ABB India, the power and automation technology major, inaugurated a new solar inverter manufacturing facility in the city. The facility is set to double the solar inverter manufacturing capacity of the company.
The expansion follows earlier milestones achieved by ABB India last year – the first company to double the solar inverter installed base to 2 GW in a span of five months. ABB inverters manufactured at Nelamanagala, Bengaluru help power 40 per cent of the utility scale solar power generated in the country, the company said.
“ABB has also been powering solar projects across the country spanning the entire solar PV value chain, a key component of which has been our solar inverter technology, made in India,” said Sanjeev Sharma, CEO and Managing Director, ABB India.
The Bengaluru site manufactures ABB’s PVS800 central inverter series which have proven popular in India due to their ease of commissioning and reliable performance in even the harshest of climates.
