During the session, Cape EMS’ vice-president (smart energy solutions) Piotr Stec introduced the Group’s global BESS partner, Shanghai Sermatec Energy Technology Co Ltd, a BloombergNEF Tier 1 battery manufacturer.
Stec addressed Sermatec’s product range and discussed how BESS technology can improve grid stability, reduce maximum demand for industrial users and ensure efficient utilisation of renewable power.
The second technical presentation was delivered by Hayden Qi who is the sales manager of GNETEK, a leading manufacturer of solar optimisers and Rapid Shutdown Devices (RSD). Qi shared how optimisers and RSD technology – first pioneered by GNETEK in 2018 – enhance solar panel efficiency, reduce fire risk and increase overall system safety.
In the final segment, Cape Renewables conducted a sharing session on AC EV chargers for residential and commercial use which addressed Malaysia’s rapidly growing EV adoption and the need for accessible charging infrastructure.
