盛产太阳能（Abound Solar）将把一太阳能组件设备生产操工厂选址于此前与Chrysler合作为德国传输器制造商Getrag提供产品的80万平方英尺厂址。到2013年盛产太阳能在蒂普顿所雇工人人数总计850人。
此举意味着公司将投资超过5亿美元美元用于机械、设备、建设及各种改善。
盛产太阳能的薄膜光伏组件制造技术诞生于80年代后期的美国科罗拉多州立大学。该公司也已在美国科罗拉多州生产经营。公司预计，全部建成后，蒂普顿厂址将成为美国最大的太阳能电池板制造工厂，每年生产数百万面板。
Tipton, Ind. - Abound Solar, Inc. will locate a solar module manufacturing operation in an 800,000 square-foot facility previously constructed in partnership with Chrysler for the German transmission maker, Getrag. Abound Solar projects to add up to 850 workers by 2013 at the Tipton site.
This move represents a more than $500 million investment in machinery, equipment and building improvements.
Abound Solar's thin-film photovoltaic module manufacturing technology was born out of Colorado State University in the late 1980's. The company, which also has production operations in Longmont, Colo., expects that when completed, the Tipton site will be the largest solar panel manufacturing facility in the U.S., producing millions of panels annually.
