Renewable energy technology firm Erthos has partnered with a US-based PV module manufacturer to secure US-made modules for its Earth Mount Solar projects starting in 2025, meeting the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) domestic content requirements. This agreement allows Erthos to qualify for full tax credits by achieving the necessary domestic content thresholds and ensures compliance for its upcoming solar plants. Earth Mount Solar is a solar plant design where the PV modules are positioned flat on the ground, eliminating the need for steel tracking structures and piles, reducing installation costs and time. The agreement guarantees Erthos will achieve a domestic content percentage of 54.4%, surpassing the 45% threshold required for 2025 and the 50% needed for 2026, ensuring full eligibility for IRA tax credits. This partnership secures the manufacturer’s entire production capacity for the next two years, allowing Erthos to stay ahead of upcoming compliance regulations. By locking in US-made PV modules, Erthos also provides solar developers an opportunity to capitalize on federal incentives,but emphasizes that quick action is essential due to limited module availability.
