LG Electronics announced plans for a new solar module assembly plant in Huntsville, Ala. The new factory will create about 160 new full-time jobs, increasing LG's Huntsville employment by 60 percent to more than 400 workers.

"LG is one of the top providers of solar panels for the residential market in the United States, and the new solar plant will help LG better serve its U.S. customers", explained Kwon. "This demonstrates our commitment to being a long-term leader in the U.S. solar industry. LG's investment in U.S. manufacturing is consistent with the Administration's goal of creating U.S. jobs," he said.

"LG has a long history as a leading corporate citizen in Alabama. Now, LG is launching our state's first solar manufacturing plant, which represents a major milestone both for Alabama and for the company. We look forward to seeing where this great partnership takes us in the future," she said.

"We're thrilled that LG selected Huntsville for its new solar panel assembly plant, because the company considered many other locations for this project," said Greg Canfield, secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce. "LG is a world-class company, and its decision represents a powerful endorsement of Alabama's advantages and its workforce."

Calling LG "a strong community partner in Huntsville for many decades," Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle said, "Our relationship has deepened through visits to the company's headquarters in Korea and successful advancements in technological innovation. LG chose Huntsville as the place to do business in the U.S. more than 30 years ago, and they've chosen Huntsville again as a place to prosper with the new solar module plant."

"With the expansion of LG Electronics in the Huntsville-Madison County, Alabama region, LG will utilize the latest technology in a high-growth market to produce these solar panels," said Dale Strong, Chairman of the Madison County Commission. "The diversity and worldwide recognition of the Madison County economy demonstrates we continue to thrive with our finest hours still ahead."
