Australia Issues Safety Recall for GoodWe & GE Hybrid Inverters

Solar National is alerting Australian households and businesses to an Important Safety Alert: GoodWe & GE Hybrid Inverters Recalled in Australia, following a nationwide recall issued by electrical safety regulators. The recall affects select hybrid inverter models from both GoodWe and GE, which have been found to carry a potential fire hazard caused by internal component failure or overheating.

The impacted inverters were primarily sold and installed across Australia between October 2022 and 2025 and are widely used in residential and commercial solar energy systems.
