The best solar inverters in 2025: According to Australian installers

The striking heart of a solar system is his inverter, and nobody knows her better than the experts who work with you every day. It is time to announce the winners of the 2025 Solarquotes Installer ‘Choice Awards for Best Solar Inexplorers.

How did we examine our installers?

At the time of writing, we have a whopping 594 installers in our network across Australia.

161 found the time from their busy schedules to react to our survey.

We asked you a simple question:

If you install a system in your own house today, which solar inverter of the brand would you use?

Here are the results. So please.

Best solar inverter in Australia: 2025

Best solar inverter 2025: First place – Fronius

A Fronius Gen24 inverter that was installed by MC Electrical

Surprisingly, nobody surprisingly has with 26% of the voices that the Austrian manufacturer of high-end-ending manufacturers Fronius won Gold for his 5th year in a row.

Their call in Australia borders on legendary and known for well -supported, reliable products.

The Gen24 series is Fronius’ current residential inverter with a huge central fan and a radiator to keep it cool. Almost all of Fronius’ competitors avoid fans and only rely on a radiator. The disadvantage of a fan is noise, but the gene 24 only spends a gentle sum. The upward trend of a fan is that it keeps the inverter cooler and theoretically improves the efficiency and durability.

Remarkably, Primo-phase inverter are battery operations, but you have to pay about $ 1,000 if you receive your battery to update the inverter software.

On the Solarquotes website, Fronius inverter has an average review value of 4.8/5, which is based on over 8,600 reviews – a fantastic average score.

Best solar inverter 2025: Second place – Sonnenfrau

A Songrower SHRT -HYBRID inverter that is installed under an awning from DQ Electrical

SungRow has made it on the podium every year since we started these awards in 2021. This year they took silver with 19% of the votes.

You have the call to be a reliable brand in the middle area with a rocky battery pairing.

Your SGRs and SGRT encompasses their core offer with Shrs and shoots as a hybrid inverter that are designed for the combination with the SBR -HV series of batteries.

My Songrow -Hybrid inverter and my battery setup on my rental property.

On the Solarquotes website, SungRow inverter has an average customer review point of 4.7/5, which is based on over 4,000 reviews.

A disadvantage of the Sungrogrowen Hybrid inverter architecture is that the backup circuits go through the inverter so that they lose power against these circuits if the inverter fails. The easy way to mitigate this is to always install an emergency -bypass switch with a sun growe hybrid inverter.

Best solar inverter 2025: third place – Goodwe

A Goodwe DNS inverter that was installed in series Electrical and Solar

Goodwe takes bronze with 14% of the vote and makes reliable budget inverter. You have the call to simply install and are a favorite for many installers.

Since Goodwe units are thousands of dollars cheaper than premium brands such as Fronius, many installers and customers choose them. At the end of this article I will quantify the price difference between all winners.

On the Solarquotees website, Goodwe inverter has an average customer rating value of 4.7/5, which is based on over 2,500 reviews.

Best solar inverter 2025: Special mention – Sigenergy

The upper module with the logo is the Sigenergie hybrid inverter module. The two modules below are batteries. Installed by Energy Solution Center.

Although it lost two voices of bronze in Goodwe, Sigenergy deserves a mention as an emerging brand that broke into the Australian solar scene in 2024.

It is the early days, but installers like how easy it is to install Sigenergie units with an excellent app and commission that is strongly influenced by Teslas app (and this is a good thing).

They sit between Sungrow and Premium-End-Fronius industry.

I filmed The installation of a complete Sigen energy system – and was impressed.

What do you cost?

The pricing at the inverter level can be seen on my standard inverter and hybrid inverter comparison table.

To use an example-hier is the pricing for a 10 kw-e-phase inverter:

  • Fronio Gen24 10.0 First: $ 3,700
  • SungRow SG10RS: $ 2,300
  • Goodwe GW10K-MS-30: $ 1,300
  • SIENGY 6.0 kW (you don’t make 10 kW in phase): USD 1,800

With the Goodwe budget, you save over $ 2,000 compared to the premium end-fronius.

The question for consumers is: is Fronius’ reputation worth more 2,000 US dollars compared to the goodwe budget? This is a decision you can make.
