The company says it began shipping single-phase residential inverter products from its Austin, Texas, facility to customers in Italy, France, and the Netherlands in late 2025. It’s the first time SolarEdge has exported US-manufactured residential inverters to European markets. That’s notable in a global solar industry where only a relatively small number of US manufacturers export hardware at scale, and US-made solar equipment still represents a tiny share of international trade. SolarEdge says shipments of commercial and industrial (C&I) solar products from its Florida factory are on track to begin in early 2026.
