As previously announced, we would like to regularly provide you with information on the status quo as well as on the current developments regarding "solar inverter component shortages and delivery times."

The situation in the semiconductor market has improved slightly in the past few weeks, and this is also reflected in our current delivery quantities. Today, it appears that this trend will continue during the second half of the year. We still have no reason to assume, however, that the situation will improve completely. Important components still cannot be delivered in the quantities required, and the semiconductor industry's efforts to increase production capacity are slow at best. As a result, various industry sectors still continue to face increased delivery times – and the same applies to solar inverters. Due to this fact, we still cannot make full use of our recently established production capacity, which now totals about 11 Gigawatt.

We will continue to do everything we can to ensure that you will be able to make reliable plans for the future, and we will provide you with further information and updates on any new development.
