Celebrating 15 Years of APsystems: A Legacy of Innovation Towards a Smart Energy Future

On March 24, 2025, APsystems proudly marks its 15th anniversary since its founding in Jiaxing, Zhejiang in 2010. From its inception, APsystems aimed to harness the power of sunlight, and today it stands as a testament to innovation in the energy sector. Transforming from a hardware-centric provider specializing in MLPE microinverters to a comprehensive provider of distributed PV (photovoltaic) energy solutions, energy storage, and charging technologies, APsystems's journey is an inspiring tale of resilience and adaptability.

From Startup to Industry Leader

Founded by Dr. Zhimin Ling and Dr. Yuhao Luo, both avid enthusiasts of the photovoltaic industry, APsystems recognized early on the significant advantages of Module Level Power Electronics (MLPE) technology for safety and efficiency. This vision propelled the company forward, leading to a commitment that has resulted in 15 years of consistent profitability and growth. Since 2012, APsystems has maintained a remarkable trajectory, contributing to industry standards and advancing its position as a leading innovator in the global solar landscape.

As demand for MLPE technology surged, APsystems accelerated its pace of development. By establishing subsidiaries in countries such as the United States, Australia, France, the Netherlands, Mexico, and Brazil, the company expanded its global footprint. In 2022, APsystems successfully debuted on the STAR Market of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, solidifying its financial foundation for continued expansion. By the end of 2024, APsystems had shipped over 6 GW of MLPE products to 156 countries and regions worldwide, marking significant milestones on its path to becoming a global powerhouse in the industry.

Dedication to Technological Innovation

Innovation is the cornerstone of APsystems's strategy. Over the years, the company has introduced groundbreaking products, such as three-phase microinverters and multi-module microinverters that blend performance with cost-effectiveness. Investing heavily in R&D, APsystems has built an international team dedicated to independent innovation in photovoltaic and energy storage technologies. With 178 intellectual property rights, including 89 invention patents, APsystems is at the forefront of technological advancements in the energy sector.

Building a Comprehensive Energy Ecosystem

In the past 15 years, APsystems has broadened its product portfolio beyond MLPE to become a vital player in the photovoltaic industry, energy storage, and charging. The company strategically integrates photovoltaic solutions, energy storage, and charging technologies across three primary business segments: micro photovoltaics, residential energy storage, and commercial energy storage—all centered around microinverters. This integrated approach establishes a highly efficient and interconnected energy ecosystem, optimizing sales channels, resource allocation, and market insights to meet growing demand.

Embracing AI for a Smart Energy Future

As technology rapidly evolves, APsystems is at the forefront of this change, transitioning toward a smarter energy ecosystem powered by AI. The company has established the "+AI Application Research Institute" to fuse artificial intelligence into product development, energy management, and smart office enhancements. With AI-driven algorithms optimizing the charging and discharging strategies for its residential energy storage line, APsystems maximizes customer value. The APdesigner software combines image recognition with complex language models to enhance user interaction and experience.

Looking Ahead: A Vision for the Future

As APsystems celebrates its 15-year milestone, it reflects on past achievements and sets its sights on the future. The company is dedicated to its mission in renewable energy, continuing to deepen its technological innovation and expand its comprehensive energy ecosystem. By harnessing the power of AI, APsystems aims to play a crucial role in contributing to the global energy transition toward a smarter, cleaner, and sustainable future. With the path laid out before it, APsystems is poised to define the next era of energy solutions.
