Renewable energy, once just a niche segment of the broader energy industry, is growing rapidly and becoming an important source of power in many regions across the country. At the helm of this change is SMA India — a beacon of innovation and reliability in the solar energy space.
A subsidiary of SMA Solar Technology AG, SMA India was instrumental in powering one of the country’s earliest large solar PV plants with an SMA central inverter. Since its formal inception in October 2010, it has carved out a name for itself in the photovoltaic (PV) and storage system sectors. Some of their products including Sunny Tripower CORE2 and Sunny Highpower PEAK3 inverters are now used in various applications across the country. The PEAK3 inverter focuses on maximum yield and optimal plant availability and the CORE2, which is tailored for medium to large-scale commercial PV systems, offers unparalleled flexibility.
Commenting on one of SMA’s recent offerings, the Sunny Highpower PEAK 3, Cyriac Loyola, Head of Application Engineering Large Scale Solutions – India South East Asia and South Korea, SMA says,” PEAK3 is a future-proof solution tailored to our consumers’ needs. With over 20 years of utility experience behind its development, the PEAK3 system solution offers central handling, decentralized system capabilities, and a modular concept, making it an unbeatable choice. Its powerful supplements ensure optimal performance for large PV plants, ensuring your investment grows with your requirements.”
In the decade since then, SMA has diversified its offerings to meet the changing energy needs in the country. They provide solutions for home, commercial industrial, and utility large-scale applications, including efficient battery inverters, system solutions for PV and storage, and intelligent energy management systems. SMA inverters, installed worldwide, contribute to reducing approximately 63 million tons of CO2 annually. They have also crossed the 125GW+ cumulative installed capacity threshold, showcasing their capacity to tackle diverse terrains and climatic conditions across the globe.
Our commitment goes beyond providing top-tier solar solutions; it’s about empowering communities, fostering sustainable growth, and paving the way for a greener tomorrow. Every project we undertake is a step closer to this vision, ensuring that we’re not just meeting the energy needs of today but building a resilient infrastructure for generations to come,” says Abhijeet More, Sales Head India – Home & Commercial Business, SMA India.
Business is one aspect of SMA India’s success, the other two are education and empowerment. The SMA Solar Academy in Thane has trained numerous engineers in space. The academy’s mission aligns with the company’s vision of facilitating energy transition through knowledge and practical skills.
As the country moves towards more sustainable forms of energy, SMA India is already championing the solar revolution with their technology, expert knowledge, and commitment, collectively ushering us towards a greener future.
