MacLean-Fogg Acquires OMCO Solar,

MacLean-Fogg has acquired OMCO Solar, a leading American manufacturer of solar trackers and fixed-tilt solutions, for an undisclosed amount.

This acquisition marks a significant expansion for MacLean-Fogg into the rapidly growing renewable energy sector, specifically within the solar mounting structures market.

OMCO Solar, established through decades of steel manufacturing expertise dating back to 1955, specializes in factory-direct delivery of high-quality solar mounting structures for distributed generation and utility-scale projects.

The company boasts a substantial U.S. manufacturing footprint with five owned plants, utilizing 100% US steel to deliver over 12 GW of structures to date.

Known for its vertically integrated operations, OMCO Solar provides comprehensive services from engineering to field support, offering competitive steel pricing and some of the shortest lead times in the industry with an annual capacity exceeding 13 GW.

The strategic rationale behind this acquisition centers on leveraging OMCO Solar's established market position and manufacturing prowess in the solar industry.

MacLean-Fogg, a global manufacturer, gains immediate access to OMCO Solar's specialized product portfolio, extensive U.S. production capabilities, and a robust customer base.

Synergies are expected through combining MacLean-Fogg's broader manufacturing expertise and resources with OMCO Solar's focused solar solutions, enhancing operational efficiencies and market reach.

This transaction is anticipated to strengthen the combined entity's ability to meet the increasing demand for American-made solar infrastructure.

The integration aims to further support the push towards domestic energy independence by ensuring a reliable supply of tariff-free products and world-class support, ultimately reducing costs and complexity for solar energy customers nationwide.
