Big changes are coming to our industry, and EG4 is ready! 

China Tariffs & Pricing Transparency
With 10% tariffs now in effect, some may play pricing games—but not us. We believe in transparency. As costs shift, we’ll adapt responsibly, ensuring fair and sustainable pricing rather than artificial inflation.
Building in America, Investing in the Future
For the past year, our 300,000+ sq. ft. factory in Dallas, TX has been ramping up to transition key products to "Made in the USA." As we roll out these American-made inverters and batteries, customers will benefit from:
10% domestic content tax credits for businesses
Stable, competitive pricing on U.S.-built energy solutions
Closing Unfair Loopholes
Many Chinese companies avoided tariffs by exploiting the under-$800 shipment exemption—while EG4 has always paid its fair share (~20%). As of Monday, that loophole is gone. Now, duties for those companies stand at:
Batteries: 21%
Cells: 35%
Inverters: 35%
(They may attempt to illegally reduce the value of the goods on the shipping declaration, but at least now they will be paying something and ultimately will get caught and banned/fined if they try that too many times)
This levels the playing field for companies like EG4, which have created over 400 American jobs while ensuring long-term U.S. operations and warranty support.
The Future is Bright
The solar and storage industry is stronger than ever! Costs will remain affordable, but more importantly, a greater share of energy solutions will be proudly built right here in the USA.
Exciting times ahead! Let’s power the future—Made in America.
