Felicitysolar has commenced construction of a new photovoltaic and energy storage research and manufacturing facility, marking a key milestone in the company’s long-term strategy to scale advanced battery technologies and integrated energy solutions.

The new R&D and manufacturing base will span approximately 50,000 square metres of land, with a total built-up area of nearly 190,000 square metres. The facility is designed to integrate research, testing, pilot production and system validation, enabling faster product development and improved alignment between laboratory innovation and real-world energy storage applications.

According to the company, the project represents a strategic investment aimed at strengthening its energy storage R&D capabilities, accelerating innovation across battery systems, power electronics and energy management, and supporting growing global demand for reliable storage solutions.

Felicitysolar has positioned research and development as a core priority, investing around 10% of its annual revenue in R&D. By 2026, the company plans to expand its R&D workforce to more than 400 engineers, with a focus on advancing lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄) battery technologies, high- and low-voltage storage systems, and hybrid energy configurations.

Energy storage product development at the new facility will emphasize system safety, installation efficiency and long-term operational reliability. Key battery platforms incorporate fire-protection modules, simplified grounding designs, and automated module addressing to reduce installation time and facilitate system expansion and maintenance.

Felicitysolar’s energy storage portfolio includes 12V, 24V and 48V LiFePO₄ batteries, high-voltage battery systems, and integrated solutions designed for residential, commercial and industrial applications. These systems support self-consumption, backup power and load management across diverse grid conditions.

In 2025, the company’s R&D capabilities were further validated when its IVGM series 50 kW commercial and industrial energy storage system received the EUPD Award, recognising its technical performance and practical deployment value. The system supports features such as time-of-use optimisation, unbalanced three-phase output, scalable capacity up to 5.7 MWh, and real-time monitoring.

Felicitysolar said the new R&D and manufacturing base will support its broader sustainability objectives by enabling the delivery of advanced energy storage systems that contribute to grid stability, renewable energy integration and global decarbonisation efforts.
