IPP

SMA's large-scale business is transitioning from a transaction-driven integrator model toward a more asset-owner-driven model with IPPs and storage players, which should fundamentally change both margin structure and competitive positioning.

The effect will be longer sales cycles, higher technical requirements, but also potentially more recurring service and software revenue.

Outlook 2026



Changes in the global political landscape will play a significant role



United States Europe Australia
  • The Supreme Court ruling restricts executive tariff authority significantly; the White House now needs the support of the Congress for any new tariffs

  • A temporary 10% global tariff for 150 days applied immediately, but under no legal structure

  • EU announced acceptance of maximum 15% tariffs laid out in existing trade deal

  • Existing tariffs on aluminum, steel, copper and special Chinese goods remain enforced

  • FEOC reinforces the importance of trusted system technologies

  • Currency exposure from high revenue share in USD can lead to negative or positive FX-effects

  • The Industry Accelerator Act intensifies "Made in Europe" Industrial policy; inverters and batteries are among the benefiting technology's

    Germany
  • The "Netzpaket" creates uncertainty on the expansion of battery storage in Germany

  • The first leak of the "EEG" revision shows some HBS barriers but also accelerates the market integration in favor of HBS

  • Additional demand for Large Scale & Project Solutions capacity until 2035

    • Regulatory and permitting delays remain a major bottleneck

    • Grid connection delays and infrastructure

      constraints remain

    • Government decided to expand the Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS), which contains a strong policy push for storage and system integration

    • Government decided on a national coordination of

priority projects (incl. transmission and storage)

SMA Solar Technology 16



Sales and EBITDA guidance range reflects persistent uncertainty due to trade

barriers, geopolitical conflicts and potential impacts from the new EEG legislation

SMA Solar Technology

Management comments
  • Expected Large Scale sales slightly above the high

    level of previous year. EBIT below last year due to higher costs for service expansion to cover growing installed base, currency effects and less capitalized R&D projects.

  • Expected HBS sales above previous year with EBIT also above last year due to restructuring and transformation program, but still not back in black.

  • Additional headwinds may result from changes in legislation, uncertainties about potential refunds of

tariffs in the US and FX development
