TOLEDO (AP) — Vice President Joe Biden is planning a visit to a new solar panel maker near here next week.

Biden is expected to talk about green jobs for middle-class workers at the headquarters of the Willard & Kelsey Solar Group.

The company in Perrysburg near Toledo plans to begin large-scale production this year of its thin-film solar panels.

It will be Biden’s first trip to northwest Ohio since the 2008 campaign.
