What we can tell you

Read from the figures on this page. No review written yet.

30 kWh sits in the big home band (30 to 40 kWh).
It is CEC-approved, which is a condition of both the federal STC discount and the WA Battery Scheme.
We can't score it: a value score needs a price and full specs, and without them any number would be guesswork.

Key specs, in plain terms

The numbers that matter for a home. The full datasheet is below.

Usable capacity: 30kWh; How much energy it stores for you to use
Continuous power: 21.12kW; How much it can run at once: enough for a whole home, air conditioning included
Round-trip efficiency: 100%; How much of the energy you store comes back out
Depth of discharge: 100%; You can use the whole battery, not just part of it
Warranty: 10yr; 70% of capacity guaranteed at the end of it
Battery chemistry: LFP; Lithium iron phosphate, the long-cycle-life type

Warranty and support

Sungrow offers a 10-year warranty covering defects. Claims must be made through the installer, and the warranty excludes damages from incorrect installation and environmental limits.

Product: 10 years; not transferable; full replacement
At year 10: At least 70% of capacity
Throughput: 112 MWh
Installation: Must be installed by an SAA-accredited installer
Support: Australian officeSungrow Australia; 15 years in the Australian market. Direct manufacturer warranty. Australian consumer law applies.
Perth heat: Rated only to 25°C. Perth summers can get hotter than that, so it needs to go indoors or in a cooled space.
