SHANGHAI, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- APsystems showcases its latest solar-storage innovations at SNEC 2026 in Shanghai. Guided by the philosophy "Grounded in Safety, Powering Solar-Storage Integration," the company has launched seven new product lines covering micro-site, residential, and C&I scenarios, spanning four energy storage solution categories: AC coupling, hybrid AC-DC coupling, off-grid, and string-type energy storage. Among them, the new hybrid and off-grid products stand out for their robust performance and reliable power output.
A flagship for new solar-storage installations: Solar Hybrid Storage Inverter
As one of the key exhibits at SNEC 2026, the LSH-6 hybrid storage inverter has emerged as a standout new offering. Driven by the company's hybrid AC-DC coupling technology, this all-in-one unit integrates PV generation, energy storage, on/off-grid operation and smart energy management. Boasting 6000VA rated output and 97.6% peak efficiency, it easily supports various household loads, while the proprietary low-load intelligent control cuts standby power consumption. Its fan-less natural cooling keeps operating noise as low as 30dB for quiet home use. Compatible with 48V low-voltage batteries for improved safety, it features 125A fast charge and discharge and 2x DC oversizing (up to 12kW PV input) to maximize energy output. A ≤4ms UPS-grade switchover ensures uninterrupted power supply during grid outages. 20% more compact than comparable products, it allows wiring without enclosure removal and supports flexible parallel expansion for hassle-free installation. The built-in BESS AI model optimizes charge-discharge strategies to lift self-consumption, and its VPP-ready function also helps users gain extra revenue by responding to real-time grid demand.
Complete off-grid solutions for unstable/unavailable power supply
For areas with no grid access, such as rural households and remote communication base stations, APsystems has expanded its off-grid product portfolio across multiple power classes to deliver reliable power anywhere.
The AHS Series Solar Battery Hybrid Controller, ranging from 6.3kW to 12 kW, is built on an advanced SiC technology platform and well suited for household off-grid power supply and remote base stations. It intelligently manages solar modules, batteries and available grid power to deliver flexible bidirectional power conversion. Notably, the series supports battery-free operation to help users cut costs when batteries are unavailable or costly. It can also work with 12V/24V/48V lead-acid and lithium batteries, eliminating the single-voltage limitation of traditional inverters and further optimizing overall cost and reliability. Users can remotely monitor device status, power generation and load consumption via a mobile app for convenient real-time system management.
This all-in-one AHS-6.3H stackable unit integrates inverter and battery. It delivers 6300VA output and houses a 5.12kWh LiFePO₄ battery with over 6,000 cycles. The 48V low-voltage design ensures safety, and multiple working modes cater to different needs. Its stackable modular structure enables simple setup and scalable capacity, controlled via an intuitive touchscreen. With C4 corrosion resistance, it works reliably in tough coastal and industrial conditions.
Compact and rugged: EZOG D Series Micro Off-Grid Storage
Ideal for remote cabins, home offices and outdoor worksites, the portable EZOG D Series integrates inverter and storage. It provides 1200VA rated output with 2.0kWh, 2.6kWh or 4.0kWh battery options. Featuring dual MPPT channels and GaN technology, it supports 430W–900W+ PV modules and 40A fast charging at 95.5% efficiency. Smart charge-discharge management helps extend battery life and reduce costs. Fan-less operation, IP66 rating and a wide -40°C to 55°C working range ensure reliable all-weather use.
Covering unstable grid conditions and fully off-grid scenarios, APsystems delivers a complete ecosystem of hybrid and off-grid energy solutions. Centered on safety, efficiency and practical usability, APsystems continuously advances the global adoption of decentralized, resilient and clean energy systems.

The First Time a Game in the Legendary Franchise Comes to Consoles
BELLEVUE, Wash., June 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Critically-acclaimed game development studio ArenaNet® tonight announced Guild Wars 3™, the third entry in the legendary and beloved Guild Wars® MMORPG franchise and their first new game since 2012. The game will release globally on PC, Steam, and PlayStation 5, marking the first time a Guild Wars game will appear on home consoles. The first beta test is scheduled for fall of 2027.
The official debut trailer features the first in-engine gameplay footage and can be viewed HERE. The first concept art and other assets are hosted at the Guild Wars 3 official press kit.
"Guild Wars 3 is a new era not just for ArenaNet and Guild Wars, but also for MMORPGs as a whole," said Colin Johanson, Guild Wars 3 Game Director and ArenaNet Studio Head. "The MMORPG genre has millions of players worldwide eager for new, modern experiences, and the opportunity to harness that excitement is immense. Our approach with Guild Wars 3 is to push MMORPGs forward, to create an online game world that feels believable, rewarding, responsive, and innovative while at the same time respecting players' time and providing a positive, supportive space to build community and enjoy new stories in our universe."
Taking place over a thousand years before the events of the original game, Guild Wars 3 is set in the Tyrian region of Orr, a vast wilderness frontier imbued with the world's magic. Nature entities with strong connections to the land called Vael spirits embody the vitality of this lush, verdant landscape. Various guilds are engaged in conflict over how to protect or exploit the bounty beyond civilization's borders. These multitudinous spirits will vary in size and influence within the ecosystems around them, with the most notable of these being the Seeker. As seen in the trailer, every player's Seeker will serve as a connection to the spirits of Orr and a mount that will carry them on their journeys through the game's open world.
Players will assume the role of a Vaelwarden, a member of a guild of adventurers committed to preserving and protecting both the spirits of the wild and the land of Orr itself. Through the deep character customization and skill-building gameplay the Guild Wars franchise is known for, players will seek adventure and confront danger across this sumptuous, vibrant online world, growing their relationships with the spirits of the wild, the inhabitants of Orr, and other Vaelwarden players.
A combat system designed from the outset to feel great on both a controller and keyboard rewards positioning by emphasizing the joy of movement and momentum. As players seamlessly transition between various movement modes, they can harness their speed and turn it into bigger damage and impact when fighting their foes.
More information about pricing, beta tests, release date, and gameplay features will be revealed later in 2026 and into 2027. Guild Wars 3 will be available directly from the developers at GuildWars3.com, and can be wishlisted on Steam and the PlayStation Store beginning today, with more information available at the game's official website.
