CRRC Zhuzhou Institute is set to unveil its new 6.X Liquid-Cooled Energy Storage System at The Smarter E Europe 2026, taking place from June 23–25 at Messe München. Visitors can find the company at Booths B2.540 and B2.640 in Hall B2. The product launch follows the successful completion of the company's 200 MWh Bohot Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project in Bulgaria, which achieved full grid connectivity in April 2026.

By May 2026, CRRC Zhuzhou Institute had expanded its energy storage footprint across more than 25 countries and regions. During the exhibition, the company will showcase advancements in its latest storage technologies alongside its track record of delivering energy projects throughout Europe.

Introducing the 6.X Liquid-Cooled Energy Storage System
The newly launched 6.X solution features several notable innovations.

Improved Space Efficiency
The system increases energy density by 25% while reducing installation footprint by more than 20%, helping developers overcome land availability and permitting challenges common across European markets.

Advanced Thermal Management
A top-discharge cooling architecture combined with adaptive temperature-control technology lowers thermal-management energy consumption by over 10%, contributing to higher operational efficiency.

Versatile Application Support
Designed as a comprehensive energy storage platform, the solution can be deployed across utility-scale generation, grid-support applications, and commercial and industrial (C&I) projects, allowing asset owners to optimize performance and returns in multiple use cases.

Proven Safety Performance
The company has released safety data from extensive fire-resistance testing and a six-level extreme-safety validation program conducted in accordance with UL 9540A:2026 and NFPA 855:2026, internationally recognized benchmarks for battery energy storage safety.

Demonstrated Success: Bohot 200 MWh BESS Project
The Bohot energy storage project achieved full-capacity grid connection on April 3, 2026, successfully meeting Europe's rigorous interconnection standards. The facility incorporates a modular design consisting of DC battery containers, integrated AC cabins, PCS units, and a 33 kV grid-connection system. Since entering operation, the project has delivered stable performance and gained positive recognition from local stakeholders and regulatory authorities, reinforcing the company's presence in the European market.

Commitment Beyond Energy Infrastructure
CRRC Zhuzhou Institute emphasizes local workforce development, skills enhancement programs, and regional sourcing initiatives to support domestic supply chains. Throughout project development and operation, the company implements environmental-impact assessments and ecological-protection measures focused on energy efficiency, emissions reduction, and biodiversity conservation. Compliance with local regulations and international standards has helped establish strong relationships with government bodies and regulatory agencies worldwide.

Also Featured: “Chixiao” 460 kW PV Inverter
In addition to its energy storage solutions, the company will present the “Chixiao” 460 kW photovoltaic inverter. Drawing on engineering standards developed for high-speed rail applications, the inverter delivers 460 kW rated output and up to 506 kW maximum capacity while increasing power density by 28% compared to the previous generation. It also incorporates next-generation silicon-carbide (SiC) technology, helping reduce overall system costs for large-scale ground-mounted solar installations.

Attendees visiting Booths B2.540 and B2.640 in Hall B2 will have the opportunity to explore CRRC Zhuzhou Institute’s latest innovations and discuss emerging opportunities within Europe’s rapidly evolving clean-energy sector.

Infineon Technologies, a global leader in power systems and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, has become part of NVIDIA’s MGX AI Factory ecosystem, contributing advanced power delivery technologies for the next generation of AI data centers. The company’s power management portfolio will support NVIDIA’s MGX™ platform and 800 VDC power architecture—an open and modular framework developed to meet the demands of AI factories in the era of agentic AI. By enabling 800 VDC MGX™-compatible power racks, Infineon helps existing AI infrastructure achieve greater computing capacity and power density while providing a pathway for future upgrades.

Adam White, President of Infineon’s Power & Sensor Systems Division, stated that the collaboration with NVIDIA aims to reshape power distribution from the electrical grid all the way to the processor level, a critical requirement for advancing AI technologies. He noted that as AI models become increasingly sophisticated and resource-intensive, data centers must significantly boost computational performance while operating within existing space, energy, and cooling limitations. Through the combination of NVIDIA’s flexible MGX architecture and Infineon’s power solutions, data centers can achieve more efficient energy distribution across their power networks. He also expressed enthusiasm about continuing joint efforts to bring additional MGX-based innovations to market.

Infineon’s expertise in end-to-end power conversion spans the entire power chain, from grid infrastructure to processor cores, utilizing a range of semiconductor technologies including silicon (Si), silicon carbide (SiC), and gallium nitride (GaN). This broad technological foundation supports the industry's move toward large-scale adoption of 800 VDC architectures. Infineon’s GaN-based solutions, operating at switching frequencies approaching 1 MHz, enable highly compact bus converters with exceptional efficiency. Additionally, the company’s proprietary SiC JFET technology, paired with specialized control integrated circuits, provides effective protection and hot-swap capabilities for native 800 V server boards. These solutions facilitate power conversion from 800 V to intermediate voltages such as 50 V, 12 V, and even 6 V.

Within the NVIDIA MGX AI Factory ecosystem, Infineon supports the full 800 VDC power conversion pathway, delivering intermediate bus and core voltages for systems built on NVIDIA MGX architecture. By minimizing the number of power conversion stages and bringing DC power closer to server racks, the approach enhances overall energy efficiency, streamlines infrastructure requirements, and enables higher-density AI computing environments.
