August 13, Shanghai, China – HiTHIUM, a leading innovator in energy storage solutions, today announced a strategic partnership with The Imperial Electric Company (Pvt.) Ltd. (IEC Pakistan), one of Pakistan’s most established power system integrators, to distribute 1GWh of residential and commercial & industrial (C&I) energy storage products across Pakistan. The signing ceremony took place today at the China International Energy Storage Expo (EESA EXPO) in Shanghai, China, marking a significant milestone in HiTHIUM’s global expansion and commitment to energy equity.
A New Era for Pakistan’s Energy Landscape
The agreement represents a major step forward in Pakistan’s energy landscape, with HiTHIUM and IEC collaborating to deploy 1GWh of advanced energy storage solutions tailored for residential and commercial use. Central to this partnership is the distribution of HiTHIUM’s HeroEE home storage system series, a high-performance solution designed for reliability and efficiency in diverse environments. Beyond product distribution, the two companies will jointly develop customized energy storage systems to address Pakistan’s specific energy challenges, ensuring optimal performance under local conditions.
As part of the collaboration, IEC Pakistan will serve as the distributor for HiTHIUM’s residential storage products, significantly expanding access to cutting-edge energy solutions across the country. To further support this initiative, HiTHIUM will establish a local service center, providing technical expertise and rapid response to customers, reinforcing the company’s commitment to long-term market growth and customer satisfaction.
Revolutionizing Energy Storage with HiTHIUM’s HeroEE Series
HiTHIUM is redefining the future of energy storage with its safe, long-lasting, and high-efficiency solutions, designed to meet the surging global demand for sustainable power. Using the HeroEE from this collaboration as an example:
Ultra-Safe LFP Battery Chemistry: Built with lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) cells that are inherently non-combustible, eliminating thermal runaway risks while delivering 11,000+ deep cycles at 90% depth of discharge (DOD).
Flexible Expansion: Add battery units based on actual power needs to flexibly expand capacity from 16kWh to 256kWh.
Easy Maintenance: Independent modules allow for individual testing or replacement without disassembling the entire system.
Flexible System: PCS and other components can be configured according to actual scenarios, suitable for highly professional energy storage systems.
No Black Out: Maximum discharge current:200A, simultaneously supplying power to multiple loads.
For commercial and industrial applications, HiTHIUM delivers modular, scalable storage solutions that enhance energy resilience and reduce operational costs. These systems are engineered for peak performance in demanding environments, supporting businesses in optimizing energy usage and integrating renewable power sources. With a strong focus on innovation, HiTHIUM’s C&I solutions are trusted by industries worldwide for their safety, durability, and smart energy management capabilities.
Empowering Pakistan: Tackling Energy Challenges
Pakistan, home to over 200 million people, faces persistent challenges in energy reliability and affordability. This partnership aims to democratize access to stable, cost-effective green energy by leveraging HiTHIUM’s advanced battery technology and IEC’s deep market expertise.
“This collaboration transcends business—it’s a mission to bring energy equity to Pakistani households and businesses,” said by Mr. Jianyong You, Deputy General Manager of HiTHIUM Residential Energy Storage Division. “By combining our cutting-edge storage solutions with IEC’s unmatched local presence, we’re empowering communities to break free energy instability and high costs.”
“We are delighted to establish a partnership with HiTHIUM, which will bring advanced energy storage technology and products to Pakistan, allowing more people to be free from the impact of unstable power supply,” said Mr.Rehman Reza, Operations Director of IEC Group.
The partnership accelerates HiTHIUM’s footprint in South Asia, reinforcing Pakistan as a priority market for energy storage solutions. It also bridges technological advancements, introducing advanced Chinese energy storage innovations to Pakistan’s growing renewable sector. Beyond business growth, this collaboration strengthens economic ties between China and Pakistan, supporting sustainable development and energy access goals.
The collaboration lays the foundation for enduring progress in Pakistan’s energy sector, with potential expansions into large-scale storage and renewable energy projects in the future.
