Global solar and energy storage technology provider Sungrow has invested €230m ($271.86m) to establish its first manufacturing facility in Europe, in a bid to contribute to the continent’s clean energy manufacturing ecosystem.
The new plant, which is scheduled to become operational within the next 12 months, will be built on a 65,400m² site in Wałbrzych in Poland’s Lower Silesia region.
The factory will produce photovoltaic inverters and energy storage systems, with a planned annual capacity of up to 20GW for inverters and 12.5 gigawatt-hours for energy storage solutions.

Sungrow said the decision to locate the facility in Poland was driven by the need to strengthen Europe’s clean energy supply chain by manufacturing closer to customers. By shifting key production activities to Europe, the company aims to reduce delivery times, improve logistics efficiency and enhance resilience across the regional renewable energy market.
Company representatives also highlighted Lower Silesia’s strong base of skilled labour in electronics, automation and advanced manufacturing as a critical factor in the site selection. Local authorities welcomed the investment, noting that it reinforces Poland’s growing role in Europe’s clean energy value chain and supports the region’s transition toward high-tech and sustainable industries.
Once completed, the Wałbrzych factory is expected to play a central role in Sungrow’s long-term European strategy, combining large-scale manufacturing with advanced quality and safety standards.
