Singapore-headquartered (Nasdaq: MAXN) is restructuring to focus exclusively on the US market, but it’s put its $1 billion Albuquerque solar cell factory on ice. Maxeon is selling off its global sales and marketing assets in EMEA, Latin America, and Asia Pacific to its parent company, TCL Group, which will also acquire Maxeon’s Philippines manufacturing operations. TCL will then operate them under a new name, TCL SunPower International. The transactions are expected to be completed by the end of the year. Maxeon will continue to operate as an independent, publicly traded Nasdaq-listed company solely focused on the US residential, commercial, and utility-scale markets to “drive growth and profitability.” The company also announced that it has executed a five-year lease of an existing building in Albuquerque and plans to begin solar panel manufacturing in this 2-gigawatt (GW) capacity facility in early 2026. George Guo, Maxeon’s CEO, said, “Assuming successful financing, this site will allow Maxeon to rapidly deploy a 2 GW module assembly facility while we continue to evaluate our longer-term objective of also establishing solar-cell manufacturing capacity.” What Guo is referring to when he mentions solar-cell manufacturing is the $1 billion factory. In August 2023, the company said it would build a 3-gigawatt (GW) solar-cell and panel factory in Mesa del Sol, Albuquerque, from the ground up. It had planned to start construction on the plant in early 2024, but after delays, it’s now been put on hold. Mesa del Sol, which says it’s still working with Maxeon on the construction project, has extended the solar company’s purchase agreement for 100 acres of land, according to the . If built, it will be the largest factory of its kind in the US. Maxeon has had a tumultuous year. In May, it was investigated for violating US federal securities laws, and it got a slap on the hand from Nasdaq for the delayed release of quarterly financial reports. Then it got a financial boost in the form of a nearly $200 million investment from China’s TCL Zhonghuan, which gave the latter an over 50% stake in the company. It also saw a 99% drop in stock value this year. Recently, Maxeon ran into trouble with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Earlier this month, it disclosed that CBP had detained its solar panels assembled in Mexico with solar cells from Malaysia. CBP has ramped up its scrutiny of solar panel supply chains to ensure they are free from links to forced labor involving the Uyghur community. Maxeon emphasized that its panels have no ties to the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region. The sale of Maxeon’s Asian assets to TCL should help streamline the CBP documentation process, but Trump’s recent Mexico tariff announcement is a potential fly in the ointment, too. No wonder this majority Chinese-owned company with a tanked stock value wants to build panels in solar-industry-friendly New Mexico as soon as possible. and subscribe to the .

No. 7 Alabama looks to remain in playoff contention with a visit to Oklahoma

Voorhees team presents app at 2024 BE SMART HackathonA judge on Monday rejected a request to block a San Jose State women’s volleyball team member from playing in a conference tournament on grounds that she is transgender. Monday’s ruling by U.S. Magistrate Judge S. Kato Crews in Denver will allow the player, who has played all season, to continue competing in the Mountain West Conference women’s championship scheduled for later this week in Las Vegas. The ruling comes after a lawsuit was filed by nine current players who are suing the Mountain West Conference to challenge the league’s policies for allowing transgender players to participate. The players argued that letting her compete was a safety risk and unfair. While some media have reported those and other details, neither San Jose State nor the forfeiting teams have confirmed the school has a trans women’s volleyball player. The Associated Press is withholding the player’s name because she has not publicly commented on her gender identity. School officials also have declined an interview request with the player. Judge Crews referred to the athlete as an “alleged transgender” player in his ruling and noted that no defendant disputed that San Jose State rosters a transgender woman volleyball player. He said the players who filed the complaint could have sought relief much earlier, noting that the individual universities had acknowledged that not playing their games against San Jose State this season would result in a forfeit in league standings. He also said injunctions are meant to preserve the status quo. The conference policy regarding forfeiting for refusing to play against a team with a transgender player had been in effect since 2022 and the San Jose State player has been on the roster since 2022 – making that the status quo. The player competed at the college level three previous seasons, including two for San Jose State, drawing little attention. This season’s awareness of her identity led to an uproar among some players, pundits, parents and politicians in a political campaign year. The tournament starts Wednesday and continues Friday and Saturday. San Jose State is seeded second. The judge's order maintains the seedings and pairings for the tournament. Several teams refused to play against San Jose State during the season, earning losses in the official standings. Boise State and Wyoming each had two forfeits while Utah State and Nevada both had one. Southern Utah, a member of the Western Athletic Conference, was first to cancel against San Jose State this year. Nevada’s players stated they “refuse to participate in any match that advances injustice against female athletes,” without providing further details. Crews served as a magistrate judge in Colorado’s U.S. District Court for more than five years before President Joe Biden appointed him to serve as a federal judge in January of this year. Gruver reported from Cheyenne, Wyoming, and Hanson from Helena, Montana.

Wycombe Wanderers will be looking to preserve their status at the top of the League One table when they travel to LNER Stadium to face Lincoln City on Saturday afternoon. The two teams do battle for the first time since January when they shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw at Adams Park. © Imago Since suffering back-to-back defeats against Birmingham City and Crawley Town in mid-October, Lincoln have put together a six-game unbeaten run in all competitions, with eight points accumulated across their last four League One fixtures. Successive 2-1 home wins over Stockport County and Northampton Town were followed by consecutive away draws with Bristol Rovers and Exeter City, playing out a goalless stalemate with the latter last weekend. Michael Skubala 's side have picked up the same number of points on home soil as they have on the road (13 each) this term, and they currently sit sixth in the third-tier standings - occupying the final playoff spot - six points adrift of Saturday's opponents Wycombe, who also have a game in hand. Before facing third-placed Wrexham next Tuesday, Lincoln will focus on their encounter with a Wycombe outfit whom they have not lost against in their last five meetings, drawing three and winning two, including a 3-0 success in this exact fixture back in August of last season. The Imps will likely rely on their set-piece specialities to find the net this weekend, as they have scored more goals from dead-ball situations (excluding penalties) than any other side in League One so far this season (10), with five of their last nine league goals coming from such situations. © Imago Few would have envisaged Wycombe mounting a serious title challenge in League One at the start of the season, especially after they lost their opening two matches against Wrexham and title favourites Birmingham. However, the Chairboys have since picked up an impressive 32 points from a possible 36 available across their last 12 league games, winning each of their last six matches by an aggregate score of 16-3. No team in League One have won more away games (five) or collected more away points (17) than Wycombe (17) thus far, with Matt Bloomfield 's side most recently following up a thumping 5-0 win at Stockport with a slender 1-0 success at Wigan Athletic a fortnight ago. Wycombe were most recently in action on November 12 when they beat Crawley Town 2-1 at Adams Park in the EFL Trophy, a result that has secured top spot in Group J and a place in Friday's last-32 draw. The Chairboys will now turn their attention to Saturday's league fixture with Lincoln, whom they have failed to beat in each of their last four away league games, while they have won just one of their last eight such visits to LNER Stadium (D3 L4), failing to score in six of those games. © Imago Lincoln captain Paudie O'Connor , who was forced off at half time in the draw with Exeter with a dead leg, is yet to take part in training this week and is "touch-and-go" for Saturday's match, according to Skubala. Adam Jackson , Tom Hamer and Tom Bayliss all remains sidelined with long-term injuries, though, while Ethan Erhahon will have his fitness assessed after playing for 45 minutes last weekend following his recovery from injury. Bailey Cadamarteri is Lincoln's top scorer so far this season with five goals, and he is set to be joined in attack by target man Ben House , who has found the net just once in his last eight league games. As for Wycombe, they currently have a clean bill of health and Bloomfield is expected to recall a number of first-team stars who were rested for the EFL Trophy win over Crawley last time out. Franco Ravizzoli is set to be recalled between the sticks, while Jack Grimmer could be joined in a four-man defence by Joe Low , Caleb Taylor and Daniel Harvie . Josh Scowen and Aaron Morley are expected to link arms in centre-midfield, while top scorer Richard Kone - who has eight goals to his name - could be joined in attack by Fred Onyedinma , Cameron Humphreys and Daniel Udoh . Lincoln City possible starting lineup: Wickens; Montsma, O'Connor, Roughan; Darikwa, McGrandles, Moylan, Hamilton, Jefferies; Cadamarteri, House Wycombe Wanderers possible starting lineup: Ravizzoli; Grimmer, Low, Taylor, Harvie; Morley, Scowen; Onyedinma, Humphreys, Udoh; Kone Wycombe may have struggled in recent visits to Lincoln, but they travel to LNER Stadium in buoyant mood this weekend and in fine form, making them favourites to come out on top in this one. Lincoln will fancy their chances of success as they aim to climb up to third in the table, but we are backing a refreshed Chairboys outfit to claim maximum points from this intriguing contest.
