Company Description

SMA Solar Technology AG develops, produces and sells solar inverters and monitoring systems for photovoltaic applications. SMA is the worldʼs largest producer in this segment with sales in excess of 1,92 billion Euro in 2010 and is the only vendor that has a product range with the matching inverter type for any module type and any power class. This applies for grid tied applications as well as island and backup operation.

The inverter is technologically the most important component in any solar power system: it converts the direct current generated in photovoltaic cells into alternating current suitable for the grid. In addition, it is an intelligent system manager, responsible for yield monitoring and grid management. Solar inverters are characterized by a particularly high efficiency. The Sunny Mini Central produced by SMA already has an efficiency of over 98 %, which allows for increased electricity production.

SMAʼs business model is driven by technological progress. Due to its flexible and scalable production, SMA is in a position to quickly respond to customer demands and promptly implement product innovations. This allows the Company to easily keep pace with the dynamic market trends of the photovoltaic industry and at the same time absorb short-term fluctuations in demand for solar inverters.

SMA Solar Technology AG is headquartered in Niestetal, near Kassel (Germany), and is represented on four continents by 17 foreign subsidiaries. This group of companies employs more than 5,500 employees (incl. temporary staff) and has been distinguished several times in previous years with awards for its outstanding performance as an employer. Since June 27, 2008, the Company has been listed in the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (S92), and since September 22, 2008, the Companyʼs shares have been listed in the TecDAX. In 2010, SMA generated earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of € 516.8 million from a turnover of more than €1.92 billion. This corresponds to an EBIT margin of 26.9 %.

SMA expects the solar market in Japan to experience above average growth rates and to further increase the relevance as one of the most important markets in Asia. In order to provide innovative inverter solutions to the fast-growing number of Japanese customers, SMA will establish a sales & service subsidiary in the Tokyo area in 2011. With a current market share of 40% globally, SMA offers an excellent base for further growth. In order to ensure our success throughout Japan, we are offering a challenging career opportunity to further expand the growing solar market.
