No inverter in the fleet publishes a year-by-year performance or output guarantee the way panels and batteries do - this shows the covered term against the market-typical term and where every scored inverter’s term lands (grey dots, sized by model count), plus what the warranty actually includes.

Market context

Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.

Benchmark anchor. The 2.5 kW and differently named 4.0 kW marketing rows are excluded from the current regulator intersection. Scored model: H1-6.0-E-G2 · checked 2026-08-27. Evidence.

Sources & references · checked 2026-08-30

Strong evidence coverage

25 of 25 scored criteria link directly to a published source.

Values marked estimated, derived, or not found remain visible on the audit sheet and do not carry the same evidential weight as a linked source. Coverage measures direct links, not an independent guarantee that a claim is correct.

Record revision. Exact family technical sources, Australian warranty and current regulator snapshot checked 2026-08-27. First-market US and DE overlay review 2026-08-30: official regional catalogues recorded; Australian overlays and scores unchanged.
