While working through the expansion, Solar has committed to the addition of 30 full time employment opportunities over the next five years.When the construction is complete, Building 2 will have reached 80,000 square feet of manufacturing floor space, which will afford Solar the space necessary to once again Kaizen its operations and ensure proper production flow amongst the campus buildings.Solar Innovations, Inc. has worked toward this production capacity goal for over 16 years, and plans to reach it with this expansion.
