Our Roots

Founded in 1996 as a component supplier in the automotive industry, Shoals Technologies Group honed its focus on quality and reliability. This foundation led us to pivot into the emerging solar industry in 2002, initially supplying components to FirstSolar and later providing cable harnesses to solar EPCs. This transition marked the birth of the modern Shoals Technologies Group.


Over the years, we have developed and deployed patented innovations that transformed how solar and storage projects are designed and built. Shoals has become a trusted name in clean energy and the leading supplier of American-made electrical balance of system (EBOS) solutions. EBOS is mission-critical power infrastructure — the technology that keeps electricity moving safely and reliably from solar modules and batteries to the grid.

In 2021, we embarked on a new era with our IPO on January 27, launching “Shoals 2.0.” As a public company with an expanded value proposition and new solutions in the battery storage and data center space, we embraced a refreshed brand identity, positioning ourselves at the forefront of the clean energy transition.

Our solutions today power solar, battery energy storage, and data centers. Across all markets, we have the same mission: deliver power quickly, safely, reliably, cost-effectively, and at scale.
