A founder-led, vertically integrated clean energy manufacturer. Solar modules, TOPCon cells, utility services, and advanced technology — operated under one platform, anchored in tribal-member ownership, veteran leadership, and community partnership.Tribal-Member Owned · Veteran Led · American Manufacturing
Partner with tribal nations, veteran networks, capital sources, technology providers, and host communities on terms that make them co-owners and co-governors of what gets built — not vendors, not counterparties.
Manufacture solar cells, modules, and recycling capacity on American soil. Originate PPAs. Deploy operating assets. Produce the cash flow that makes the mission self-sustaining rather than grant-dependent.
Convert every platform — manufacturing, utility, technology — into durable economic lift for the people who host it. Jobs. Tax revenue. Cultural preservation. Veteran employment. Tribal-member economic participation.
The Company's founder and 71% owner is a citizen of the Chickasaw Nation — a tribal member at the top of the cap table, not a minority partner structure layered on top of non-tribal ownership. The Company is independently owned and is not owned by, controlled by, or affiliated with the Chickasaw Nation as a sovereign government. That distinction matters for federal contracting, tribal-member procurement preferences, and the integrity of the Company's claim to serve Indigenous communities as a peer.
The Company is led by a United States Army combat veteran. Roughly one in four positions on the Company's hiring plan is designed to be filled by transitioning veterans, with a particular focus on veterans managing post-traumatic stress. Talent strategy, not charity.
HelioForge combines solar cell manufacturing, module assembly, and end-of-life photovoltaic recycling on a single American footprint. Domestically-made modules qualify for the full Section 45X stack — $0.07/W cells + $0.04/W modules = $0.11/W per integrated module — plus the domestic content bonus and energy community adder. No foreign-cell competitor can match that stack.
NSTC holds pending patent filings and active R&D programs in co-dependent microgrids, floating solar, water-cooled data center microgrids, atmospheric water generation, graphene supercapacitor integration, green hydrogen, and aquaponics-integrated facilities for rural food and economic security.

Atlas Plant (600 MW module assembly), Nexus Plant (1 GW TOPCon cell production with Tainergy technology transfer), and Horizon Plant (6,000-ton/year PV recycling) operating as a single integrated platform. $310M allocated for the platform across the nation.
Joint venture with Little River Holdings and Native American Utility Company. 600 MW solar module manufacturing plus 200K-panel/year PV recycling on a 10+ acre industrial parcel with Lake Michigan frontage.
Full-stack utility origination, PPA structuring, FERC/PURPA/NERC regulatory, and engineering / procurement / construction for tribal and commercial counterparties. Phased hiring across 2026–2027.

Energy is the quiet economy beneath every other economy. It is growth. It is leverage. It is, honestly, the closest thing an industrial system offers to real freedom.
