TOKYO, Nov. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Sungrow, the global leading inverter and energy storage system solution

supplier, announced its seminar dedicated to empowering the clean energy

transition of Japan kicked off in Tokyo on November 24. The seminar focused on

diversified solar and energy storage applications through expert lectures and

interactive discussions, garnering hundreds of delegates comprising of

government officials, EPCs, developers, investors, and other industry players.

Expecting a strong stride forward in Japan's solar market

Japan is one of the most vibrant solar hubs with the goal of achieving carbon

neutrality by 2050. The country increased its renewable energy generation

target from the previous 22%-24% to 36%-38%. As a pivotal industry pioneer,

Sungrow contributes to the carbon-neutral goal with industry-leading products

and services tailored to the Japanese market.

Optimized to address the Japanese growing demands on distributed PV plants,

Sungrow offers a broad product portfolio including the 1500V string inverter

SG125HX-JP (https://ja.sungrowpower.com/productDetail/727). The product rated

at 125 kW streamlines the configuration and maximizes the LCOE significantly.

Equipped with 12 MPPTs, SG125HX-JP can ensure a premium yield even in the hilly

terrains in Japan. The high protection capacity of IP66 and C5 makes the

inverter robust despite working on rooftops where it's vulnerable to harsh

conditions in the long run.

Innovation in energy storage market development

The energy storage system is an ideal solution to tackle the issue of the

current rising electricity price and power failure in Japan. At the seminar,

Sungrow introduced comprehensive solar-plus-storage solutions covering

residential, commercial, and utility-scale applications, among which the

residential Hybrid and Battery Solution as well as the liquid cooled energy

storage system (ESS) PowerTitan captivate much attention.

This residential Hybrid and Battery Solution comprises the single-phase hybrid

inverter SH5.5RS-JP (https://en.sungrowpower.com/newsDetail/2581) and the high

voltage SBR battery, featuring higher yields, simplicity, enhanced safety, and

intelligent O&M. The SH5.5RS-JP features a greater power at 5.5 kW and a

maximum 200% DC/AC ratio. It can be applied in multi-roof scenarios and

supports any 200V household appliances. As a result, residential users will

access more efficient and flexible clean energy. The solution ensures a

reliable energy supply with Battery-Backup mode when a power failure occurs due

to natural disasters like typhoons and earthquakes. In addition, families can

manage their household's energy usage from their smartphones with Sungrow

iSolarCloud anytime and anywhere.

Tailored to utility-scale energy storage installations, the liquid cooled ESS

PowerTitan (https://en.sungrowpower.com/newsDetail/2764) achieves higher

efficiency and performance levels through liquid cooled technology. The

temperature drift between individual cells is kept below three degrees Celsius,

extending the life span by 10%. The new cluster controller can charge and

discharge separate battery racks individually, which improves the overall

system performance by 6%. The automatic state of charge (SoC) calibration and

the automated coolant refilling considerably reduce operating and maintenance

costs. So far, Sungrow already inked gigawatt hours of orders with PowerTitan

globally.

Inspiring a greener future with Sungrow

Eight years ago, Sungrow made its first entry into the Japanese market. With

its local branch established in Tokyo, the Company is well equipped with a

professional local team offering responsive sales, technical support, and

after-sale services. Sungrow continues to make big moves with inverters and ESS

installed in landmark projects, in particular a 21 MWh utility-scale

solar-plus-storage project in Hokkaido, Japan, enabling clean energy supply 24

hours a day.

"As one of the countries with the most stringent grid codes, Japan presents us

with lots of opportunities and challenges. We value the continued trust of our

partners and strongly believe that we'll continue offering cutting-edge solar

and energy storage products and services tailored to the local market to make

renewable energy more accessible, stable, and sustainable, and facilitate the

Japanese carbon neutral goal," commented Michael Zhang, Country Manager of

Sungrow Japan.

Zhang also mentioned Sungrow was recently awarded a 100% bankability ranking by

BloombergNEF (https://en.sungrowpower.com/NewsDetail/3139), becoming the only

company ranked as "100% bankable" and maintaining the No.1 ranking for four

consecutive years.
