Sungrow Advances Integrated C&I Microgrid Solution to Southeast Asia

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As Southeast Asia's manufacturing sector expands, businesses face growing pressure from rising electricity costs, power supply disruptions and increasingly complex energy demands. Sungrow, a globally leading PV inverter and energy storage system provider, has launched the Integrated C&I Microgrid Solution for Southeast Asia, bringing together PV inverters, energy storage systems, EV chargers, microgrid controllers and cloud platforms. The solution helps businesses access more economical, reliable, and cleaner power.

End-to-End Cost Optimization, Improving Overall Benefits by 12%

For businesses seeking to reduce energy costs without compromising power reliability, system sizing and energy dispatch are critical. Sungrow's Integrated C&I Microgrid Solution is engineered to make clean energy a more cost-competitive choice for businesses.

• Optimized System Sizing: 8,760-hour simulations and intelligent algorithms evaluate tens of thousands of system configurations to optimize the capacity of PV, storage and diesel generation, helping avoid overinvestment and undersized systems.
• Intelligent Energy Dispatch: PV generation and load forecasts are updated every five minutes. Based on these forecasts and real-time electricity prices, AI dynamically optimizes the dispatch of multiple energy sources, including PV, energy storage and diesel generation, helping businesses meet their energy needs at a lower cost. This boosts overall economic benefits by 12% and shortens project payback periods by 1–2 years.
• Flexible Market Participation: Open interfaces and support for major electricity market protocols enable participation in diverse market mechanisms and unlock additional revenue streams.

Industry-First Five-Layer Protection for Reliable Power

For factories and commercial facilities, power outages can halt equipment, disrupt production and prolong recovery. Reliable power for critical loads is essential to keeping operations running.

Sungrow's Integrated C&I Microgrid Solution features an industry-first five-layer protection framework, with tailored control strategies for different levels of grid disturbance. It can withstand three times overload for 10 seconds and severe voltage disturbances, helping protect critical loads from supply disruptions. With seamless grid-to-off-grid switching with no interruption to loads and whole-site black-start capability in just 3 minutes, the solution helps ensure a reliable power supply and rapid recovery during grid disruptions.

Support Throughout the Project Lifecycle

From system design and deployment to long-term operation, Sungrow simplifies the entire project lifecycle with full-stack in-house technologies and global service support.

• Simplified Design and Deployment: One-stop system design, plug-and-play installation and one-click cloud connection streamline the journey from planning to commissioning.
• Smarter Operations: Coordinated PV, storage, EV charging, microgrid control and cloud management enable flexible energy dispatch, unified cloud-based management and automatic fault alerts.
• Global Service Support: With more than 520 service locations, 24/7 technical support and global spare parts centers, Sungrow helps keep projects running reliably over the long term.

Real-World Applications: Powering Energy Independence

"Sungrow's Integrated C&I Microgrid Solution has been deployed across multiple locations in Southeast Asia, addressing diverse energy challenges for businesses," said Huang Wanfeng, director of the Smart Energy Products Department at Sungrow.

In the Solomon Islands, the Solomon Resort Hotel Microgrid enables reliable off-grid hotel operations while helping reduce annual CO₂ emissions by around 1,000 tonnes and fuel costs by an estimated USD 600,000–700,000. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, Sungrow's microgrid solution helps address power supply challenges in industrial parks, reducing reliance on diesel generation.

With proven experience across diverse applications, Sungrow is committed to helping businesses across Southeast Asia build more reliable, cost-efficient and resilient energy systems.

Sungrow Advances Integrated C&I Microgrid Solution to Southeast Asia

The AI wealth platform for independent advisors in Asia marks the opening with advisors, clients and partners, with a second Hong Kong office in Central to follow in early 2027

HONG KONG, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Growhill Wealth, one of the first AI-native wealth platforms in Asia, today officially unveiled its new Hong Kong office on the 15th floor of One Peking Road, Tsim Sha Tsui.

Driven by rapid growth as a premier global wealth hub and the rise of artificial intelligence in financial services, Hong Kong's wealth sector is well-positioned to lead the region through this technological shift.

"Hong Kong is where Asia's families come to plan their wealth, and opening here—with Central to follow—is a clear statement of our commitment to grow alongside this city. We strive to help pioneer the AI-driven evolution of Asia's wealth management industry," said Alan Lau, Executive Chairman of Growhill Wealth.

Over 100 advisors, clients and partners attended the opening events, held under the theme, "Reach Higher, See Further".

The new office brings Growhill's investment, product, technology, and advisory support teams together under one roof, providing platform advisors with a professional venue to meet clients in Hong Kong. Currently supporting around 200 advisors managing over US$800 million in client assets, the firm is also scheduled to open another Hong Kong office in Central in early 2027.

Growhill provides independent advisors with capabilities traditionally reserved for large institutions, including an open-architecture, rigorously curated multi-asset product shelf, comprehensive regulatory support, and an AI workforce that handles routine work and real time analysis. This allows advisors to dedicate more time to their clients, anchored in Growhill's principle that AI should elevate the standard of advice while licensed professionals remain fully accountable.

"In-person engagement remains irreplaceable in the advisory relationship. Backed by institutional-grade facilities and robust risk management, our platform gives advisors the foundational support for them to deeply attend to their clients' overall financial needs," Lau said. 

As part of its ongoing expansion in Hong Kong, Growhill plans to introduce a dedicated family services ecosystem soon, forging strategic partnerships across education, residency advisory, health, and lifelong learning, empowering advisors to deliver holistic, family-centric wealth solutions.
