During a conference call on April 27, Sungrow clarified that it has no plans to enter upstream battery cell manufacturing, opting instead to maintain an asset-light operational strategy. The company emphasized its "cell-neutral" principle, focusing on collaborative innovation with partners in winding and stacking technologies to define cell specifications. Citing the high risks of asset-heavy operations, Sungrow intends to deepen ties with cell manufacturers through strategic cooperation, supply chain integration, R&D synergy, and potential cross-shareholding.
