According to EnergyTrend, multiple photovoltaic and energy storage companies have recently announced new progress including overseas energy storage order signings and project commissioning. Six enterprises, namely HyperStrong, LONGi, Kehua, Tianneng, CATL and SINOMACH, have collectively secured energy storage projects totaling 2.4 GWh across Europe and Southeast Asia.
HyperStrong Signs 440 MWh Energy Storage Project
On May 27, HyperStrong announced that it had recently signed an agreement with ERS Energy, an ASEAN renewable energy EPCC firm, and Gamuda, a Malaysian energy enterprise. The three parties will jointly advance the MyBeST Pekan 440 MWh energy storage system project in Malaysia.
Located in Pekan, Pahang State, Malaysia, this grid-side standalone energy storage station has a capacity of 100 MW/440 MWh. It is one of the first batch of projects launched under Malaysia’s national Malaysia Battery Energy Storage Programme (MyBeST).
LONGi Appoints Distributor for Philippine Distributed Market
On May 27, LONGi showcased its full lineup of PV and energy storage products at Solar&Storage Live Philippines 2026, and officially launched the LONGi One residential PV-energy storage all-in-one system as well as the Hi-MO series application-oriented modules.
LONGi unveiled the LONGi One residential PV-energy storage all-in-one system and Hi-MO series modules tailored for diverse scenarios in the Philippines for the first time at the exhibition.
During the event, LONGi announced the appointment of DJ SOLAR CORP as its exclusive distributor for the Philippine distributed market, ensuring local customers access to genuine products and reliable after-sales maintenance services.
In addition, combining online social media engagement and on-site booth promotion, LONGi established connections with hundreds of local enterprises and reached a number of strategic cooperation intentions.
Kehua’s 360 MWh Energy Storage Project in India Goes Online
On May 27, Kehua announced that its 180 MW/360 MWh standalone energy storage project in Gujarat, India, has recently been connected to the grid and put into operation.
Currently the largest operational standalone energy storage project in India, the facility is fully equipped with Kehua’s 1.25 MW centralized power conversion systems (PCS). The entire construction process complied strictly with the latest CEA industry standards of India.
Furthermore, official documents released by India’s National Load Dispatch Centre (NLDC) and GRID-INDIA have recognized Kehua as a leading manufacturer in the PV and energy storage sectors.
Tianneng Inks PV-energy Storage Deal in the Philippines
On May 26, Tianneng signed a strategic cooperation agreement with a consortium of leading Philippine enterprises engaged in new energy, infrastructure and finance to deepen collaboration in the PV and energy storage sector. The initial project will reach the hundred-megawatt scale.
The Philippine consortium comprises top local companies including CS First Green, a renowned renewable energy development platform. Tianneng will deliver customized microgrid energy storage solutions optimized for off-grid island scenarios.
Both parties will prioritize the development of distributed energy and microgrid applications. Going forward, they plan to launch gigawatt-scale new energy and energy storage projects to help the Philippines optimize its energy mix and improve distributed power supply capacity.
CATL’s 601 MWh Energy Storage Project Commissioned
On May 26, CATL announced that a large-scale 601 MWh energy storage project jointly developed with Eastern European firm Solarpro Holding has been connected to the grid and put into operation in Bulgaria.
The project is equipped with CATL’s in-house developed Tianheng energy storage system, the industry’s first 6 MWh-level product with zero capacity degradation. Adopting 565 Ah LFP cells, it achieves an area energy density of over 407 kWh/m². For a project of 600 MWh, the solution reduces land occupation by around 20% compared with traditional designs, effectively cutting EPC costs and land usage pressure.
This is the largest operational energy storage power station in Eastern Europe. Building on this partnership, Solarpro Holding and CATL have reached a long-term cooperation intent, planning to further expand the scale of energy storage projects within the next two years.
SINOMACH Signs MOU for 1 GW Energy Storage Project in Europe
According to foreign media reports, on local time May 21, China National Machinery Engineering Corporation (CMEC), a subsidiary of SINOMACH, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Swedish energy storage engineering service provider Byhmgard AB to jointly develop European battery energy storage projects with a total capacity of 1 GW.
CMEC, SINOMACH’s core overseas business platform, will deliver high-performance battery energy storage system solutions, production capacity support and engineering construction services for the cooperation. The two sides have launched negotiations on formal agreements for individual projects based on the MOU. They plan to launch three benchmark projects first to verify the cooperation model before gradually scaling up construction.
