contents We consider extreme type-II superconductors modeled by the Ginzburg--Landau energy with a pinning term $a_\varepsilon(x)$, which we assume to be a bounded measurable function such that $b\leq a_\varepsilon(x)\leq 1$ for some constant $b>0$. A crucial feature of this type of superconductors is the occurrence of vortices, which appear above the so-called first critical field $H_{c_1}$. In this paper we estimate this value and characterize the behavior of the Meissner solution, the unique vortexless configuration that globally minimizes the energy below $H_{c_1}$. In addition, we show that beyond this value, for applied fields whose strength is slightly below the so-called superheating field $H_{sh}$, there exists a unique Meissner-type solution that locally minimizes the energy.
