To date, Yuneng has accumulated 212 intellectual property rights, including 95 invention patents, highlighting the company’s leadership and continuous innovation in MLPE (Module Level Power Electronics) technology.

Building on its MLPE technology advantages, Yuneng has gradually expanded into the full-scene applications of “photovoltaics + storage.” It has established three core business scenarios: DIY micro-solar storage, residential solar storage, and commercial and industrial solar storage. For micro-solar storage, Yuneng has launched micro-inverters and hybrid micro-inverter products that support dual communication modes of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, providing efficient power solutions for small-scale distributed users. In the residential storage sector, it offers single-phase and three-phase energy storage inverters across various power ranges to meet diverse household energy needs. For commercial applications, Yuneng provides larger power string storage cabinets, helping businesses reduce electricity costs and enhance energy efficiency.

In response to the rise of AI, Yuneng actively integrates AI technology with its core operations. AI has been fully implemented in critical areas such as power plant design, energy management, fault prediction, and operations and maintenance response. The company has introduced systems like the “BESS AI” family energy management system, an electricity trading decision support platform, and the AP Designer intelligent design tool, continuously enhancing the level of system intelligence. Furthermore, Yuneng’s self-developed “APbot” intelligent customer service system covers all business scenarios, offering 24-hour professional consultation and interaction services. The company also promotes AI application capabilities among all employees, establishing a new “Office + AI” model that improves management efficiency through process restructuring and cost optimization. The deep integration of AI technology not only optimizes user experience but also builds core competitiveness for sustainable development.

Strategic Marketing and Global Expansion

With intense competition and price pressures in the domestic solar storage market, expanding internationally has become a common strategy for many companies. Since 2011, Yuneng has proactively pursued a global development strategy, stepping forward to “go global” and continuously enhancing its marketing efficiency and brand competitiveness.

Over the years, Yuneng has deepened its global operational capabilities, establishing nine subsidiaries in key markets such as Australia, the USA, France, the Netherlands, Mexico, Brazil, and Singapore. Its products are now exported to over 160 countries and regions, with cumulative shipments of MLPE products exceeding 7GW. By implementing a strategy of “global operations, local services,” Yuneng has built a localized system that encompasses marketing, technical support, and after-sales service while deepening its insights into regional market demands. This has resulted in a balanced global layout that considers both the breadth and depth of channels, gaining wide market recognition. The company has been awarded the EUPD “Top PV Brand” title in Europe and Latin America for six consecutive years, reflecting the high trust international customers have in Yuneng’s products and services.

Based on this global layout, Yuneng employs differentiated strategies tailored to the characteristics of different markets. In mature photovoltaic markets, the company continues to refine services and deepen its solar storage business. Besides enhancing its offerings of micro-inverters and residential storage products, it is steadily expanding its product matrix. Its Ocean series of commercial and industrial energy storage cabinets have successfully entered markets in Germany and Slovakia, laying a strong foundation for further expansion into Europe. In emerging markets such as Asia, Africa, and Latin America, the company is precisely launching products tailored to regional needs, like the AHS series solar storage inverter designed for areas with weak grid support, ensuring power supply for critical loads during outages. Yuneng also utilizes various channels, including exhibitions and social media, to promote solar storage solutions and strengthen brand influence and channel penetration.

In the domestic market, Yuneng continues to promote industrial synergy and value chain extension, actively advancing downstream applications. The company is focused on implementing distributed photovoltaic power stations and commercial energy storage projects, driving product innovation and market expansion through practical applications. Additionally, Yuneng is keenly aware of the opportunities in the Chinese balcony photovoltaic market, leveraging years of overseas technical accumulation and market experience to launch high-power balcony photovoltaic products that meet local user demands. The company is committed to enhancing local applications and market promotion, aiming to establish balcony photovoltaics as a new strategic growth point and further consolidate its comprehensive competitiveness in distributed energy.

Light Asset Strategy Ensures Agility

During industry cycles, companies that blindly expand capacity and struggle to respond quickly to changes in demand are often the most affected. Yuneng Technology has chosen a more “intelligent” path by adopting a light asset operation model, utilizing outsourcing for production. This approach reduces the company’s investment in fixed assets such as production equipment and facilities, thereby lowering operational costs. The company avoids the financial pressures and operational risks associated with large-scale production, allowing it to allocate funds more effectively towards R&D and market expansion.

Furthermore, Yuneng’s outsourcing partners, TianTong Holdings and GuangHong Technology, are globally recognized EMS suppliers with mature and efficient production capabilities, enabling rapid responses to production demands. This flexibility allows the company to timely adjust production plans according to market demand changes, avoiding inventory buildup and waste. Additionally, Yuneng leverages an international outsourcing network spread across China, Europe, and Vietnam to achieve a global capacity layout, effectively utilizing manufacturing advantages in different regions while mitigating geopolitical and trade risks. This also facilitates swift responses to varying market demands, shortening product delivery cycles and enhancing customer satisfaction.

The light asset model allows Yuneng to focus more on core technology R&D and marketing, effectively achieving a “lightweight approach and adaptability” that maintains strategic flexibility and risk resilience amid fierce industry competition.

Yuneng Technology’s sustained profitability over 13 years is not a mere coincidence stemming from a single advantage, but rather the result of a well-coordinated system of strategy, R&D, layout, operations, and finance. In a fluctuating industry environment, the company consistently demonstrates exceptional strategic determination and clear business logic. True leadership in business does not stem from size but from depth of value; it is not about rapid expansion but about a solid foundation. Respecting market dynamics, focusing on customer value, and adhering to long-termism—these principles underpin Yuneng Technology’s ability to transcend cycles and continuously capture market opportunities.
