Sieyuan & Swatten Redefine Global Energy Leadership: Tier 1 Certification, All-Energy Breakthrough, and “From Grid to Home” Strategy Accelerate Global Expansion

When a company that builds national grids begins powering homes and businesses, energy freedom becomes inevitable.

Melbourne, Australia — During All-Energy week, Sieyuan and Swatten delivered not just a product exhibition, but a powerful declaration of global energy leadership.

The week began with a milestone announcement: Sieyuan Electric has officially been ranked on the BloombergNEF Tier 1 list for global energy storage manufacturers — the industry’s highest benchmark for system integration capabilities, large-scale deployment, and reliability. This recognition is backed by 32 years of grid-level engineering expertise and extensive electric system projects in 100+ countries, highlighting Sieyuan’s ability to deliver reliable, scalable, and fully integrated energy solutions. This prestigious accolade highlights our unwavering commitment to excellence in product quality, cutting-edge technology, global projects experience and comprehensive O&M support.

With the Tier 1 certification as momentum, Sieyuan and Swatten made a high-impact appearance at the All-Energy Australia exhibition, demonstrating a rare capability in the industry — delivering a true end-to-end energy solution “From Grid to Home.” Sieyuan’s BESS family spans a complete spectrum of solutions from small-scale to utility-scale applications. Through Swatten, those same utility-grade strengths are extended to residential and small commercial energy storage — providing compact, efficient, and intelligent systems that meet the growing demand of smart homes and sustainable energy lifestyles. The exhibition showcased how Sieyuan’s power ecosystem covers the entire electrical chain — from generation, transmission, substation, and distribution, all the way to end-user energy consumption. In doing so, Sieyuan and Swatten bring electricity from national grids directly into homes and businesses, enabling safe, reliable, and future-ready clean energy for every user.

Global energy transition kicks into higher gear: solar, wind and hydro are expanding at breakneck speed, lifting renewable-installed capacity to record levels. Booming electricity demand plus smart-grid upgrades are sending global demand for transformers and battery storage into overdrive. On the booth, attendees experienced the complete chain: Grid-level equipment — power transformers up to 750 kV, running in 10,000+ substations worldwide. Utility-scale energy storage — modular, safe, dispatch-ready. Swatten small-scale Energy Storage — based on 7 Core Design Principles & 8 Energy Solutions, enabling self-consumption, VPP/grid interaction, AC retrofit, scalable microgrid, and more. Empowering homes and businesses to achieve energy freedom.

Swatten’s versatile storage portfolio supports 3–50kW hybrid inverters and parallel up to 1.5MW / 3MWh for microgrids, businesses, and advanced homes. The spotlight was the Swatten All-in-One system, the only solution in Australia enabling solar to EV direct charging, described by Smart Energy Council CEO John Grimes as: “This product is neat, compact, installer-friendly—and the only one that lets solar directly charge an EV. It represents the future of household energy.”

During the same week, Sieyuan & Swatten hosted their 16th Anniversary Gala Dinner at The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne, celebrating partners who have supported the brand’s long-term commitment to Australia. Industry leaders recognized that during the past 16 years, Sieyuan strengthened Australia’s grid backbone with precision and reliability, and Swatten is now extending that same engineering DNA from substations into homes, schools, farms, and businesses. The industry’s confidence in Swatten comes not only from its technology, but from what the market values most: world-class after-sales service, available beyond business hours, ensuring installers and users receive expert support whenever needed.

From Tier 1 recognition to household-level energy independence, Sieyuan & Swatten proved a defining transformation: Grid-class technology has officially entered the home-energy era. And with it, energy freedom is no longer a concept — it is happening.
