Quick Glance: Major Workforce Reduction at California Solar Company
- SunPower Corporation is planning to reduce more than a quarter of its workforce to address a prolonged downturn in rooftop solar energy.
- The closure of residential solar installation sites and the discontinuation of the direct sales unit are part of a shift to a low fixed-cost model, as mentioned by SunPower's CEO Tom Werner in an employee memo on the company's website.
- The announcement comes a day after SunPower stated the need to reassess financial results spanning nearly two years, adding to a series of challenging developments for the pioneering solar industry leader.
- The rooftop solar energy industry is facing difficulties due to high interest rates increasing the cost of solar panel installations, and California, the largest solar market, has reduced payments to households and businesses selling excess solar energy back to the grid, significantly impacting the industry.
