Multi-Regional Growth and Global Market Footprint
Sigenergy’s global leadership is propelled by balanced growth across key international territories rather than a single region. Backed by strong traction in Europe, resilient momentum in Oceania, and rebounding markets in Africa, the company secured top market positions across multiple countries.

To date, Sigenergy supports its worldwide customer base through a robust global network comprising over 170 distributors and 25,000+ registered installers spanning more than 120 countries.

Amid an accelerating global energy transition, Sigenergy capitalized on surging demand for distributed energy by executing its visionary “AI in All” strategy. During the first half of 2026, this strategy propelled the introduction of four major product breakthroughs: the next-generation SigenStor Neo all-in-one ESS, SigenFlux heat pumps, Sigen EVAC 2 smart EV chargers, and SigenMate micro energy storage systems.

Together, these innovations form a unified powerhouse capable of seamlessly generating, storing, optimizing, and protecting household energy.

AI Empowers Energy: Advancing the “AI in All” Global Strategy
In the first half, Sigenergy launched SigenAgent, the industry’s first full-domain AI agent designed to redefine AI-powered energy management. Its AI agent squad—Energy Manager, System Doctor, Power Trader and Business Assistant—supports key applications across home energy, power station O&M, power trading and enterprise energy management, making complex energy tasks simpler and more efficient.

Furthermore, the company globally rolled out mySigen App 4.0 powered with SigenAgent, enhancing intelligent energy management capabilities through AI algorithms and energy data analytics.

Continuous investment in R&D and technological accumulation further strengthens Sigenergy’s competitive foundation and supports sustainable long-term growth.

Smart Manufacturing Strengthens Global Delivery Capability
Following its Main Board listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in April 2026, Sigenergy significantly strengthened its supply chain infrastructure:

The Nantong Smart Energy Hub, officially commissioned in March 2026, represents a major milestone in Sigenergy’s global intelligent manufacturing strategy. The facility supports annual production capacity exceeding 300,000 units of inverters and energy storage PACKs, integrating R&D, manufacturing and digital management capabilities.

In June 2026, construction kicked off for Phase II of the Nantong Smart Energy Hub as well as a joint-venture project for energy storage system structural components. Upon completion, these projects will further boost the company’s manufacturing strength, industrial chain synergy and global delivery capability.

Driven by its visionary “AI in All” blueprint and flexible modular product architecture, Sigenergy is leveraging its market-leading momentum to scale its global footprint across the entire energy spectrum—seamlessly expanding its advanced, AI-driven portfolio from household solutions to commercial and industrial (C&I) enterprises and utility-scale infrastructure.

A decade after China and Egypt launched the second phase of their joint economic and trade cooperation zone in the desert along the Suez Canal, the area has grown into an industrial cluster of nearly 200 companies, creating about 10,000 jobs and becoming a tangible example of how bilateral cooperation can translate into local development.

The China-Egypt TEDA Suez Economic and Trade Cooperation Zone has attracted companies in building materials, petroleum equipment, electrical equipment and machinery, with cumulative investment exceeding $4.7 billion, according to the reports by People’s Daily. What was once undeveloped desert has become an industrial platform linking China’s Belt and Road Initiative with Egypt’s development strategy for the Suez Canal Corridor.

The transformation reflects a broader shift in China-Egypt ties, from individual infrastructure projects toward cooperation that connects investment, employment and markets. During talks with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi on Wednesday, Chinese President Xi Jinping said the two countries should deepen cooperation and continue advancing the building of a China-Egypt community with a shared future.

New engine of local development

The Suez zone has increasingly moved beyond conventional manufacturing, with solar projects and an emerging circular economy pointing toward greener and lower-carbon development. The expansion into new sectors has also brought more direct benefits to Egypt’s economy and workforce.

Chinese-invested projects have helped strengthen Egypt’s power supply, with a solar park substation project providing about 16,000 gigawatt-hours of electricity since completion, while Chinese companies have trained local engineers and workers, with some Egyptian employees moving into technical and management positions. At a joint venture between China XD Electric and Egyptian-owned EGEMAC, local employees account for 97% of the workforce.

Such cooperation is part of a broader model of mutually beneficial development. In a signed article published in Egyptian media ahead of Xi’s visit, he said China and Egypt should “pursue mutual benefit and win-win cooperation and set a benchmark for joint development.”

Egyptian products find a growing market in China

The relationship is increasingly running in both directions, with Egyptian products gaining greater access to China’s large consumer market.

China’s trade with Egypt reached 95.19 billion yuan ($14.16 billion) in the first seven months of 2026, up 18.7% year on year, Chinese official data shows. Chinese exports to Egypt rose 17.5%, while imports from Egypt jumped 49.4%.

Agricultural trade has been a particular growth area. China’s imports of Egyptian agricultural products rose 82.6% in the first seven months, accounting for 41.7% of China’s total imports from Egypt. Egypt was China’s largest source of frozen strawberries and third-largest source of flax, with the two products accounting for 96.7% and 7.7% of China’s respective imports.

Egypt, one of the world’s leading orange exporters, shipped fresh oranges worth about $26 million to China in 2025. An agricultural exporter who travels to China several times a year said strong demand for Egyptian oranges among Chinese consumers has encouraged producers to improve quality.

In an article, Egypt’s Al-Ahram newspaper said China’s zero-tariff measures for African products had opened access to a market of more than 1.4 billion people, while noting that lower tariffs alone would not guarantee success. Product quality, stable supply and localized marketing would remain important for Egyptian companies seeking to expand in China, the newspaper said.

Beyond bilateral ties

The significance of the relationship goes beyond trade and investment as China and Egypt mark 70 years of diplomatic ties. Egypt was the first Arab and African country to establish diplomatic relations with the People’s Republic of China, and the two countries have since expanded cooperation into culture, education, science and technology, health and other fields.

Xi has said China and Egypt set an example of friendship, solidarity and coordination between developing countries, noting that both are important members of the Global South.

Egypt’s position gives that partnership a wider regional dimension. As a major Arab and African country, it serves as a link between the Arab world and Africa, while China and Egypt coordinate in multilateral frameworks including the United Nations and BRICS.

At a time of persistent instability in the Middle East, Xi has also called for greater regional autonomy in security, comprehensive approaches to hotspot issues, development to underpin security and stronger international coordination.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Visure Solutions today announced its EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance solution, enabling manufacturers of products with digital elements to meet every CRA obligation, from Annex I essential cybersecurity requirements and Article 14 vulnerability reporting through 10-year Annex VII documentation retention. The launch coincides with Article 14 reporting obligations activating on 11 September 2026, requiring manufacturers to report actively exploited vulnerabilities to the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) and national Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs) within 24 hours.

“CRA compliance is not a one-time documentation exercise. It is a structured engineering process that runs from Day 1 of product design through the end of the support period,” said Fernando Valera, CTO at Visure Solutions. “Manufacturers who treat it as a documentation task will find themselves unable to respond to Article 14 incidents in time, unable to reproduce a historical baseline for a market surveillance audit, and unable to demonstrate a governed process to notified bodies.”

Transforming Fragmented Compliance into Governed Engineering

CRA obligations, from tracing each Annex I clause to a verified design decision and maintaining a machine-readable SBOM, to retaining evidence for 10 years and responding to vulnerabilities in 24 hours, are engineering process obligations, not documentation tasks. Without live traceability across the product lifecycle, compliance becomes a costly retrospective effort market surveillance authorities are unlikely to accept.

Visure ALM Integrated CRA Compliance Workflow: Displays end-to-end traceability across engineering disciplines and domain-specific toolchains for CRA obligations.

Visure’s platform maps directly to each CRA obligation, replacing fragmented tools with a single governed engineering environment. Through Visure, manufacturers can:

• Trace Every Requirement to Evidence: Annex I clauses imported as structured items, linked to risks, design decisions, and verified tests via a live Traceability Matrix. Suspect links fire automatically on any upstream change.
• Respond to Vulnerabilities with SBOM-Driven Traceability: When a Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) entry is reported, blast-radius analysis surfaces every affected requirement, baseline, and product version instantly. Article 14 SLA deadlines of 24 hours, 72 hours, and 14 days are tracked live.
• Generate Technical Audit Packs on Demand: The Annex VII evidence pack built continuously from engineering work and exported from a signed baseline in minutes via Word or ReqIF.
• Sign Baselines, Freeze and Reproduce Any Release: Requirements pass through governed review workflows before entering electronically signed, immutable baselines, fully restorable years later for any market surveillance request.
• Define Security Requirements with AI: Vivia (Visure Virtual Assistance), Visure’s on-premise AI engine, generates CRA-aligned requirement drafts from Annex I clauses in hours. Human sign-off is required before any baseline entry. Zero data leaves the customer environment.

“As manufacturers move toward operational CRA compliance, Visure provides the engineering foundation required to meet every obligation as a governed, repeatable process, not a documentation exercise,” Moustapha Tadlaoui, CEO at Visure Solutions, added. “Live traceability. Signed baselines. On-premise AI. All in one platform.”

Governed Traceability Architecture: Illustrates live requirement-to-evidence mapping, suspect-link flags, and real-time CVE impact analysis across releases.

Webinar September 24th: Ensuring CRA Compliance Across the Product Lifecycle

Join Fernando Valera, CTO of Visure Solutions, for Ensuring Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) Compliance Across the Product Lifecycle: Embedding Cybersecurity, Traceability, and Compliance from Design to Deployment. The webinar will cover Article 14 response workflows, Annex VII evidence pack generation, and AI requirements generation with Vivia.

Currently pursuing her studies at Ningxia University in China, 22-year-old Mai Ngoc Linh faces a regular routine of classes and personal commitments this September 2. Unable to immerse herself in the festive holiday crowds back in Vietnam, Linh embraces a quieter way to remember her roots.

“Living and studying overseas, I feel a pang of regret missing out on the joy and excitement of this major national holiday,” Linh said. “This year, I plan to write in my journal, reflecting on what Independence Day means to me and expressing my gratitude to our national heroes, especially our beloved Uncle Ho.”

What Linh misses most while abroad is the sight of the national flag—the yellow star against a field of red—draping streetscapes back home. Linh recalled that last year, during Vietnam’s 80th National Day milestone, she watched live broadcasts of the national military parade from afar.

“My heart swelled with pride watching those moments unfold,” she said.

In South Korea, 25-year-old Nguyen Yen Quyen, a student at Myongji University, finds alternative ways alongside other Vietnamese peers to craft an authentic holiday atmosphere. Together, they stream commemorative festivities and follow updates from Vietnam.

“When you are so far away, small comforts—speaking our mother tongue, reminiscing about home, or sharing photos of Vietnam on September 2—make us feel instantly closer,” Quyen shared. “We often gather at Vietnamese-owned coffee shops or restaurants to talk, share a meal, and bridge the distance. Everyone has their own way of celebrating, but the common thread is a shared pride in our identity.”

Keeping the Name “Vietnam” Close at Heart

For Nguyen Quoc Khanh, a 24-year-old student at Inje University in South Korea, this marks his second Independence Day spent away from home. While September 2 remains an ordinary school day, Khanh carves out time to follow domestic news, call his family, and reflect on his heritage.

“What stays with me most is the sea of red flags fluttering along every road,” Khanh noted. “When living in Vietnam, it was such a familiar sight that I took it for granted. But living abroad, seeing those images across my phone screen makes me feel the sacred weight and pride of our homeland much more deeply.”

Khanh added that he often meets up with fellow Vietnamese friends after class to share home-cooked Vietnamese meals, discuss their lives as expatriates, and trade stories about home.

“No matter how far I travel, whenever someone asks ‘Where are you from?’, I feel immense pride answering, ‘I am from Vietnam,’” Khanh said. “Living abroad taught me that your homeland is not merely where you were born; it is a permanent piece of your identity.”

Further east, in Japan’s Aichi Prefecture, 26-year-old worker Nguyen Dinh Nhat maintains his usual work shift, as the holiday lands on a regular weekday. Over his five years in Japan, almost every September 2 has unfolded as a standard workday.

“Even so, I always look toward home during major holidays by following social media updates and reading the news to stay connected with the celebrations back home,” Nhat remarked.

Living overseas, Nhat realized that patriotism often surfaces in the simplest acts: speaking Vietnamese, bonding with fellow countrymen abroad, learning more about national history, and proudly declaring his Vietnamese heritage wherever he goes.
