitment to achieving 100% domestic content for solar trackers by 2025 aligns with efforts to strengthen domestic supply chains and foster sustainable energy solutions. We look forward to collaborating with our fellow board members to advance policies that ensure a cleaner, more resilient energy future.”
GoodLeap is a financial technology company that provides accessible financing and software solutions for solar, battery storage, and other sustainable home upgrades.
“GoodLeap welcomes the opportunity to work closer with SEIA leadership and our fellow members to sustain and grow the American solar industry,” said Julia Pyper, vice president of public affairs at GoodLeap. “The residential solar and storage sector is already providing meaningful energy bill savings and reliability benefits to millions of households in states across the country, while helping to meet growing energy demand and build out a domestic clean energy supply chain. Through united efforts, the solar industry will continue to deliver benefits to individual consumers, entire communities, and the U.S. economy overall.
Rosendin is one of the largest electrical contracting firms in the United States with a dedicated team that engineers, procures, and constructs large-scale solar and energy storage projects across the country.
“Rosendin Electric is extremely excited to join SEIA’s board of directors and be affiliated with an organization that does so much for the solar industry as a much-needed resource in Washington,” said Rosendin senior vice president David S. Lincoln.
Siemens is the technology company for industry, infrastructure, and transportation and helps form the backbone of the American economy. As part of the larger Siemens corporation, Siemens Smart Infrastructure (SI) shapes the market for intelligent, adaptive infrastructure for today and the future. SI addresses the pressing challenges of urbanization and climate change by connecting energy systems, buildings, and industries.
“Siemens is proud to join SEIA’s board of directors to help grow the U.S. solar industry and strengthen America’s energy infrastructure,” said Dave Wojciechowski, Director of Green Technology, Siemens Smart Infrastructure USA. “By producing American-made photovoltaic string inverters in Kenosha, WI with our partner Sanmina, we’re answering the call for more localized production of critical photovoltaic components while helping customers make the most of domestic content incentives. This partnership supports local job creation, and boosts the domestic supply chain, while advancing U.S. manufacturing. Together with SEIA, we’re laying the groundwork for a sustainable future powered by innovation and clean energy.”
SEIA’s board of directors consists of more than 55 companies from across the solar value chain.
