HyperStrong and RCT Power have signed a strategic joint venture agreement to advance smart manufacturing capabilities for battery energy storage systems (BESS) in Malaysia. Announced during the smarter E Europe 2026 event in Munich, this collaboration marks a significant step in expanding global manufacturing operations for both companies.
HyperStrong, established in 2011, has delivered over 60 GWh of energy storage projects across 30 countries, solidifying its position as a leader in the industry. The new manufacturing base in Malaysia will bolster HyperStrong’s international manufacturing and delivery capabilities, integrating it further into the global energy storage supply chain.
Malaysia’s strategic location, robust industrial ecosystem, and open business environment make it an ideal hub for energy storage. The partnership aims to rapidly develop local manufacturing and delivery capabilities, offering competitive integrated energy storage solutions to the Southeast Asian market.
Guanru Chen, Senior Vice President of HyperStrong International, stated, “Establishing manufacturing capacity in Malaysia is a natural extension of HyperStrong’s global strategy.” He emphasised the partnership’s role in expanding HyperStrong’s global market presence and contributing to the worldwide energy transition.
Billy Shi, CEO of RCT Power, highlighted the collaboration as a pivotal move in RCT Power’s international strategy. By leveraging HyperStrong’s system integration experience and RCT Power’s expertise in smart manufacturing, the partnership aims to deliver cost-competitive and innovative energy storage solutions across Southeast Asia and beyond.
This joint venture is poised to support the region’s energy transition, aligning with global efforts towards carbon neutrality and sustainable energy solutions.
