Secure investment in emerging technology

The SMA Energy System stands for longevity, maximum performance and top quality. Highly integrated solutions for PV power plants with varying system structures provide you with maximum flexibility in implementation and options for expansion at all times. That gives you the highest possible yields for over 20 years and guarantees maximum return on investment.

Benefits

Maximum energy yield

Increased competitiveness

No commodity price risk

Centralised system layout

A centralised system layout is ideally suited for large-scale, ground-mounted PV projects. A few large central inverters are used here.

Decentralised system layout

If the project basis is very heterogeneous, several smaller and easier-to-handle inverters can be arranged in the decentralised system layout.
