Sungrow to Supply Inverter Solutions to 814 MWac Project In Qatar

Sungrow Unveils Residential Inverter Built with Recycled Material at REI 2023

Global leading inverter and energy storage system solution conglomerate Sungrow has announced that it will be supplying inverter solutions for a large solar power project in the Middle East. As per the announcement, it has signed a contract recently with Samsung C&T’s Engineering & Construction Group to supply its MV-integrated 1500V string inverter solution SG320HX to an 814 MWac PV project in Qatar.

The official statement of Sungrow held that the solar PV project is expected to be completed by 2024. It will become the largest solar plant in Qatar that will greatly increase the amount of local green energy, and effectively offset the carbon emissions of oil and gas resources which will help the country towards low-carbon transition.

This 814 MWac PV project signed is the second solar power plant locally built, and can generate approximately 1,800 GWh of clean electricity each year and reduce 900 thousand tons of carbon dioxide emissions, said Sungrow. It’s expected to become the main driver of the green development of local natural gas resources and carbon neutrality.

Juyoul Kim, Vice President, Samsung C&T, said, “The Qatar project is an important step for Samsung C&T to expand its global renewable energy business. We believe that this cooperation will be able to successfully complete the project and provide a demonstration for the world.”

James Wu, Senior VP, Sungrow, stated, “Qatar has become an important country in the global solar energy development and an important part of Sungrow’s business in the Middle East. It is a great honor to cooperate with Samsung C&T this time. Sungrow will continue to provide partners with high-quality PV and storage solutions based on its profound insight and project experience in the Middle East market, ensure timely delivery of projects and customer investment return, and accelerate the local energy transition.”

By mid-2022, Sungrow had installed over 269 GW of inverter in the projects worldwide. Recently, it had won an order from Voltalia in Brazil for the supply of 580 GW of solar inverters.
