SMA Repowering is an SMA service that gets existing Trafo inverters working again by replacing modules inside them, using the Repowering Component package. To get an offer, contact the SMA repowering team by email or call the SMA Service Line. For plants with Trafo inverters from other manufacturers, the repowering team handles technical questions, but repowering is not possible if the plant needs grounding. There are no standard solutions for connecting a new inverter to an existing communication system during repowering, so each case is worked out individually with the repowering team. System compatibility used to be checked with the SMA Repowering App. That app has been removed from the app stores, and SMA plans to move its functions into the SMA 360° App and the SMA website.
