Hendrickson Invests in Solar Energy

SEATTLE (Waste Advantage): Hendrickson announces a significant investment in solar energy.  Hendrickson is building a solar farm in Joliet, IL, to power their bumper plant.  The plant produces over 100,000 bumpers per year for the major Class 8 truck OEMs, school bus manufacturers and replacement bumper market in North America.

The solar farm will include over 2,100 solar panels and produce an estimated 1.58 megawatts annually. This output is enough to power the entire plant for several years and provide excess electricity back to the grid.  The construction of the solar farm is expected to be completed by mid-2025 and fully operational before the end of the year.

“This solar investment complements Hendrickson’s ongoing sustainability program as we continue our commitment to producing highly-engineered, high-quality components and systems for the commercial vehicle industry while reducing the impact on the environment,” said Matt Joy, Hendrickson’s president and CEO.

Hendrickson’s customers have fully endorsed its efforts.  David Carson, senior vice president of sales and marketing of Daimler Truck North America, said, “Daimler Truck applauds Hendrickson’s investment in a solar farm for their bumper plant.  Daimler has a long-standing commitment to sustainability and partners like Hendrickson are crucial to our industry.”
