National-level “little giant” enterprises are the best-performing among specialized and refined SMEs. Concentrated in core fields of the industrial base and key links of industrial chains, they are known for strong innovation capability, mastery of key and core technologies, clear competitive advantages in niche markets, and sound quality and efficiency. They serve as a vital force in driving the modernization of industrial and supply chains and fostering new quality productive forces.
As an innovative enterprise in the new energy sector, Zonergy has consistently pursued an innovation-led growth strategy and steadily increased its R&D investment. Its core businesses include R&D and manufacturing of energy storage products, construction and O&M of PV-storage smart microgrids, and R&D and industrial application of sodium-ion battery technology. The company has built a diversified product and solution system covering residential energy storage, C&I energy storage, portable power stations, sodium-ion cells and integrated products, and PV-storage smart microgrids. On this basis, Zonergy has developed end-to-end capabilities covering technology R&D, product manufacturing, system integration, project construction, and operation and maintenance.
In off-grid microgrids, Zonergy has been working intensively since 2013 and has built up more than a decade of experience in technology R&D, engineering construction, and project O&M. Building on this foundation, Zonergy entered the sodium-ion battery sector in 2021. The company has established a product lineup based on high-rate, high-power, high-energy, and specialized sodium-ion cells designed for extremely cold and high-altitude environments, forming a complete business portfolio of “Sodium-ion Cells + Power Products + Solutions.”
In recent years, the company has deeply integrated its independently developed sodium-ion products with mature PV-storage smart microgrid technology. On the one hand, it is promoting demonstration projects and expanding application scenarios for sodium-ion battery technology in extremely cold, high-altitude, and remote regions; on the other hand, it continuously optimizes the system integration capabilities, environmental adaptability, and power supply reliability of smart microgrids, thereby advancing both sodium-ion technology innovation and microgrid application in tandem.
