Sungrow Expands in Europe: Sungrow to Build Its First European Production Facility for Inverters and Battery Storage Systems in Poland

Munich (Germany) - Sungrow is expanding its presence in the European market and is building its first production facility on the continent in Wa?brzych, in the Lower Silesia region of Poland.

The manufacturer of inverters and energy storage systems announced this move recently. With this investment, the company aims to strengthen its industrial base in Europe.

The plant will cover an area of 65,400 square meters. According to the company, Sungrow is investing around €230 million. Commissioning is planned within the next twelve months. In the long term, around 400 jobs are expected to be created, primarily for skilled workers in the fields of renewable energy and industrial manufacturing.

“This new facility marks an important milestone for Sungrow in Europe. It allows us to be closer to our customers, respond more effectively to market needs, and will be a cornerstone of Sungrow’s strategy to bolster European supply-chain stability while creating skilled employment,” said Shawn Shi, President of Sungrow Europe.

The plan is to establish series production with an annual capacity of up to 20 gigawatts for inverters and 12.5 gigawatt-hours for energy storage systems. Sungrow announced that it will implement modern manufacturing and quality assurance processes to meet the technical requirements of the European market.

The regional economy also attaches great importance to the project. Marcin Lerner, President of the Management Board of the Wałbrzych Special Economic Zone, stated: “As the Wałbrzych Special Economic Zone, we are constantly building a friendly ecosystem for the development of regional, national and international business. The Sungrow investment highlights Poland’s growing strategic importance within Europe’s clean-energy value stream.”

With the site in Lower Silesia, Sungrow also aims to optimize logistics and delivery times. “We want to recruit locally and grow together with the communities,” Shi added. Sungrow has been active in Europe since 2005, and the company’s European headquarters is located in Munich.
