Brand Day reveals a different side of REPT BATTERO_我的网站

一 |     The Brand Day showcased continued breakthroughs in technology and products, while also highlighting personal growth and long-term commitment.
REPT BATTERO held its 2026 Brand Day, themed "HEART OF A CHAMPION·MOMENT OF A DREAM" in Shanghai on August 8. Unlike a conventional corporate launch centered on new products and specifications, the event comprised two parts: "HEART OF A CHAMPION" featuring new solutions for AI data centers, heavy-duty transport and emerging mobility; and "MOMENT OF A DREAM" a concert featuring young pianist Hao Liu and his story of pursuing music through sustained commitment.

Bringing product innovation and piano music onto the same stage reflected a broader question for REPT BATTERO as it enters a new phase of development: how to build not only technologies and business performance that stand up to market scrutiny, but also the organization, culture and talent needed to support long-term growth.
A new starting point: the focus turns to enduring growth
In 2025, REPT BATTERO achieved its first full-year profit since its founding, while its residential energy storage cell shipments ranked No.1 globally (Source: SNE Research; GGII; SMM and ICC). For the first half of 2026, the company expects a revenue of approximately €1.86 billion ($2.15 billion) to €1.95 billion and a net profit of approximately €89.8 million to €109.1 million - surpassing its full-year net profit in 2025. According to SNE Research, REPT BATTERO also globally retained No.1 in residential energy storage cell shipments, while its power battery shipments entered the global top 10 in June.
    REPT BATTERO President Benson Feng delivers his address at the company’s 2026 Brand Day.
Speaking at the event, REPT BATTERO President Benson Feng said the new energy industry is moving beyond a period driven primarily by capacity expansion. In an increasingly competitive market, the company will continue to prioritize long-term technology development and disciplined operations, with a sustained focus on product safety, consistent quality, reliable delivery and lifecycle services. He emphasized that building an enduring company matters more than achieving short-term speed - and that people ultimately determine whether a business can navigate industry cycles over the long run.
"Healthier, happier and wealthier" is more than a slogan

As its business enters a new phase, REPT BATTERO is pursuing a culture in which REPTers can be "healthier, happier and wealthier." The aspiration extends from physical well-being and sustainable ways of working to professional growth, recognition and the opportunity to share in the company's progress.
"Without sustainable growth for our people, there can be no sustainable growth for the company," Feng said. When REPTers have the well-being, development opportunities and recognition that reflect their contribution, an organization is better positioned to sustain creativity, cohesion, innovation and operational improvement.
Putting people at the heart of products and customer value

REPT BATTERO's people-centered approach also extends to customers and end users. During "HEART OF A CHAMPION," the company introduced solutions for AI data centers, commercial vehicles and emerging mobility applications, with a shared focus on balancing energy, efficiency, safety, weight and size around real operating needs.
For AI data centers, REPT BATTERO unveiled the Powtrix® 6.9MWh energy storage system and the Wending® 320Ah sodium-ion cell. Powered by Wending® 648Ah cells, the Powtrix® system can reduce equipment count and on-site installation hours by 28 percent and land use by 30 percent in a 1GWh project compared with a 5MWh solution. It delivers 96 percent round-trip efficiency over a four-hour cycle and more than 10,000 cycles, while liquid cooling and AI-enabled operations support stable performance and predictable lifecycle costs.
For commercial vehicles, REPT BATTERO focused on payload, range and charging downtime. Its Chenxing S350, S455 and S600 address different transport scenarios, while the Chenxing D800 Pro is 700 kg lighter than conventional solutions, uses a 10 percent shorter battery enclosure and supports 1.3 MW charging. The company estimates that the system could generate approximately €20,500 in additional operating income per vehicle over five years.
For passenger vehicles, low-altitude aircraft and embodied AI applications, the company introduced two Wending® hybrid solid-liquid batteries. The manganese-based version can support a vehicle range of up to 800 km with an 85 kWh battery pack. The ternary version delivers a cell-level energy density above 375 Wh/kg and has passed more than 100 safety validation tests across the cell, module and system levels.
Across these applications, the goal is to translate battery performance into practical value - from keeping compute infrastructure online to improving vehicle economics and extending aircraft range under strict weight constraints.
Different starting points, same drive

If "HEART OF A CHAMPION" showed how teams achieve technical breakthroughs through years of research, testing and manufacturing, "MOMENT OF A DREAM" told a parallel story of an individual pushing beyond personal boundaries through sustained practice.
    Hao Liu performs Croatian Rhapsody with the ensemble.
REPT BATTERO invited young pianist Hao Liu to serve as the event's Dream Ambassador. Blind since childhood, Liu remained committed to music through years of study and intensive training. He graduated from the Peabody Institute of the Johns Hopkins University and will continue his studies at the New England Conservatory in Boston.
    Hao Liu performs La Campanella.
Although Liu and REPT BATTERO work in different fields, their stories share a similar trajectory. When REPT BATTERO was founded nine years ago, it was a newcomer to an established battery industry. Since then, it has built its capabilities from the ground up, achieving its first full-year profit in 2025, then retaining No.1 globally in residential energy storage cell shipments in 2026 H1 (Source: SNE Research; GGII; SMM; ICC). Liu has similarly challenged assumptions about what a blind musician can achieve. Both stories show how sustained commitment can overcome the limits of a starting point.
This shared spirit led REPT BATTERO to invite Liu as its Dream Ambassador. Representing more than just a concert following a product launch, "MOMENT OF A DREAM" expressed respect for those committed to a goal and a belief that individuals and organizations can grow over time.
More important than being No.1 is moving forward together
"HEART OF A CHAMPION" and "MOMENT OF A DREAM" both conveyed the idea that being a champion goes beyond market rankings. REPT BATTERO's No.1 global position in residential energy storage cell shipments reflects its business progress, while its products and cultural aspirations demonstrate how the company intends to grow. More important than achieving a No.1 ranking is the ability to keep moving forward together.

二 |     Are 3D mammograms better than standard 2D imaging for catching advanced cancers?A clinical trial is recruiting thousands of volunteers — including a large number of Black women who face disparities in breast cancer death rates — to try to find out.People like Carole Stovall, a psychologist in Washington, D.C., have signed up for the study to help answer the question.“We all need a mammogram anyway, so why not do it with a study that allows the scientists to understand more and move closer to finding better treatments and ways of maybe even preventing it?” Stovall said.The underrepresentation of women and minorities in research is a long-simmering issue affecting health problems including Alzheimer’s disease, stroke and COVID-19. Trials without diversity lead to gaps in understanding of how new treatments work for all people. “Until we get more Black women into clinical trials, we can’t change the science. And we need better science for Black bodies,” said Ricki Fairley, a breast cancer survivor and advocate who is working on the issue.Black women are 40% more likely to die from breast cancer than white women and tend to be diagnosed younger. But it’s not clear whether 3D mammography is better for them, said Dr. Worta McCaskill-Stevens of the National Cancer Institute.“Are there populations for whom this might be important to have early diagnosis?" asked McCaskill-Stevens. "Or is it harmful,” causing too many false alarms or unneeded follow-up tests and treatments?McCaskill-Stevens, who is Black, leads NCI’s efforts to boost access to cancer research in minority and rural communities. She has joined the study herself.The newer 3D technique has been around for a decade, but there’s never been conclusive evidence that it's better than 2D at detecting advanced cancers. The screening technique combines multiple pictures of the breast taken from different angles to create a 3D-like image. Both 3D and 2D mammograms compress the breast and use low doses of radiation.Prior studies suggest that 3D finds more cancers than 2D, but catching more cancers doesn’t necessarily mean more lives saved. Some cancers missed by standard screening may not progress or need treatment. Previous studies did not randomly assign patients to a screening method, the gold standard for research.The notion “that if it’s new, it’s shiny, then it’s better,” isn’t necessarily true, McCaskill-Stevens said. “Until we have the evidence to support that, then we need well-designed randomized trials.”The trial has enrolled nearly 93,000 women so far with a goal of 128,000. The NCI-funded study is now running in Canada, South Korea, Peru, Argentina, Italy and 32 U.S. states. A site in Thailand will soon begin enrolling patients.“We added more international sites to enhance the trial’s diversity, particularly for Hispanic and Asian women,” said Dr. Etta Pisano, who leads the study. Overall, 42% of participants are Hispanic. As recruiting continues, enrolling Black women and other women of color will “absolutely” continue as a priority, Pisano said.Participants are randomly assigned to either 2D or 3D mammograms and are followed for several years. The number of advanced cancers detected by the two methods will be compared.At the U.S. study sites, 21% of study participants are Black women — that's higher than a typical cancer treatment study, in which 9% of participants are Black, McCaskill-Stevens said.The University of North Carolina has signed up more Black women than any other study site. Nearly a quarter of the nearly 3,000 women enrolled at UNC’s two locations are Black.“Women in North Carolina want to take part in something that’s bigger than them,” said Dr. Cherie Kuzmiak, who leads the UNC arm of the study. “They want this active role in helping determine the future of health care for women.”In Washington, D.C., word of mouth has led to successful recruiting. A chance encounter at her hair salon persuaded Stovall to join the research. While waiting for a hair appointment, she met Georgetown University cancer researcher Lucile Adams-Campbell. The two, both Black, started chatting.“She explained how important it was to get women of color into the program,” said Stovall, who jumped at the chance to catch up on her mammograms after the COVID-19 pandemic delayed screening for her and thousands of others.For Stovall, there was a personal reason to join the research. Her sister recently completed treatment for triple negative breast cancer, an aggressive type that affects Black women at higher rates than white women. Women ages 45 to 74 without a personal history of breast cancer are eligible for the study, which launched in 2017. Many women also are providing blood and cheek swab samples for a database that will be mined for insights.“It’s a dream that people had since the beginning of screening that we wouldn’t fit everybody into the same box,” Pisano said. The study's findings could “reduce disparities if we’re successful, assuming people have access to care.”Stovall, 72, had a brief scare when her mammogram, the traditional 2D type, showed something suspicious. A biopsy ruled out cancer.“I was extremely relieved,” Stovall said. “Everybody I know has heard from me about the need for them to go get a mammogram.”___The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute’s Science and Educational Media Group.
