Why Edisonic partners with global BESS leader Zhiguang Electric

Written by ellocentlabs@edisonic.ellocentlabs.com | December 10, 2025

As Australia’s energy landscape rapidly evolves toward renewable integration, the demand for reliable, utility-scale battery energy storage systems has never been greater. At Edisonic Energy, we’re committed to bringing world-class energy storage solutions to the Australian market through strategic partnerships with industry leaders. Today, we’re excited to share why we’ve chosen to partner with Zhiguang Electric Co., Ltd., a pioneering force in global energy storage technology.

A partnership built on proven excellence

Our decision to partner with Zhiguang wasn’t made lightly. As a Top10 Chinese utility scale BESS OEM supplier with over 25 years of experience, Zhiguang has consistently demonstrated the technical expertise and manufacturing excellence that Australia’s energy sector demands. Their comprehensive approach to energy storage—covering everything from Battery PACK and BMS to PCS and EMS integration—aligns perfectly with our commitment to delivering complete, reliable solutions.

Global expansion signals market leadership

Zhiguang’s recent international expansion further validates our partnership choice. The company has been aggressively pursuing global markets, recently showcasing their innovations at Intersolar & Energy Storage North America 2025 (ESNA 2025) to accelerate international growth. This global presence demonstrates their ability to adapt their technology for diverse regulatory environments and market conditions—a crucial factor for Australian deployments.

Most significantly, Zhiguang has established a strong foothold in the European market, including recent expansion into Italy with major solar-storage-charging projects. This European success story is particularly relevant for Australian clients, as it demonstrates Zhiguang’s capability to navigate complex regulatory frameworks and deliver large-scale implementations in mature energy markets.

Technical innovation that matters

What sets Zhiguang apart in the crowded BESS market is their commitment to full-stack in-house R&D across all critical components. Unlike many competitors who rely on third-party integrations, Zhiguang maintains complete control over:

  • Battery PACKs – Optimized for safety and longevity
  • PCS (Power Conversion System) – High-efficiency power conversion
  • BMS (Battery Management System) – Advanced monitoring and protection
  • EMS (Energy Management System) – Intelligent grid integration

This vertical integration ensures optimal system efficiency, safety, and reliability—factors that are non-negotiable for C&I and utility-scale storage deployments in Australia’s challenging climate conditions.

European-grade certification for Australian markets

One of the most compelling aspects of our Zhiguang partnership is their commitment to international compliance standards. Their liquid-cooled all-in-one integrated BESS has earned the CEI-016 certificate —required for grid interconnection in Europe—demonstrating their ability to meet the world’s most stringent safety and performance requirements.

This certification excellence translates directly to Australian projects, where grid stability and safety are paramount. When you choose Edisonic Energy’s Zhiguang-powered solutions, you’re getting European-grade engineering adapted for Australian conditions.

Real-world success stories

Zhiguang’s recent Italian expansion provides a compelling case study in their capabilities. Their tailored approach for the Italian market leveraged the group’s strengths across energy storage integration, ultra-fast charging infrastructure, large-scale PV systems, and smart distribution to create comprehensive solutions that won high praise from European clients.

As Dr. Lin Zebo, Senior Vice President and Head of Zhiguang’s International Division, noted: “We remain committed to a customer-first, innovation-driven philosophy to deliver high-quality projects and deepen our footprint in global markets.”

What this means for Australian clients

Our partnership with Zhiguang brings several key advantages to Australian energy projects:

Advanced technology access: Cutting-edge liquid-cooled BESS technology proven in international deployments

Regulatory confidence: Systems certified to international standards with demonstrated compliance capabilities

Scalable solutions: From utility-scale grid storage to commercial and industrial applications

Proven reliability: Technology deployed across diverse global markets with established performance records

Innovation pipeline: Access to ongoing R&D developments from a company investing heavily in next-generation storage technology

Supporting Australia’s energy transition

As Australia accelerates its renewable energy transition, partnerships like ours with Zhiguang become increasingly critical. The country’s ambitious renewable energy targets require not just more storage capacity, but smarter, more efficient, and more reliable storage solutions.

Zhiguang’s comprehensive approach—combining proven technology, international certification, and continuous innovation—positions them as an ideal partner for Australia’s energy future. Their global expansion success demonstrates their ability to support energy transitions worldwide, making them a natural choice for Australia’s unique energy landscape.

Looking forward

The energy storage market is evolving rapidly, and success requires partners who can adapt and innovate at scale. Zhiguang’s recent international expansion, including their European success and North American market entry, demonstrates their commitment to becoming a truly global energy storage specialist.

At Edisonic Energy, we’re proud to bring this world-class technology to Australian markets. Our partnership with Zhiguang represents more than just product supply—it’s a commitment to supporting Australia’s energy transition with proven, innovative, and reliable energy storage solutions.

As we look toward 2025 and beyond, this partnership positions us to deliver the high-performance BESS solutions that Australia’s renewable energy future demands. Whether you’re planning utility-scale grid storage, commercial energy management, or industrial backup power, our Zhiguang partnership ensures you have access to technology that’s proven on the global stage and ready for Australian conditions.
