HEFEI, China, April 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sungrow, a globally leading PV inverter and energy storage system provider, successfully hosted the third Global Renewable Energy Summit (GRES) 2026 from April 22 to 25. Centered on the theme "Value-Driven, Scenario-Proven", the event brought together over 500 guests, including global experts and partners, further reinforcing Sungrow's growing global influence and leadership in renewable energy innovation.
Driving Innovation: Addressing the Global Energy Challenge
Throughout the summit, Sungrow unveiled a series of landmark developments, including diversified, scenario-driven solutions for a sustainable energy ecosystem—spanning PV-BESS integration, mining microgrids, EV charging, and PV-BESS-hydrogen applications—alongside multiple technological breakthroughs, new whitepapers, and real-world testing and case studies.
"We believe a premium energy solution requires multi-energy integration for low-cost power, systematic grid-forming technologies for power stability, and customized designs to adapt to different scenario needs," said Jack Gu, Vice Chairman of Sungrow. "We deliver low-cost green power through deep PV and storage integration. 'From every ray, to every watt, for every return' — this is how we maximize value across the entire energy chain."
PowerMatrix: Redefining Power System for the Renewable Era
During the summit, Sungrow introduced PowerMatrix, a new system paradigm for renewable energy systems. Built on five core innovations—multi-port topology, native PV-storage integration, distributed control, reconfigurable energy paths, and source-level grid-forming—it integrates PV, storage, grid, and loads into a unified, multi-node energy network, where energy can be dynamically routed, balanced, and optimized in real time. As a result, this system-level redesign reshapes system stability, cost, and efficiency across the entire power chain. Sungrow also unveiled the Matrix Inverter, the core product enabling the PowerMatrix system.
A key highlight was the introduction of PowerTitan 3.0, Sungrow's next-generation utility-scale energy storage system. Engineered for high profitability, enhanced safety, and robust grid-forming capabilities, the system integrates 600+ Ah stacked battery cells with a fully liquid-cooled SiC PCS, achieving a round-trip efficiency (RTE) of up to 92%. Featuring an AC block design that supports factory pre-installation and pre-commissioning, the system also enables self-configuration and self-check within one hour—enabling a 1 GWh project to be deployed in just 12 days.
Customized Designs for Full-Scenario Applications
Sungrow delivers scenario-driven solutions across key industries by aligning system design with specific operational needs.
During the summit, Sungrow released the AI Data Center Full-chain Power Supply Solution White Paper, outlining key trends, challenges, and the evolution of power supply technologies for AI data centers. The paper presents a grid-to-chip solution based on the "Green–Gray–White" three-space architecture, designed to support MW-level racks and GW-scale clusters while enhancing safety, stability, and low-carbon performance. In addition, Sungrow will also launch a new generation of high-efficiency Solid-State Transformer this year.
Sungrow jointly released a white paper on mining microgrid power solutions with TÜV Rheinland and China Electrotechnical Society. The whitepaper presents a proprietary full-stack mining microgrid solution designed for a wide range of applications—from medium-scale systems (2.5MW–20MW) and large-scale projects (20MW–100MW) to multi-microgrid clusters above 100MW—supported. Built on a fully self-developed, tightly integrated system architecture spanning PV, wind, storage, charging, and integrated energy management systems, the solution enables coordinated assets control and optimized system performance in complex and remote environments.
Sungrow Hydrogen has showcased its cutting-edge green hydrogen technologies, focusing on wind-solar off-grid hydrogen production and modular turnkey solutions. Its upgraded PV-storage-hydrogen off-grid test platform has passed long-term tests, overcoming multiple core technical challenges. The company's off-grid hydrogen production solution has already successfully been deployed in Europe, contributing to the advancement of the hydrogen economy.
Proven Performance Through Extreme Test
To address grid complexity and instability, Sungrow has developed comprehensive grid-forming (GFM) capabilities across solar, wind, and energy storage systems. At GRES 2026, Sungrow announced the successful completion of the world's first large-scale full-condition grid-forming extreme test. The testing covered 14 scenarios over 138 hours and was independently witnessed and verified by TÜV Rheinland. The testing aligns with grid codes and requirements across major global markets, addressing growing challenges related to grid stability and high renewable penetration worldwide.
In the C&I segment, Sungrow unveiled its full-scenario ecosystem, with the PowerKeeper, PowerStack, and PowerTitan series forming a comprehensive portfolio, and introduced that the PowerKeeper series successfully passed seven extreme challenge tests—making it the industry's first modular C&I ESS validated under such comprehensive conditions. These tests span the entire lifecycle and a wide range of real-world scenarios, covering environmental resilience, structural integrity, and intrinsic safety. The PowerKeeper series "0 Waste, 0 Outage, 7 Ups" is designed to address pain points across the entire energy storage lifecycle—from design and installation to commissioning and maintenance.
Global Momentum and Continued Growth
Witnessed by a global audience, Sungrow signed strategic project agreements with premier partners，securing over 11 GWh in new orders. These landmark projects not only strengthen Sungrow's fast-growing global footprint, but also highlight its deepening strategic alignment with industry-leading partners.
Building on its strong global footprint and proven track record in innovation, Sungrow—recognized as a Tier 1 PV inverter supplier—achieved 143 GW of inverter shipments and 43 GWh of energy storage deliveries in 2025. Moving forward, the company remains committed to delivering value-driven, scenario-proven solutions that empower industries worldwide and accelerate the transition toward a sustainable energy future.

Der chinesische Smartphone-Hersteller Vivo vollzieht seinen offiziellen Markteintritt in der Schweiz und startet gleichzeitig einen eigenen Webshop für Schweizer Kundinnen und Kunden. Bislang waren Vivo-Geräte hierzulande nur über Dritthändler erhältlich. Mit dem direkten Vertrieb will der Konzern seine Präsenz im hiesigen Markt ausbauen und sich in einem von Apple und anderen etablierten Marken dominierten Premium-Segment positionieren.
Zum Start lanciert Vivo sein aktuelles Flaggschiff X300 Ultra, das in der Schweiz für 1.824 Franken angeboten wird. Global zählt der Konzern zu den fünf größten Smartphone-Produzenten und hat im ersten Quartal 2026 nach eigenen Angaben weltweit mehr als 21 Millionen Geräte verkauft. In Europa ist Vivo seit 2020 aktiv, ließ sich mit dem Schritt in die Schweiz jedoch bis jetzt Zeit.
Im Zentrum der Vermarktung des X300 Ultra steht die Kamera-Ausstattung. Das Gerät verfügt laut Hersteller über ein Zeiss-Triple-Prime-System mit Brennweiten von 85, 35 und 14 Millimetern sowie einer weiterentwickelten Farbtechnologie, die Smartphone-Fotografie auf ein neues Niveau heben soll. Die Hauptkamera bietet eine Auflösung von 200 Megapixeln. Zielgruppe sind Foto- und Videograf:innen, denen Vivo ein „aussergewöhnliches Nutzungserlebnis“ verspricht. „Mit dem X300 Ultra bringen wir erstmals ein Gerät unserer Ultra-Serie – und damit auch unser bislang innovativstes Kamera-Flaggschiff – in die Schweiz und markieren zugleich unseren offiziellen Markteintritt“, sagt Martin Wallner, Vice President von Vivo Österreich und der Schweiz.
Technisch setzt Vivo beim X300 Ultra auf ein 6,82 Zoll großes LTPO-AMOLED-Display mit einer Auflösung von 1.440 x 3.168 Pixeln. Das Dual-SIM-fähige Gerät unterstützt 4G, 5G, WLAN, NFC und Bluetooth 5.4 und ist mit einem 6.600-mAh-Akku ausgestattet. Das Smartphone bringt 232 Gramm auf die Waage, ist 8,49 Millimeter dick und kommt in den Farbvarianten „Volcano Black“ und „Steppe Green“. Eine Armor-Glass-Aussenhülle sowie IP68- und IP69-Zertifizierungen gegen Staub und Wasser sollen für besondere Robustheit sorgen. In Deutschland hat Vivo den Marktstart des Modells für den 24. April 2026 mit einem Preis von 1.999 Euro angegeben.
