SANTIAGO, Chile, Oct. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sungrow, the global leading inverter solution supplier for renewables, announced that the Company hit 1 GW PV inverter cumulative shipment to Chile and took first place in the shipment ranking in Chile this year, contributing to Chilean renewable energy deployment and coal power phase-out national targets.
