SMA opens German inverter factory with more than 60 GW of annual capacity

The Gigawatt Factory opened on September 17 as SMA expands its focus on large energy infrastructure and European manufacturing. Its production platform is designed to supply the power-conversion systems required to integrate renewables, stabilize grids and support increasingly electrified industrial and digital loads. Capacity above 60 GW gives the facility strategic importance as Europe works to strengthen domestic supply chains for critical energy equipment.
