ANAHEIM, Calif., Sept. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- RE+ 2024 -- Today at RE+ 2024, the largest clean energy event in North America, Maxeon Solar Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MAXN), a global leader in solar innovation and channels, confirmed that Cypress Creek Renewables, a leading solar and storage developer and independent power producer, has chosen Maxeon solar panels for installation at key power plant projects in the U.S.

Commercial operation for Cypress Creek's largest hybrid facility, Zier, in Brackettville, Texas, commenced in May with 208MW of photovoltaic capacity provided by more than 383,000 Maxeon Performance line solar panels. The Zier Hybrid Solar Site can generate enough energy to power over 41,000 homes in Texas each year. The site is designed to set a new standard for renewable, utility-scale power projects in the U.S., and is indicative of Cypress Creek's leadership in developing transformational energy infrastructure.

The success of the collaboration between Maxeon and Cypress Creek Renewables has resulted in Maxeon providing modules for additional Cypress Creek projects across the country including in New York and Washington states.

"Reliable, renewable energy is increasingly critical for communities, businesses and organizations across the U.S., and Maxeon is pleased to partner with power producers like Cypress Creek who are leading the way toward a future of clean energy," said Jason Espersen, Maxeon VP & GM, Utilities and Power Plants. "Maxeon has become the solar panel producer of choice for utility and power plant developers due to our successful track record of providing the optimal balance of price and performance, our supply chain structure, differentiated products, and our exceptional ESG profile as one of the world's most sustainable corporations."

"Maxeon is a pioneer and long-time leader in the U.S. solar industry, and we chose them for our Zier project and for future projects based on their commitment to provide efficient, reliable, sustainably produced modules that will advance our mission," said Peter Toomey, Chief Development Officer for Cypress Creek.
