Watch out for
Deye
The cheap 6kW 'OG' off-grid line is a different, lower-spec product to the SUN-SG hybrids.
Growatt
Growatt's own batteries are not priced publicly in Nigeria, so pair with Felicity, Deye or ITEL packs.

Deye vs Growatt: common questions
Which is cheaper in Nigeria, Deye or Growatt?
Growatt is. On the inverters we price (checked October 2026), Growatt runs ₦106k – ₦157k / kVA and Deye runs ₦119k – ₦419k / kVA. Deye costs about 2.0× more per kVA than Growatt across the inverters we price.
Is Deye worth the extra over Growatt in Nigeria?
Deye costs about 2.0× more per kVA than Growatt across the inverters we price. Deye is documented as the pick for homes that will grow, 3-phase supply, and anyone who wants to see production on a phone. Growatt is documented as the pick for the sensible middle: better support than budget brands at about half the price of Deye. Decide on those lines rather than on the brand name — and remember the price you pay depends heavily on where the unit is bought.
What sizes of inverters do Deye and Growatt offer in Nigeria?
We track 4 priced Growatt models from 3–12kVA, and 7 priced Deye models from 5–16kVA. Sizes outside those ranges exist but were not publicly priced in Nigeria when we last checked, in October 2026.
What warranty do Deye and Growatt come with in Nigeria?
Deye: 5 years typical, extendable. Growatt: no warranty term published for the Nigerian market that we could verify. Warranty is only worth what the seller will honour, which is why we buy through distributors who register the unit.
