Hizenergy (Huazhi Energy) unveiled a matrix of four new energy storage products designed for commercial and industrial (C&I) markets. The lineup includes a 300-kW power conversion system (PCS) with 400-V alternating current output, a 460-kW PCS, a two-hour energy storage system rated at 300 kW/627 kWh, and a four-hour system rated at 300 kW/1,172 kWh. The company presented the launch as a response to the evolution of the C&I market, where operators seek both equipment efficiency and smarter dispatch capabilities.
A Low-Voltage PCS With No External Transformer
The lineup's flagship product is the 300-kW PCS (AC) 400-V unit, which Hizenergy describes as the first low-voltage PCS with direct 300-kW output in its category. Its design enables direct connection to commercial low-voltage 400-V distribution grids without a step-up transformer. According to the company, this architecture would reduce system initial costs, footprint, and conversion losses compared with high-voltage architectures requiring additional transformation equipment.
The converter displays a peak efficiency of 99.0% and a European efficiency of 98.5%, according to Hizenergy. The equipment would also integrate grid-forming capabilities, black-start functionality, and seamless switching between grid-connected and islanded modes. These features position the product for installations requiring high operational resilience.
Two System Configurations for Two- and Four-Hour Discharge Durations
Hizenergy's complete energy storage systems are built around the 300-kW converter. The two-hour system offers a capacity of 627 kWh, while the four-hour system reaches 1,172 kWh. These configurations target C&I operators seeking to optimize their consumption management over extended time horizons.
The lineup also includes a 460-kW PCS, whose detailed specifications the company did not disclose. Hizenergy positions the entire lineup in a C&I market context increasingly oriented toward market mechanisms, where operators require equipment enabling both total-cost-of-ownership optimization and advanced dispatch algorithms. The company did not disclose pricing or target geographic markets for these new offerings.
