What HDT does
HDT Energy operates as a B2B solar energy distributor and solutions provider, functioning as a division of Hong Kong-incorporated HDT Group Limited. The company holds exclusive rights to distribute Huawei's solar products in Brazil and serves as the principal regional partner across the Americas, with operational offices in São Paulo (HQ), Santiago (Chile), Ningbo (China), and Central Hong Kong, plus presence in Panama. Its core offering is built around Huawei-manufactured hardware: SUN2000 and SUN5000 string inverters spanning 2 kW residential to 330 kW utility-scale configurations; LUNA2000 lithium battery energy storage systems (BESS) ranging from 5 kWh residential units to 4.5 MWh utility installations; and RSM-series photovoltaic modules in monofacial and bifacial variants from 390W to 700W. The company complements this with proprietary HDT-branded UPS product lines (HDT POWER, HDT HOME+, HDT HOME) and a professional services layer covering installation support, Huawei certification training, Curve IV diagnostics, monitoring through the Fusion Solar platform, and extended warranty packages.
The company earns revenue primarily through hardware resale—solar inverters, batteries, modules, and UPS systems—across three customer segments: Residential (served via strategic distribution partners), Commerce & Industry (C&I, served direct or via specialized integrators), and Utility/Projects including PMGD distributed-generation plants in Chile. Pricing is quote-based and project-specific rather than publicly disclosed. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales for utility and C&I projects with a layered channel structure: 17+ named strategic distribution partners across Brazil (Fortlev Solar, Solfacil, Amaranzero, BOLD Energy, Dynamis, Alumiflex, PHB Solar, Belmicro, Sou Energy, Loja Elétrica, BelEnergy, Connectoway, Mazer Solar, Bel Micro, MTR Solar, Evolua Energia) and five dedicated BESS specialists (JNG Energia Solar, Secpower, Powersafe, Corsolar, MTR Solar). The company reached more than 1.4 GW of installed capacity in Brazil by 2022 and was the first in Latin America to earn Huawei's CSP (Certified Service Partner) certification that same year. It is led by three co-founders: CEO Leonardo Onuki Cyrino, CSO Bruno Marletta Monteiro, and COO Gustavo Alberto Griner.

HDT competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- Enphase Energy: Enphase is the leading MLPE/microinverter and battery supplier, with growing LATAM distribution primarily in residential and small commercial. Comparable as a premium-tier inverter and storage brand pursuing the same high-end residential integrators in Brazil and other LATAM markets.
- Solis (Ginlong Technologies): Solis is a Chinese string inverter brand rapidly expanding in LATAM, especially Brazil, via distributor networks. Comparable as another Huawei-alternative inverter supplier targeting residential and small commercial integrators in the same Brazilian solar channel.
- JA Solar: JA Solar is a Chinese top-tier PV module manufacturer with its own LATAM distribution and project pipeline. Comparable because it competes on the photovoltaic module SKU that HDT currently distributes for Huawei (RSM series) in Brazil and Chile.
Direct peers
- Growatt: Growatt is a Chinese solar inverter and storage manufacturer with rapidly expanding LATAM distribution through Brazil and Chile. Comparable as a directly competing Huawei-alternative supplier targeting the same price-sensitive residential and small C&I inverter customer base in the region.
- Fronius: Fronius (Austria) supplies string inverters (Symo, Primo, Tauro, Verto) plus solar storage and monitoring, with a multinational LATAM sales and service network. Comparable as a premium-tier inverter brand pursuing the same C&I and residential integrators that HDT serves in Brazil and Chile.
- GoodWe: GoodWe manufactures solar string inverters and energy storage batteries (Lynx, ET/EH series) and runs its own LATAM distributor network targeting residential, C&I and utility segments. Comparable as an alternative-brand solar inverter and battery supplier pursuing the same downstream integrators and project developers in Brazil and Chile.
- Sungrow: Sungrow is Huawei's largest direct competitor in solar string inverters and BESS, with its own growing LATAM distribution footprint (Brazil, Chile, Mexico). Comparable because it competes for the same integrator and EPC customers on the same solar inverter/storage SKUs in the same regions where HDT sells Huawei products.
Broad incumbents
- SMA Solar Technology: SMA is a global inverter incumbent with utility, commercial and residential product lines and an established Brazilian subsidiary serving the same integrator base as HDT. Comparable as a broader-portfolio incumbent competing for the larger-scale projects and utility-grade deployments that HDT pursues via SUN2000-330KTL.
- WEG S.A. WEG is a Brazilian electrical equipment manufacturer and major solar inverter/battery/UPS player with deep domestic distribution across the country. Comparable as a broad-line Brazilian incumbent supplying inverters, generators and related power-quality equipment to the same C&I and utility customers HDT targets.
- Canadian Solar: Canadian Solar is a vertically integrated module manufacturer plus EPC and battery storage solutions provider with significant LATAM utility-scale project operations. Comparable as a module-plus-storage distributor/EPC operating in the same Brazilian and Chilean utility and distributed-generation markets where HDT sells Huawei modules and inverters.
