Driven by the global energy transition and the push toward carbon neutrality, SANY is accelerating innovation in the energy-storage sector with the launch of cutting-edge reach stackers tailored for large-capacity projects.
In March, SANY’s 65-ton energy-storage reach stacker successfully rolled off the assembly line and has since been operating reliably at the customer’s site for nearly six months. Continuing its commitment to industry-leading solutions, SANY launched the world’s first 50-ton energy-storage reach stacker on August 1st. This new model delivers robust performance, exceptional energy efficiency, and long-lasting endurance, addressing the critical lifting challenges in the fast-growing energy-storage industry.
With these technological advancements, SANY is setting new standards for lifting equipment and reinforcing its role in powering the global shift to sustainable energy.
Powerful lifting capability
The 50-ton reach stacker is specialized for energy storage containers and can perfectly lift ISO 20-foot / 40-foot energy storage containers.
It offers stacking capacity for up to 6 containers, greatly enhancing storage density within limited space. With a maximum hoisting capacity of 50 tons, it ensures the efficient transfer and installation of energy storage cabinets, maintaining exceptional stability during movement.
Outstanding energy efficiency
The machine is equipped with an advanced electric control pump, precisely controlling the current output through programs and algorithms, which reduces energy losses fundamentally. The high-pressure hydraulic system reduces pressure loss by 50%, further lowering energy consumption.
Energy recovery is a key feature. The potential energy of the boom, lifting gear and energy storage cabinets during the boom’s descent can be recovered efficiently with an overall recovery efficiency of over 65%. That means every 1 kWh of consumption in lifting can be recovered by 0.4 kWh during descent.
Reliable, long-lasting endurance
Large-scale energy‑storage projects with tight schedules impose strict demands on equipment endurance. The 50 t reach stacker consumes as little as 1.8 kWh per container move. With a 512 kWh swappable battery system that supports both fast charging and battery swapping, it delivers over 7 hours of continuous operation, significantly reducing downtime from charging.
The first units will be delivered to customers and enter operation in August 2025. The launch of the 50 t and 65 t energy‑storage reach stackers marks SANY’s targeted response to industry needs and underscores its commitment to global green‑energy development. Looking ahead, SANY will continue to strengthen its R&D to advance an efficient, low-carbon, and sustainable energy transition worldwide.
