Victorian solar power inverter producer Selectronic has struck a major deal with one of the world’s biggest solar companies to distribute their cutting edge solar inverters around the globe.

“This deal is a ringing endorsement of Victorian manufacturing with Germany – world leader in solar – turning to us for our high-quality products,” State Energy Minister, Nicholas Kotsiras, said

 “This is a great example of how the Victorian manufacturing sector can continue to succeed and create skilled employment and investment by pursuing excellence and innovation.”

Selectronic have developed a strong renewables business and built a reputation for their solar inverters, which convert the direct current output from photovoltaic solar panels into the alternating current required to power households and businesses.

Under the terms of the deal, KACO will adopt Selectronic’s SP Pro inverters and market them under their own brand through their international distribution channel.

The Victorian Coalition Government has supported Selectronic with funding under the Technology Trade and International Partnering Program to visit and exhibit at Intersolar, the world’s biggest solar exhibition in Munich, last year.
