The iF Design Award is one of the world's most prestigious design awards. In 2023, only 0.7% of entries were won out of over 10,000 submissions. The PowerTitan successfully stood out due to its excellence in meeting criteria: including form, function, idea, impact, and differentiation.

The jurors were impressed by the innovative design. Sungrow's PowerTitan is the world's first "3-in-1 integration" technology supported by power electronics, electrochemistry, and power grid support technologies. It features integrated installation and transportation, modular operation and maintenance, intelligent detection, and liquid cooling temperature control technology. These increase efficiency, safety, and adaptability in the market.

Industrial products such as large outdoor cabinets are rare to be winners of the iF Design Award. Because utility-scale ESS needs to prioritize safety and durability in tackling harsh conditions such as high salt spray, and windy and sandy environments. It is challenging to innovate in terms of product appearance and user experience and adopt new processes and materials. The PowerTitan winning the iF Design Award demonstrates that utility-scale ESS product design has reached new heights. To date, Sungrow has already signed nine gigawatt hours of orders with the PowerTitan globally.

Sungrow has a well-recognized industrial design hub and embeds solving its users' problems as its design purpose. Energy storage is one of the major fields in which Sungrow is working. The Company is well-positioned for further growth in ESS structure, shape, thermal management, and user experience, ensuring comprehensive competitiveness, including excellent look and user-friendliness, as well as optimal safety and high efficiency.

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technology™, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
