The facility will produce single phase (2kW-6kW) and three phase string inverters, and NEMA 3R 250kW, 300kW and 400kW central inverters.
In the future, the product range will include 2.5MW inverters for wind applications.
Production will commence in October 2010 and the new facility will reach an annual inverter production capacity of 1GW by mid 2011.
Power-One has been able to expand capacity with the recent commencement of Canadian manufacturing and the expansion of its European plant, which will result in global capacity to annually produce more than 4GW of inverters by year-end 2010.
In addition, the company plans to launch Chinese production in the fourth quarter with products specifically designed for the requirements of Asian markets.
