General Electric (GE) is tripling its solar and battery energy storage Power Electronics Systems manufacturing capacity by the end of 2022 to 9 GW per annum, linked to strong growth in backlog over the past few months and a robust demand outlook.
The systems are manufactured at GE’s newly launched Renewable Hybrids factory.
Earlier in 2022, GE announced the opening of its Renewable Hybrids manufacturing site in Vallam, near Chennai, India.
The site manufactures GE’s Power Conversion Solution called FLEXINVERTER (formerly known as LV5+), as well as the FLEXRESERVOIR, and helps integrate them with the FLEXIQ solution, from GE Renewable Hybrids’s FLEX portfolio, designed to solve customers’ needs for dispatchable, green MWhs in Solar, Storage and Hybrid applications.
