MUNICH, June 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — At Intersolar Europe 2026, Huawei's 506 kW Smart String inverter (SUN2000-506KTL), won the smarter E AWARD 2026 in the "Photovoltaics" category, also the only award-winning photovoltaic inverter in utility scenario. This marks Huawei obtained one of the highest recognition in the PV industry.
Huawei's new flagship product – the SUN2000-506KTL is the first 500kW+ string inverter that commercialized in the industry. It's not just the simple upgrade in power & voltage on the previous generation of SUN2000-330KTL. The SUN2000-506KTL delivers 3 pioneering breakthroughs: industry's first 1000Vac PV string inverter, industry's first grid-forming string inverter and with industry's highest power density. It provides customers with 4 core benefits – optimized investment returns, enhanced grid-forming capabilities, efficient O&M and superior safety & reliability, and elevating the innovation of smart string inverter to a new level.
As the flagship product of Huawei's next-generation utility-scale Smart PV solution FusionSolar9.0, the 506KTL string inverter is already in large-scale deployment. Since 2025, Huawei rolled out the solution across diverse scenarios in the Chinese market, and international adoption is accelerating rapidly. More than 10GW of projects globally are currently under construction using FusionSolar9.0, as developers across multiple markets have re-evaluated their designs in favor of the solution's lower BOS and superior lifecycle economics.
Huawei is committing to supporting the energy transition with solutions that are technically leading, commercially robust, and built for the long term. By enabling solar plants to become intelligent, grid-supporting assets — not passive generation sources — to drive the high-quality development of the industry.
The smarter E AWARD is a great recognition of Huawei's dedication in innovation. Huawei stated at the award ceremony that, it was a great motivation for the team, which was far more than an honor, but a powerful affirmation of Huawei's persistent innovation pursuits, relentless technological exploration, and customer-centric philosophy.
Guided by the brand concept "Making the Most of Every Ray", Huawei is committed to unlocking the full potential of solar energy by bringing more reliable, high-value and innovative solutions.
Huawei will always uphold open collaboration, working hand-in-hand with global partners to offer high-quality product and solutions continuously, and create a greener and better future together.
