Soaring Electric Landon Yi: Providing Key Support for the Safe, Stable, and Economically Efficient Development of the New Power System
On April 11, 2025, at the 13th Energy Storage International Summit and Exhibition (ESIE 2025) held at the Capital International Exhibition Center, Landon Yi, General Manager of the Testing & Control Business Division of Soaring Electric (Beijing Soaring Electric Technology Co., Ltd.), was invited for an interview by Xinhua News Agency’s Intelligent Zero-Carbon column.
I. Business Layout and Product Solutions
Soaring Electric focuses on two core business segments: energy storage converters (PCS) and battery charge-discharge testing equipment.
The company entered the energy storage PCS field in 2009, participating in early State Grid demonstration projects and accumulating extensive industry experience. In battery testing, Soaring Electric developed China’s first commercially applied energy-saving regenerative load in 2003. By 2010, it was providing high-power testing equipment to leading companies like CATL, supporting the R&D of power and lithium-ion batteries.
Landon Yi stated that these two business lines are deeply integrated. During the R&D phase of energy storage batteries, Soaring Electric tests critical parameters like safety and cycle life. At the production stage, it focuses on final inspection and capacity evaluation . For the application phase, the company offers its self-developed energy storage converters for generation-side, grid-side, and user-side scenarios, enabling closer collaboration with energy storage and battery enterprises.
II. Future Technology Roadmap and Innovation Directions
At the exhibition, Soaring Electric showcased key products including a 6MW centralized liquid-cooled energy storage converter, a 2.5MW centralized energy storage converter, a 215K string energy storage converter, a 2500V energy storage battery condition testing system, and a large-capacity multi-branch energy storage battery container testing system.
Responding to national policy requirements (Document No. 136 for the energy storage industry), Soaring Electric focuses on the commercial application and full lifecycle value of energy storage products.
Its late-2024 launch of a large-capacity multi-branch energy storage battery testing system allows for precise evaluation of differences and circulation between clusters within energy storage systems, optimizing battery pairing schemes and enhancing the system’s full lifecycle value by over 5%.
Furthermore, Soaring Electric is committed to developing and applying Grid-Forming technology. Its ES series liquid-cooled energy storage converters integrate industry-leading response speeds and grid-forming capabilities, successfully validated in projects like Wushi, Xinjiang. As one of China’s earliest companies to obtain grid-forming certification, this technology enhances the active support capability of new energy storage systems for the power grid and strengthens Soaring Electric’s industry leadership.
