Delta, a global leader in energy and smart environmental solutions headquartered in the Netherlands, recently celebrated the groundbreaking ceremony for its new development center in Emmendingen near Freiburg. Scheduled for completion in early 2027, the new facility will provide approximately 7,480 square meters of space for over 200 employees in research and development, engineering, business development, and management. The goal is to support future expansion, invest in local talent, promote collaboration, and drive product innovation for local and international markets. Delta's own smart energy-saving solutions will help the new building achieve DGNB Gold certification for sustainable construction—a benchmark for energy efficiency and environmental compatibility in Germany.

At the groundbreaking ceremony, Stefan Schlatterer, mayor of Emmendingen, said, "We are very pleased to welcome Delta, a leading global technology company, to our city. Delta's commitment to energy efficiency and smart infrastructure will not only strengthen our local economy, but also reflects our shared vision of a sustainable future.“

Andreas Kostrzewa, Managing Director of Delta Energy Systems, was also positive. ”Our new regional location in Emmendingen is a strong signal of Delta's long-term commitment to Germany and the EMEA region. We are growing – not only in size, but also in performance. This region, with its focus on sustainability, innovation, and the circular economy, provides the ideal foundation for this growth. The excellent availability of skilled workers and a strong innovation ecosystem make Emmendingen the perfect location for the next chapter in our development."

The decision to expand in the Lerchacker industrial park in Emmendingen follows Delta's continued growth at its nearby Teningen site, which has reached its capacity limits. The new location offers strong municipal support for sustainable development, excellent infrastructure, and access to a vibrant regional ecosystem with highly skilled technical professionals.
