📘 Program Overview
The Sungrow Trade-In Program allows eligible Sungrow end-users to upgrade their existing inverter by trading it in through an accredited Solar Company. A trade-in value may be applied as a deduction toward the cost of a new Sungrow System purchase.
Note: The program is coordinated by Sungrow Australia Group Pty Ltd (Sungrow), the authorized importer of Sungrow products in Australia. However, Sungrow does not sell products directly to end-users and is not a party to any commercial contract between the end-user and their Solar Company/R
eseller.

Authorize the Solar Company to manage the entire trade-in process, including submission of the application and return of the trade-in inverter.
Trade in a unit that meets Sungrow’s return condition criteria, such as being operable and having a visible serial number etc. The inverter must be collected by Sungrow (or its authorised logistics partner).
📋 Program Conditions
No Direct Compensation from Sungrow
Sungrow does not provide trade-in value, discounts, or payments directly to the end-user. All pricing, trade-in credits, and upgrades are managed by the solar company. The trade-in credit is non-refundable, non-transferable, and can only be applied toward the Sungrow product upgrade at the specific site where the trade-in occurs.
Ownership Acknowledgement
By proceeding, the end-users need to confirm that they are the lawful owner of the inverter being traded in.
By participating, the end-users must authorise a Solar Company to apply and manage the trade-in process on their behalf. In some cases, the solar company may delegate this process to a Reseller.
Solar Company as Main Contact
The authorised solar company will manage all the trade-in participation, including application submission, inverter removal and return, installation of the new unit, and communication with Sungrow. Sungrow will communicate directly with the solar company regarding application status, required documentation, and product logistics.
