Fox ESS Unveils Power Beast at Its First C&I New Product Launch Event

WENZHOU, China, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Fox ESS, a global leader in renewable energy solutions, has unveiled Power Beast at its 2026 Fox ESS New Product Launch Event on Sept 21, marking a new step for advanced commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage systems. The first large-scale product launch for Fox ESS in APAC was held in an open-air setting in Wenzhou, with more than 200 customers attending from around the world.

Power Beast is designed as a game-changing C&I energy storage system. It comprises the 125 kW H3 Plus hybrid inverter and the high-voltage CQ series batteries. Notably, the CQ20 stands out as the industry's first modular C&I energy storage system with a fully integrated hybrid inverter, enabling flexible, all-in-one deployment.

Michael Zhu, CEO of Fox ESS, said: "Today, we are not only launching a product, we are demonstrating our capability as an integrated energy storage provider. Power Beast reflects our commitment to global clients by delivering higher efficiency, lighter weight, and smarter energy management."

Lyren Liu, CCO of Fox ESS, shared insights on market growth and his perspective on battery storage during the presentation. To help the audience better understand the product, Liu pulled back a black curtain on stage to reveal a Cybertruck filled with CQ batteries. He then invited the installation team to begin a live build, with a timer displayed on the main screen.

As the demonstration started, the team assembled battery packs for 8 modules of CQ20, 12 modules of CQ7 and 12 modules of CQ6, totalling 316 kWh. The complete system was then connected to the charging piles, diesel generator, and motor. The entire live demonstration was successfully completed in under 30 minutes.

Key strengths about Power Beast:

Flexible to scale

Power Beast is built for modular expansion. With one H3 Plus inverter, the system can cover capacities from 28 kWh to nearly 1,000 kWh. It is also suitable for multiple deployment scenarios, including rooftop, outdoor and indoor applications.

In grid-connected mode, Power Beast supports up to 100 units in parallel, delivering a total capacity of up to 96 MWh. In off-grid mode, it supports up to 30 units in parallel, reaching 28.8 MWh.

Simple to deploy

Ease of installation is a core part of Power Beast's key strengths. Its modular design is intended to improve deployment efficiency and adapt to challenging or irregular environments. The total installation time can be reduced by 90 per cent.

Powerful by design

Power Beast is designed to integrate flexibly with multiple energy sources and loads. The CQ20 series batteries achieve a unit energy weight of 7 kg per kWh, supporting a lighter system footprint while maintaining energy output.

Additionally, safety is addressed through a five-layer end-to-end approach, covering cell-level protection, electrical and structural design, active detection and emergency response.

Smart management

Power Beast connects to FoxCloud 2.0, Fox ESS's proprietary smart energy management platform. It provides real-time monitoring, scheduling across up to 96 time slots, clear visibility of energy flows and performance analysis, enabling one-stop smart energy management.

Fox ESS also introduced its AI agent, Maimai, to provide detailed product, installation and usage information at any time. Using large-model conversational capabilities, it can understand user needs through natural dialogue and generate optimised energy strategies based on historical consumption patterns and real-time dynamic electricity prices.

"We believe a great product speaks louder than marketing. That is why we aim to make our products the best kind of promotion, by delivering real value every single day," Michael Zhu said.

Fox ESS Unveils Power Beast at Its First C&I New Product Launch Event

HEFEI, China, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- In golden autumn, Anhui once again draws global attention from the manufacturing industry as the 2026 World Manufacturing Convention gets underway in Hefei. Held in Anhui for years, the convention is not only a platform for showcasing new products and technologies, but also a window into the province's industrial transformation.

The clearest change in Anhui manufacturing is the shift toward new industries and a more optimized structure. Manufacturing has long been a pillar of Anhui's economy, and its manufacturing quality development index continues to rise. The shares of high-tech manufacturing, strategic emerging industries, equipment manufacturing and electronic information are growing. Equipment manufacturing alone has risen from 33.5% to 42.4%. New energy vehicles, integrated circuits and robotics are growing rapidly, while traditional manufacturing is becoming more high-end, intelligent and green.

Changes in manufacturing methods are also evident. Since 2021, the number of industrial enterprises above the designated size that have completed digital transformation has risen from fewer than 1,000 to 17,000, accounting for 69.5% of all such enterprises. Smart factories, green factories and lighthouse factories are coming into operation. Average tax revenue per mu has risen from 166,000 yuan to 232,000 yuan, while energy consumption per unit of industrial value added has fallen 14.2%. Invention patents per 10,000 people have doubled from the end of 2020. More first-of-its-kind equipment and first-batch products are emerging, making innovation a defining feature of Anhui manufacturing.

 The convention also connects Anhui with global markets. The 2025 World Manufacturing Convention facilitated 735 cooperation projects with total investment of 380.2 billion yuan, including 647 projects in ten key emerging industries worth 329.6 billion yuan. During preparations for this year's convention, 946 cooperation projects involving more than 400 billion yuan in investment had been identified. Activities such as cross-border industrial matchmaking and support for SMEs going global are helping companies find partners and share opportunities in Anhui.

Looking ahead, Anhui will develop new industries and emerging fields, including quantum technology, biomanufacturing and hydrogen energy. It will strengthen the links from research and development and testing to market application, integrate artificial intelligence and the industrial internet more closely with advanced manufacturing, and promote industrial clusters and high-quality enterprises. By attracting investment, technology and talent, the convention is helping expand Anhui's international manufacturing partnerships and create new opportunities for global manufacturing cooperation.
