Michael's Deye Inverters Review & Verdict
Michael Bloch covers the latest developments in home electrification for SolarQuotes.
China's Deye has been manufacturing inverters since 2007 and has been selling them in Australia since 2021. In early 2025, the company told us it was confident Deye will become one of the top three players in the Australian market within the next three years. We'll see.
Deye Inverters: Pros & Cons
- Well-established company
- Wide range of products - string, hybrid and micro inverters
- No Australian office
About Deye
Ningbo Deye Inverter Technology Co., Ltd. (or just Deye) was founded in China in 2007. It offers single and three-phase string inverters, hybrid inverters, and microinverters.

Company Info
Deye has its headquarters in the city of Ningbo. This is 140km south of Shanghai in Zhejiang province. This is also where they do most of their manufacturing, but they also have a facility in Malaysia. The company was an early producer of hybrid inverters. These are used with home or business batteries and remain a special focus for the company. Deye says that by the end of 2025, they had produced over 5 million inverters, including 2 million hybrid ones. But one of the reasons they've produced so many inverters is that, in addition to hybrid and string inverters - which are standard solar inverters, they also make microinverters, and as their name suggests, these can be quite small.
Deye also produces home batteries, and these have been sold here since 2024. They aren't currently installed in large numbers, but Deye says their presence will expand.
No Australian Office
Deye doesn't have an Australian office. This makes whoever imported the panels responsible for the manufacturer's warranty. This makes it vital to check who is responsible for the warranty and to keep a record of it, as it will be easy to forget years down the line when you may need to make a warranty claim.
Deye Inverters In Australia
Deye has been a late arrival on the local scene, entering the Australian and New Zealand markets in 2022, but says its 2024 sales here increased fivefold compared to 2023. In terms of Clean Energy Council approval, there were around 48 Deye single/three-phase string and hybrid inverters listed as of March 2025.
Microinverters
Deye microinverters offer capacities ranging from 300W to 2.25 kW. The upper end blurs the line between string and micro, and can support up to 4 solar panels. However, no Deye microinverters are currently listed by the CEC.
String Inverters
Deye single-phase string inverters are available in power ranges from 1.5-10.5kW, with single or dual maximum power point tracking (MPPT). Deye three-phase string inverters have capacities ranging from 3kW to 15kW in what would be considered their residential range. The three-phase models in these capacities all have dual MPPT.
Hybrid Inverters
Deye hybrid inverters available here include single-phase 3-16kW units and three-phase units in the 8-50kW range. All single-phase hybrids have two MPPTs and support low-voltage batteries, while for the three-phase devices, there are 2 - 4 MPPTs and (compatible) low- or high-voltage batteries are supported depending on the model. Deye hybrid inverters are compatible with selected battery models from dozens of brands, including Pylon, Jinko, Fox ESS and Dyness.
Warranty Details
Deye provides a 10 year warranty in Australia, and the warranty document is available on their website. Because they don't have an Australian office, whoever imports the product into Australia will be responsible for it, so it's important to be confident the importer will be around long term.

A top tip as well is to get your installer to change the frequency of monitoring. By default, it logs only every 5 minutes which is not enough when you’re trying to maximise your solar use and dealing with partly cloudy days. It can be increased to 1 minute, which works pretty well once you get your eye in and know how your panels and loads are working. Would also recommend a Catch Solar relay to help in this regard as they provide live monitoring.

Would like to see the app become more user friendly for the off grid system - has a lot of options for monitoring power and $ rates when selling to the grid.
