SolarEdge Technologies, Inc., a global leader in smart energy solutions, has announced that its U.S.-made solar inverters now meet the requirements of the Build America, Buy America (BABA) Act. This includes its upcoming 480V Commercial & Industrial (C&I) product line. With this certification, SolarEdge can now take part in federally funded infrastructure projects and grants. The achievement also strengthens domestic manufacturing and supports job growth at the company’s facilities in Florida and Texas.
Aaron Wilson, CEO of Solar One, said “At Solar One, we recognize SolarEdge’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge inverter solutions. Their upcoming BABA-compliant 480V DC optimized inverter solutions for C&I applications will be immensely valuable to our end customers and the long-term viability of their investments. SolarEdge’s focus on safety, power optimization, and their advanced monitoring capabilities makes them the clear choice for Commercial and Industrial projects.”
Craig Collins, Senior Associate at PAE Engineers, mentioned “SolarEdge’s BABA-compliant inverter portfolio, especially their 480V commercial solutions, will enable us to confidently pursue federally funded projects with technology that maximizes system performance and design flexibility. This compliance helps us deliver optimal solutions for communities seeking to lower their energy costs while supporting domestic manufacturing.”
John Carroll, Vice President, C&I North America at SolarEdge Technologies, stated “By manufacturing these advanced systems domestically and achieving BABA compliance, our C&I inverter solution in particular will be able to promote the deployment of premium U.S. solar technology across federal infrastructure projects, supporting American jobs and innovation.”
SolarEdge’s BABA-compliant portfolio features 480V and 208V Three Phase Inverters, Three Phase Inverters with Synergy Technology (C651U and C652U Power Optimizers), as well as Single Phase SolarEdge Home Hub inverters and U650 Power Optimizers. By meeting BABA requirements for its planned DC-optimized inverter solutions, SolarEdge helps developers and EPCs comply with federal infrastructure standards while ensuring high system performance, safety, and reliability.
