TOKYO, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- SINEXCEL (300693.SZ) and Namcha Barwa Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based clean-energy developer, signed a strategic cooperation agreement covering the Japanese energy storage market. They will combine local project development with utility-scale PCS delivery, engineering, and localized after-sales operations.
Full-Chain Cooperation from Equipment Supply to Joint Execution
The partnership transcends traditional channel arrangements. Namcha Barwa contributes project development and grid-connection capabilities across domestic clean-energy and large-scale BESS sites; SINEXCEL provides utility-scale PCS, engineering, and after-sales support. Both sides will build the local execution layer — on-site engineering, spare parts staging, and technical training — keeping decision-making close to each project site.
StellaON 1250K/1575K and 1375kW PCS Adapted to Japan's Grid
The Japanese energy storage market is globally recognized for formidable entry barriers, demanding rigorous third-party certifications, and exacting utility compliance.
Successfully navigating these steep technical hurdles, StellaON 1250K/1575K and 1375kW utility-scale PCS solutions fully satisfy Japan's stringent grid-entry requirements, securing comprehensive compliance for regional utility interconnections. These platforms are explicitly built for Japan's islanded grid topology, disaster-resilience requirements, and power-quality standards:
- Grid-forming capability including HVRT/LVRT and black-start, supporting peak shaving and reactive compensation at large-scale renewable sites.
- Proven Reliability: Following rigorous full-chain reliability validation, the product's MTBF breaks through 300,000 hours, outperforming the industry standard by 3x.
- High-Power-Density Integration: Standardized MV station solutions ranging from 20ft 2.5MW–5MW to 40ft 10MW/12.5MW configurations.
50+ Project Deliveries and Dedicated Local Services
- Over five years in Japan, with more than 50 energy storage projects delivered, progressing from 30 kW and 500kW PCS to megawatt-level utility-scale projects.
- Since January 2026, eight 2 MW/8MWh utility-scale BESS systems have been commissioned across six prefectures, interconnection filings have been completed with seven regional utilities, and integration testing has closed with seven Japanese EMS vendors.
- SINEXCEL's Japan subsidiary has completed its legal registration in Tokyo, backed by a Japan-based parts warehouse and local sales, pre-sales, and after-sales team.
Globally, SINEXCEL has 17GW of installed storage capacity, more than 5,000 projects, and over 600 partners across 60+ markets. The Namcha Barwa cooperation extends this footprint into one of Asia's most demanding storage markets.

SINEXCEL Partners with Tokyo Developer Namcha Barwa to Jointly Execute Japanese Utility-Scale BESS Projects
HONG KONG, June 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Walk into almost any SME in Kwun Tong or Sham Shui Po and ask the owner what keeps them up at night. Rent, yes. Talent, always. But increasingly: the cost of keeping IT infrastructure competitive.
Enterprise servers — the backbone of many serious business operations — can require significant capital investment when purchased new. For Hong Kong's 355,425 SMEs, accounting for over 98% of all businesses in the city according to the Hong Kong Trade and Industry Department, that is not just a line item. It is a business decision.
WINMAX (HONGKONG) ELECTRIC CO., LIMITED believes there is a better way.
Today, the company launched LCRServix, its enterprise IT platform, and announced that WINMAX is an authorized Lenovo Value Recovery (LVR) partner in Hong Kong. Through LCRServix, WINMAX is authorized to sell Lenovo certified refurbished enterprise servers, backed by Lenovo warranty coverage and genuine Lenovo parts, at prices up to 40% lower than comparable new Lenovo configurations, depending on model, availability, and configuration. The platform serves SMEs, system integrators, and enterprise operations teams in Hong Kong, and may support selected Southeast Asian / Asia-Pacific markets subject to availability and local requirements.
This is not grey-market hardware. Lenovo Value Recovery products are certified and refurbished through Lenovo processes and supported by Lenovo testing standards, warranty coverage, and genuine Lenovo components. Through a local partner they can call, visit, and trust, Hong Kong businesses can now access more cost-effective enterprise server options with added assurance.
"Many businesses still assume refurbished hardware means risk," said Wesley, CEO of WINMAX (HONGKONG) ELECTRIC CO., LIMITED. "The Lenovo LVR program helps change that perception. These servers are refurbished and tested through Lenovo processes and supported by Lenovo warranty coverage. The main difference is cost — and for businesses watching margins in the current economy, that difference matters."
Why Now
Hong Kong's data center and enterprise IT market is under pressure from multiple directions: rising operational costs, increasing ESG and e-waste management expectations, and a post-pandemic push to modernize legacy infrastructure on tight budgets. As businesses face growing pressure to modernize infrastructure for AI workloads, hybrid operations, and cybersecurity requirements, many SMEs are struggling to balance performance needs with budget constraints.
Certified refurbished hardware sits at the intersection of these priorities: helping reduce capital expenditure, extending the useful life of enterprise equipment, reducing e-waste, and delivering the enterprise-grade reliability supported by Lenovo testing standards and warranty coverage that businesses need to stay competitive.
LCRServix believes Hong Kong's business community is ready to reconsider the assumption that infrastructure upgrades must always require new hardware. Lenovo Value Recovery authorization provides an important trust signal for that shift.
