Jiangyin Concludes Golden Autumn Investment Month with 208 Projects Totaling RMB68 Billion

JIANGYIN, China, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2025 Jiangyin Symposium on Economic and Trade Cooperation was held on December 6, hosted by the Jiangyin Municipal Committee and Government. Marking the culmination of this year's Golden Autumn Investment Month, which featured more than 50 promotional events, the symposium resulted in the signing of 208 projects with a combined investment value of RMB68 billion. Since the start of the 14th Five-Year Plan period, Jiangyin has secured 321 major industrial projects, each valued at more than RMB100 million, representing a total investment of RMB262.7 billion. These projects span key sectors including integrated circuits, next-generation information technology, advanced manufacturing, and clean energy.

Jung Ui-joon, Chief Representative of Wonik IPS, attended with a US$150 million investment project scheduled to begin production in 2026. "Jiangyin offers compelling advantages with its strong infrastructure, skilled workforce, and favorable policies, making it a dependable choice for investment," he noted. 

Giordana Davide, President of Jiangsu TianGong Precision Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., highlighted Jiangyin's supply chain strengths. "Our key raw material supplier, Citic Pacific Special Steel Group Co., Ltd., a leading producer in the specialty steel industry, is based in Jiangyin. This proximity ensures exceptional stability and consistency for our manufacturing operations," Davide said. 

During the symposium, Jiangyin joined with Tsinghua University and other domestic academic and research institutions to form the "Sci-tech Innovations in Jiangyin" University Alliance for Technology Transfer and Commercialization. The alliance aims to develop new models for translating research and technological breakthroughs into commercial applications.. 

With its specialized industrial parks serving as strategic platforms, Jiangyin is cultivating modern industrial clusters in clean energy, biopharmaceuticals, and AI-driven manufacturing. The Jiangyin Carbon Neutrality Technology Industrial Park has begun forming an integrated energy ecosystem spanning wind power, solar, hydrogen, and energy storage, supported by port logistics and a comprehensive bonded zone. Meanwhile, the Jiangyin Microelectronics Industrial Park has launched multiple industry funds focused on emerging industries, with total assets under management exceeding RMB6.5 billion. These funds are designed to provide end-to-end capital support for companies across their full development trajectory, from startup through initial public offering.

Jiangyin Concludes Golden Autumn Investment Month with 208 Projects Totaling RMB68 Billion

ADELAIDE, Australia, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sungrow, the leading global PV inverter and energy storage system provider, marked the official commencement of construction of client ENGIE's Pelican Point BESS at Pelican Point Power Station, together delivery partners Elecnor and Electranet. This landmark utility-scale project is designed to further strengthen South Australia's renewable-rich power grid.

Situated next to the Pelican Point Power Station in Outer Harbour, Adelaide, the 200 MW / 400 MWh BESS is currently in development and is expected to begin operation in the second half of 2027. South Australia already leads the world in renewable energy penetration, but the state's rapid shift to wind and solar has also introduced new operational challenges, including increasing system strength risks, frequency volatility, and the need for fast-response capacity during periods of high renewable output and low synchronous generation. The Pelican Point BESS is designed to effectively address these challenges by providing large-scale storage, grid stability services, and improved system resilience for the wider network. Once completed, the system will have the capacity to store and discharge enough to power more than 29,400 average South Australian Homes.

• First Grid-Forming BESS to Support South Australia's Clean Energy Transition

South Australia continues to lead the nation in renewable energy adoption, but high penetration of solar and wind generation brings challenges for grid stability and reliability. The Pelican Point BESS is designed to manage this variability and maintain grid strength during periods of peak renewable output. The project also demonstrates how existing energy infrastructure can be modernised and repurposed to support the evolving needs of a decarbonised power system which is an important milestone for both ENGIE and Sungrow.

For Sungrow, Pelican Point is the company's first grid-forming BESS project in South Australia. It showcases advanced technical capabilities needed to maintain system strength under high renewable penetration. Located next to the Pelican Point Power Station, the project uses a complementary hybrid operational model where the upgraded gas plant and the new battery system work together to support flexible and reliable energy delivery.

• Technical Highlights: PowerTitan 2.0 and Grid-Forming Innovation

The project will deploy a suite of integrated Sungrow technologies engineered for utility-scale performance and reliability, including:

• • Grid-Forming Capability for Superior Support: An integrated skid with inverters, MV transformers and RMU, delivering advanced bidirectional power conversion with grid-forming capability. The SC6900UD-MV Power Conversion System (PCS) inverters are well-suited for utility-scale applications, supporting robust grid services and high efficiency.
  • Pre-Integrated solution for Long-Term Value: Featuring high energy density, liquid cooling, and advanced battery management, the ST5015UX Battery Containers from the PowerTitan 2.0 Series ensure reliability, safety, and a long cycle life. These pre-assembled, factory-tested containers enable accelerated onsite installation and minimize system integration risk.
  • Agile-Dispatching for Market and Grid Requirements: The PPC EMS3000 Plant Controller provides comprehensive plant control, monitoring, and grid integration services. The EMS is designed for scalable, utility-class storage plants and ensures the system can respond to market signals, grid stability requirements, and site-specific operational needs.

• Strengthening Australia's Energy Future Through Partnership

ENGIE's partnership with Sungrow highlights strong confidence in Sungrow's global BESS expertise and technology leadership. Together, the partners will deliver the project to the highest standards of performance, safety, and operational excellence.

"The Pelican Point BESS marks an important step in Australia's clean energy evolution. By combining Sungrow's advanced grid-forming technology with ENGIE's commitment to a carbon-neutral future, we're delivering a solution built for today's needs and tomorrow's energy system. We're proud to support South Australia as it continues to lead Australia in renewable integration."  Joe Zhou, Country Director of Sungrow Australia stated.

With development underway and commissioning set for the second half of 2027, the Pelican Point BESS is poised to become a key asset in South Australia's energy transition. Long term, it will enable deeper renewable integration, greater grid flexibility, and support future hybrid energy models.
