SANY Launches Innovative 50-Ton Telescopic Crane for Energy Storage Systems

In the wake of the global energy transition and the quest for carbon neutrality, the energy storage industry is witnessing unprecedented growth. Driven by swift advancements in technology and increasing demand for energy-efficient lifting solutions, SANY has unveiled its latest innovation: a 50-ton telescopic crane specifically engineered for energy storage systems. This new model aims to address the challenges faced by large-scale projects in the sector and sets a new standard in lifting technology.

A Response to Industry Demands

The introduction of the 50-ton crane follows the successful rollout of a 65-ton variant earlier this year, which is already proving to be effective on-site. With the continuous rise of energy storage projects worldwide, SANY recognizes the need for robust and efficient lifting equipment that can handle the increasing demands of this evolving industry. This new crane, designed for high-capacity operations, demonstrates SANY's commitment to technological advancement and innovation.

Powerful Lifting Capacity

At the heart of this new telescopic crane is its remarkable lifting capacity. The crane is fully capable of handling ISO-standard energy storage containers, whether they are 20 feet or 40 feet. With the ability to stack containers up to six high, it significantly enhances storage density in confined spaces. This efficient design is crucial for energy storage projects, where space optimization is a key requirement. The crane's stability during operations further ensures safe and reliable installation of energy storage cabinets.

Energy Efficiency at Its Core

SANY's 50-ton crane comes equipped with advanced electric control pump technology that accurately regulates power output through sophisticated algorithms. This feature not only minimizes energy loss but also enhances the crane’s overall efficiency. Additionally, its hydraulic system boasts a 50% reduction in pressure loss, significantly lowering energy consumption during operations. A standout feature of this crane is its energy recovery system, which optimally harnesses energy during descent operations. This allows the crane to recover approximately 65% of the energy used during ascent, demonstrating a remarkable balance of power and efficiency.

Reliability and Longevity

In response to the rigorous demands of large-scale energy storage projects, SANY has engineered the crane to offer exceptional endurance. It consumes only 1.8 kWh per container movement, which allows for more than seven hours of continuous operation on a single battery charge. The machine’s interchangeable battery system, featuring a substantial 512 kWh capacity, allows for rapid charging and efficient battery swapping, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity on-site.

Commitment to Sustainability

The launch of the 50-ton telescopic crane underscores SANY's ongoing commitment to supporting the global transition to green energy. This innovative equipment will be delivered to clients starting in August 2025, aligning with SANY's strategy to contribute to cleaner, more sustainable energy solutions. As SANY continues to invest heavily in research and development, the company plans to strengthen its role as a leader in fostering low-carbon energy transitions around the globe.

Conclusion

With the introduction of its groundbreaking 50-ton telescopic crane, SANY is not just responding to industry challenges; it is paving the way for the future of energy storage solutions. As large-scale projects become increasingly prevalent, the efficiency, power, and sustainability provided by this advanced lifting equipment will play a critical role in shaping the energy landscape for years to come.
