Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.
Benchmark anchor. The score uses the highest exact current power bin named on the V2 sheet linked from Sungrow India's SG5/6/8/10/12RT-P2 card. SG12RT on sungrow_sg_rt.json is a different identity. Scored model: SG12RT-P2 · checked 2026-09-03. Evidence.

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.
