“Known for its rich solar resources, the Middle East and North Africa area has seen growing demands for solar power in recent years. We are delighted to develop products that are in accordance with this trend, and also, we are determined to set up a complete and localized sales and service network to better benefit our customers,” said Professor Renxian Cao, President of Sungrow.

Sungrow has already shipped its SG125HV string inverter to various projects in China, the US, and India in 2017.
