Nantong Smart Energy Center: A New Benchmark for Intelligent Manufacturing
Supporting the global rollout of the "AI in All" strategy is the newly launched Sigenergy Nantong Smart Energy Center. Covering 136,000 square meters with an investment of RMB 500 million (≈ USD 70 million), the facility has an annual production capacity exceeding 300,000 inverters and battery packs. More than a factory, it serves as an integrated hub combining advanced R&D, intelligent manufacturing, global delivery, and energy management.
At the heart of Sigenergy's manufacturing network, the Nantong Smart Energy Center features a fully integrated digital platform that enables operators to monitor production in real time and coordinate processes across the facility. Unlike conventional factories relying on isolated automation, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), and Energy Management Systems (EMS) are interconnected, allowing material dispatch, equipment configuration, and production adjustments to be automatically synchronized.
Sigenergy maintains industry-leading precision across key manufacturing processes. Automated welding with Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) visual inspection achieves a 99.9% yield rate, Surface-Mount Technology (SMT) lines process components at 0.043 seconds per unit with 20–30 micron accuracy, and Dual In-line Package (DIP) assembly times are cut by 50% through automation and lean practices. AI-powered quality inspections replace manual sampling, while Sigenergy's three-dimensional intelligent logistics system integrates overhead and ground material movement for optimized efficiency.
This combination of advanced equipment and intelligent systems delivers industry-leading throughput — producing one battery pack every 15 seconds and one inverter every 21 seconds. The launch of the Nantong Smart Energy Center ensures Sigenergy's original designs are realized at scale with uncompromised quality, establishing a benchmark for precision, consistency, and long-term reliability.
Expanding Full-Scenario Solutions with Three New Product Launches
Sigenergy also unveiled several new products designed to further strengthen its full-scenario energy portfolio, spanning residential, commercial & industrial, and utility-scale applications.

NEW YORK, April 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On the occasion of International Pet Day this April 11, the discussion on companionship is embracing an entirely new perspective. As the population living alone continues to expand, the demand for pet companionship has been on a steady rise, with young people, seniors living alone, and children emerging as the groups with the most concentrated need for companionship. However, practical constraints are making it increasingly difficult to keep a pet, forcing many people who crave companionship to give up on adopting a pet. Adoption will always be the best choice for those ready to welcome a furry companion into their home. OlloBot recognizes that not everyone's lifestyle is suited for pet ownership—and that's perfectly fine. Cyber-pets, as a completely new category, is not intended to replace living pets, but rather to offer an alternative companionship option that better accommodates diverse lifestyles.
