At the 18th SNEC PV Power & Energy Storage Expo, which took place at Shanghai’s National Exhibition and Convention Center, APsystems left a lasting impact. The firm, which has over 15 years of disruptive technical innovation, showcased new products, the influence of AI integration on energy management, and its newest developments in solar and storage technologies.
Taking the Lead in Innovation: The Release of New Products
The QS2 is a brand-new single-phase quad microinverter from APsystems that supports four high-power PV modules via separate MPPT channels and has an amazing 2200W output. Its module-level architecture, which was designed for efficiency and safety, efficiently reduces the dangers associated with high voltage by maintaining DC voltage below 60V when in operation. While the QS2’s compatibility with existing APsystems single-phase models, such as the DS3 and QS1, increases system design flexibility, the improved Zigbee module improves communication speed and stability.
The AHS series Solar Battery Hybrid Controller, intended for off-grid and backup power situations, was also unveiled. The flagship AHS-6.3 provides a 6300VA pure sine wave output with 99.9% MPPT efficiency and smooth 5ms UPS switching, supporting 12V, 24V, and 48V lead-acid and lithium batteries. It is designed for dependability in both residential and telecom applications, with IP43 cooling and real-time app monitoring.
Adaptable Solar + Storage Options for Any Situation
The whole range of distributed energy solutions that APsystems offers for micro, residential, and commercial applications was featured. The EZ1/EZHI series gives do-it-yourselfers energy independence and microgrid possibilities. ELS/ELT storage solutions and 20A microinverters offer versatile alternatives for residential situations. The Ocean series storage systems and QT2 three-phase microinverters are made for scalable performance and low cost in the C&I market.
Smarter Energy with AI Integration
A major focus this year was APsystems’ AI-driven enhancements. The new BESS AI model uses deep learning to forecast energy generation and consumption based on historical data and local energy prices. This enables automatic, personalized charge/discharge schedules for balcony and residential storage systems—delivering smarter, more efficient energy use.
APsystems also unveiled APbot, a smart support assistant built on advanced AI architecture using private LLM deployment and RAG technology. Designed to improve customer interaction, APbot delivers fast, accurate responses using semantic search and knowledge-based reasoning, all while being easily adaptable for global compliance needs.
The AP Designer tool also received an AI boost. Now featuring image recognition, real-time simulation, and 3D modeling, it streamlines PV design by analyzing rooftops, trees, and shading. With online design capabilities and automatic report generation, it simplifies everything from planning to budget forecasting.
