XsunX, Inc. , a company working to begin the build-out of its planned 100 mega watt thin film photovoltaic (TFPV) solar module manufacturing facilities, today announced it has selected the state of Oregon as the location for its planned facilities and is working with representatives to finalize a manufacturing site location. “We’re very motivated by the overall program that was submitted to XsunX by Oregon’s Business and Energy Development Departments,” stated Mr. Tom Djokovich, XsunX’s CEO. “The combination of operating incentives and credits, added to low cost financing opportunities allowed us to make what we believe was the best decision possible for locating our planned multi-mega watt facilities in Oregon. The state has shown a great deal of desire to attract XsunX and the large number of knowledge-based jobs our facility would create. The state has also traditionally been a leader in green initiatives and is fostering a great environment for the sale of solar products as well.”
XsunX is currently engaged in the selection of a suitable facility and hopes to complete this process soon. Several existing candidate properties that meet the general requirements for its new facilities have been presented and are under review. “Once we initiate our plans and begin ordering the various components of our manufacturing lines, we will have a number of months prior to the delivery of the components to complete various improvements to the building we select,” stated Mr. Joseph Grimes, XsunX’s COO.
Commenting on XsunX’s plans to establish facilities in Oregon, Ms. Sarah Garrison with the Oregon Economic & Community Development Department stated, “We are pleased to have attracted XsunX to our state. The XsunX thin-film solar module manufacturing facility plans represent a significant long term investment on XsunX’s part so we’ve worked equally hard to provide a friendly business climate and as much assistance for their operations as possible. Their technology is a great addition to the diversified solar energy industry in Oregon.”
