SMA Reclaims Spot as No. 1 Commercial Inverter Supplier in U.S.

“We are thrilled to regain our ranking as the top commercial inverter supplier in the U.S.,” said Charles Ellis, vice president of distributed sales for SMA America. “Last year we invested heavily in the commercial market with new solutions and new service offerings, and we are grateful to our customers who chose our inverters for their projects.”

In 2017, SMA introduced the Sunny Tripower CORE1 inverter for commercial installations—a highly-anticipated and popular product that has boosted the company’s U.S. commercial business. SMA also recently introduced O&M services for commercial installations in an effort to further invest in the commercial market.

With a total installed inverter power of more than 12 GW in the region, SMA is a leading specialist in PV system technology in North America. The company provides comprehensive products and solutions ranging from module level power electronics through string and central inverters, intelligent energy management systems for households and commercial enterprises as well as turnkey solutions for utility scale PV power plants. In addition to its broad portfolio of technical solutions, SMA’s has a leading position as an operations and maintenance (O&M) supplier and ranks among the top service providers in North America.
