Sungrow Hosts a Pioneering Session on CI Energy Storage Future
On April 15, 2025, Sungrow organized a significant session within its PhD Talk series at the Capital International Convention Center. This event was dedicated to exploring future possibilities in commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage, gathering notable experts to discuss the integral role of energy storage in the transition to sustainable energy solutions.
Expert Insights on Energy Storage and Decarbonization
The panel showcased a range of distinguished speakers:
- - Dr. Nannan Kou, a specialist in decarbonization at BNEF, shared insights into evolving policies and market dynamics affecting energy storage.
- - Dr. Wei Cao, the General Manager of Sungrow's C&I Energy Storage Product Line, provided an overview of groundbreaking product innovations.
- - Dr. Jing Song, a Research Associate at the Sustainable Transition Center at WRI China, talked about advancements in zero-carbon parks and the standards needed for global energy transformation along with policy debates.
- - Dr. Winfred Zhou, General Manager of Sungrow iCarbon, elaborated on decarbonization opportunities within the C&I sector.
Driving Industry Transformation
Dr. Cao emphasized the importance of time-of-use electricity pricing and enhanced ancillary service markets, which could diversify revenue opportunities for user-side storage solutions. He noted that artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the energy storage sector by enhancing energy management, enabling real-time decision-making, and optimizing electricity trading strategies. This technological advance is positioned to unlock enormous market potential.
During the session, Sungrow also introduced its innovative BM²T battery management technology white paper. This cutting-edge technology ensures meticulous energy storage system management using big data-driven AI computations, achieving over 99% accuracy in battery cell management and proactively warning against thermal runaway scenarios.
Dr. Song's discussion about international zero-carbon parks highlighted the synergy of distributed generation and digital management as necessary for success. Dr. Zhou added that local zero-carbon parks are steadily evolving through pilot projects into comprehensive solutions that integrate
