Fronius was founded in 1945 by Günter Fronius in Pettenbach, Austria. Originally a specialist repair shop for electrical equipment, the company expanded into battery charging and welding technology before pioneering solar electronics in the early 1990s. Today, it remains a family-owned private company, managed by the third generation of the Fronius family.

Manufacturing for these units primarily takes place in Sattledt, Austria, which has served as the company's central production and logistics hub since 2007. The facility is notable for its sustainable design, utilizing solar power and ice storage systems for temperature control.
