Cancelled

Maxeon Solar Technologies canceled a $1 billion solar cell and module factory project in New Mexico. The company faced operational challenges since 2024 and was majority owned by a Chinese state-owned company. The cancellation was influenced by new sourcing rules under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which penalizes solar developers sourcing panels from companies with Chinese ownership.
