As of the end of March, KACO new energy has booked 600-MW in global inverter orders.
KACO new energy Group attributes this to the mid-2016 launch of its blueplanet 50.0 TL3 INT inverter model, which it said has led to significant growth in the Middle East, Turkey and India.
“We laid the foundation for this strong first quarter back in 2016 with our technology, sales and marketing activities. We were very keen to establish long-term partnerships. The best example of this is the framework contracts that we have put in place both in Asia and in Turkey,” said managing partner Ralf Hofmann. The total order quantity represents double what the company had booked in at the same point in 2016. In light of this, the annual forecast for the group as a whole is now approaching 2.5 GW.
In the USA, the company is focusing primarily on central inverter solutions. Most in demand in this regard is the Integrated Power Station (IPS), which has all the accessories required for utility-scale power plant projects. The IPS is supplied from the factory in San Antonio, Texas.
