Sungrow

The workhorse hybrid inverter — up to four MPPTs for awkward Australian roofs, arc-fault protection standard, priced well below the European brands, paired with a battery installers now treat as near-premium.

The Sungrow range.

Inverters 7

SUNGROW · INVERTERSSingle-phase hybrid

Sungrow SH-RS hybrid inverter

A single-phase inverter that runs your solar panels and a Sungrow high-voltage battery from one box, switching to backup in under 10 milliseconds when the grid drops. The 8 and 10 kW models add a 63 A bypass for whole-home backup.

From $2,399 including GST

SUNGROW · INVERTERSSingle-phase, solar only

Sungrow SG-RS solar inverter

A single-phase solar-only inverter that turns your panels' power into household power. It has three separate panel inputs, so it handles roofs where panels face different directions, but it has no battery connection.

From $956 including GST

See the details →
SUNGROW · INVERTERSThree-phase hybrid

Sungrow SH10RT three-phase hybrid

A quiet three-phase hybrid that manages solar, a Sungrow battery and a backup circuit for essential loads. In an outage it keeps backed-up circuits running on all three phases, including unbalanced loads.

From $4,114 including GST

SUNGROW · INVERTERSLarge three-phase hybrid

Know before you buy

The honest picture.

Where they stand

Upper-mid, and genuinely moved up from value. Evidence: 1st in the 2026 SolarQuotes Installer's Choice Awards for inverters with 27% of 125 installer votes, and 2nd for batteries with 21%; SunWiz's 2026 awards, built on Clean Energy Regulator REC-registry data for calendar 2025, named Sungrow the #1 residential inverter manufacturer in Australia, #1 commercial inverter and #1 commercial ESS.

The warranty, in practice

Ten years standard on premium residential inverters (five on the standard range), ten years on the SBR and SBH high-voltage batteries, five on the SBP low-voltage battery. Unusually good for the price point: Sungrow explicitly pays a service rebate covering labour — about $150 per standard site visit — plus up to $200 for ground transport and up to $200 to freight the unit, though rebates must be claimed within six months of claim approval.

Who it suits

Mainstream Canberra and NSW households who want one brand across inverter and battery from a supplier that has been here 14 years, and complex or multi-orientation roofs that genuinely need three or four MPPTs.

What to watch

The communications dongle, smart meter and data logger carry only a one-to-two year warranty while the inverter has ten — and since connectivity is now effectively mandatory in some jurisdictions and increasingly required elsewhere, budget to replace that dongle at your own cost.
