Big River Strikes Up Supply Partnership With Solar Equipment Maker
11/13/2019 - Big River Steel has won a long-term agreement to supply a New Mexico-based solar panel tracking equipment manufacturer, the companies have jointly announced.
In a statement, Array Technologies said it chose to work with Big River because of the steelmaker’s commitment to producing steel sustainably.
“This agreement provides Array with a like-minded supplier in regards to environmental sustainability. In addition to identifying a steady supply of high-quality materials, Array was committed to finding a provider of steel products that would allow the company to maintain its commitment to providing reliable renewable energy not only in their product design but through their supply chain as well,” Array said.
Big River chief commercial officer Keith Shuttlesworth said Big River saw a match with Array as well.
“I don’t know that I have seen two companies more aligned in their values than Array Technologies and Big River,” he said.
“This is exactly the type of partnership we knew our approach to steelmaking could attract, and we are thrilled to be working with the team at Array Technologies.”
