Sungrow Signs Three Australian Distributors for 1.5 GW PV, 4 GWh BESS

• Sungrow signed distribution agreements with Solar Juice, Supply Partners and Raystech Group covering 1.5 GW of PV and 4 GWh of batteries.
• Residential systems account for 3 GWh of the storage volume, as Australia's home battery rebate reached 15.3 GWh of approved capacity.
• Sungrow gave no term, value or delivery schedule for the agreements.

Sungrow has signed three Australian distribution agreements covering 1.5 GW of photovoltaic volume and 4 GWh of battery storage, the company said on Nov. 6. The partners are Solar Juice, Supply Partners and Raystech Group.

The deals were among several signed at All-Energy Australia, held in Melbourne on Oct. 28-29. Solar Juice has the largest, 500 MW of PV and 2.5 GWh of batteries, Sungrow said in a statement. Of that storage, 2 GWh is for residential use and 500 MWh for commercial and industrial (C&I) use. Supply Partners expanded its cooperation with 500 MW and 1 GWh, half residential and half C&I. Raystech renewed its agreement for 500 MW and 500 MWh of residential batteries.

Sungrow did not define "PV volume." Its agreements signed a year earlier specified PV inverters, and the company describes itself as a PV inverter and storage provider.

The deals land in a fast-growing market for home batteries. Capacity approved under the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program reached 15.3 GWh by the end of September, up from 5.0 GWh at end-2025. The figures come from a statement by Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen citing Clean Energy Regulator data.

The agreements in numbers

• 62.5% of the 4 GWh sits with Solar Juice, against 25% for Supply Partners and 12.5% for Raystech (list.solar calculation).
• 3 GWh of the storage is residential and 1 GWh is commercial and industrial (list.solar calculation).
• 500 MW of PV volume appears in each of the three agreements.
• 1.5 GWh is the combined Supply Partners and Raystech storage volume, against 1.3 GWh in their 2025 agreements (list.solar calculation).
• 15.3 GWh of home battery capacity was approved under the federal program by the end of September.

At the 2025 show, Sungrow signed 2026 agreements with Raystech for 800 MW of PV inverters and 1 GWh of batteries. Supply Partners' deal covered 300 MW and 300 MWh. Tradezone joined that round with no volumes given.

"Our longstanding relationships with Solar Juice, Raystech Group, and Supply Partners reflect the importance of mutual trust, shared values, and local expertise," said Steven Zhu, vice president of Sungrow APAC.

Sungrow gave no term, value or delivery schedule for the new agreements, and its statement does not describe the volumes as firm orders.
