Why SMA

Proven Expertise

Backed by more than 25+ years of grid-integration expertise, over 160 GW+ deployed globally and more than 10 GW of SMA inverter capacity installed across Australia, SMA helps data centre developers address grid constraints, unlock capacity and accelerate time to power.

Full Support

One Team. Every Stage. Zero handoffs. From design and commissioning to service and support, SMA helps data centers deploy faster, operate more reliably and scale with confidence.

Ready Solutions

Modern data centres need scalable power architectures that can respond to dynamic AI loads, evolving operational requirements and changing grid conditions. SMA delivers integrated, grid-ready solutions designed to support reliable growth.

Proven Architectures, Ready to Scale

Modern data centers demand energy infrastructure that can adapt to evolving power requirements, operational priorities and grid conditions. That’s why SMA delivers flexible, proven architectures designed to support a wide range of deployment strategies - without compromising reliability, scalability or speed to deployment.

SMA's three purpose-built data center power architectures, SMA GridAssist, SMA GridLink AC, and SMA GridLink DC, deliver flexible solutions for evolving energy infrastructure needs. Supporting both grid-connected and islanded operation, these scalable architectures help data center developers overcome grid constraints, enhance reliability and accelerate time to power. Combined with advanced software, a full suite of digital services and expert engineering support, SMA helps streamline deployment, minimize commissioning risk and prepares data centers for the 800VDC future (arriving in 2027).
