【Dhaka, Bangladesh, 16 May 2025】 Huawei has recently introduced an advanced energy storage
system to make it easier to store and supply electricity generated by solar power plants. Ni Xiaopeng
(Liam), Managing Director of Huawei South Asia Digital Power Business, unveiled this new ESS system to the
Bangladeshmarket at the 'Huawei Digital Power Partner Summit 2025' held at the Huawei Bangladesh Academy in
Dhaka.
In order to meet the growing demand for electricity in Bangladesh, emphasis has been placed on solar power.
In this context, many solar power projects are being implemented in Bangladesh at both government and
private levels. However, in this case, the solar projects lack electricity storage technology. To address
this issue, Huawei has introduced the intelligent LUNA2000-215 energy storage system.

This highly efficient Huawei N+1 generation Liquid/Air Intelligent Cooling Energy Storage System (ESS) is
designed and built for high efficiency and reliability, with the capacity of operating in both on-grid and
off-grid modes. In case of outages, it seamlessly switches to off-grid mode to ensure uninterrupted power
for critical operations. During on-grid operation, the backup power SOC can be set to reserve power for
off-grid emergency power supply.
The system delivers a 91.3% round-trip efficiency, enabled by efficient regulation and advanced hybrid
cooling algorithms. Its Pack-Level Optimization 2.0 improves system efficiency and achieves real-time active
balancing without charge and discharge restrictions. This overcomes the short-board effect and increases the
usable energy by 2% in the lifecycle.

The product was unveiled at the event in the presence of Huawei's industry partners. They discussed
opportunities for exchange of views and strategic cooperation. Over 100 Huawei partner representatives from
various EPC companies joined the event. Notable attendees included Chief guest Prof. Dr. Abdul Hasib
Chowdhury, Pro-Vice-Chancellor of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) and special
guest Md. Shahriar Ahmed Chowdhury, Director of Centre for Energy Research of United International
University (UIU).
Huawei's top executives spoke at the event. Speakers included Wu Ji (Jason), President of Huawei South Asia
and CEO of Huawei Bangladesh, Ni Xiaopeng (Liam), Managing Director of Huawei South Asia Digital Power
Business, and Ren Jianyu(Jamison), Director of Huawei South Asia Digital Power Partner Business.

Ni Xiaopeng said, “Our new energy storage system has been launched to enhance the efficiency and reliability
of solar power plants in Bangladesh. As a result, it will be possible to accept more variable renewable
energy in the grid at a lower cost. Through the ‘Huawei Digital Power Partner Summit 2025,’ we aim to create
a collaborative platform that will accelerate the adoption of renewable energy in Bangladesh.”
Md. Shahriar Ahmed Chowdhury Director, Centre for Energy Research, UIU
Special Guest Md. Shahriar Ahmed Chowdhury Director, Centre for Energy Research, UIU and a renowned
renewable energy expert highlighted the need for a sustainable energy transition in Bangladesh industrial
sector:
“The global energy transition is rapidly evolving, and Bangladesh must strategically position itself to lead
in renewable adoption. While we’ve made commendable strides in solar energy, the time has come to move
beyond generation and address the critical need for storage and grid readiness. With the introduction of
intelligent solutions like Huawei’s LUNA2000-215 for the C&I and 4.4MWh for the utility grid stability as
voltage modulation, frequency modulation, phase angle modulation, inertia support etc. also as energy
storage system for ancillary, peak shaving, time of use we now have the opportunity to enhance grid
stability, optimize energy use, and drive a more resilient renewable market. To ensure a sustainable way
forward, we must foster innovation, strengthen our policy framework, and embrace public-private partnerships
that align with our national goals. The future of energy in Bangladesh lies in intelligent, integrated, and
inclusive systems.”
Kingsun Estate Pte. Ltd. Team
Md. Rashedul Karim, Country Head – Bangladesh and his team of Kingsun Estate Pte. Ltd., a VAP (Value Added
Partner) of Huawei South Asia Digital Power, were present at the event. He said, “Huawei’s new energy
storage system will bring a significant change to Bangladesh’s solar power sector. It will not only enhance
the efficiency and energy utilization capacity of solar power plants but also help EPC companies provide
added value to our clients. With the support of smart and reliable technology, we will be able to implement
projects more efficiently while ensuring reliable, sustainable, and modern energy in the country.”
The Bangladesh government has set a clear roadmap for renewable energy generation. Huawei is one of
Bangladesh's long-term partners in this sector. Since 2021, Huawei has been working on various projects in
the renewable energy sector in the country. These include a 100 MW project in Mymensingh and the largest
hybrid offgrid system of Bangladesh in Monpura Upazila of Bhola, with a capacity of 11 MWp solar and 22 MWh
of Huawei ESS system. In 2023 alone, Huawei successfully implemented more than 72 solar rooftop projects in
various private institutions. In 2024, the company launched 5 new digital power products in Bangladesh. The
new energy storage system is Huawei's second ESS solution to be brought to Bangladesh.
