BloombergNEF ranks LONGi as Tier 1 energy storage provider for Q2 2026 highlighting its bankability and project execution

BloombergNEF has officially included LONGi in its Energy Storage Tier 1 List for the second quarter of 2026. This classification identifies the company as a top tier manufacturer based on its professional track record and financial stability within the global energy market. The listing serves as a transparent benchmark for project developers and investors seeking reliable technology partners for large scale energy storage infrastructure.

Strict BNEF criteria confirm the deployment capabilities and reliability of LONGi storage solutions

The selection for the Tier 1 list is based on requirements regarding bankability and successful project delivery. To be listed manufacturers must have supplied or been firmly contracted to supply products to at least six different projects in the past two years. Each project must exceed 10 MW or 10 MWh and be owned by independent developers. In the current 2Q 2026 report, BloombergNEF identified 66 companies that met these standards. The inclusion of LONGi confirms its ability to deliver high quality storage solutions that meet the technical and financial demands of the European utility sector.

Full stack integration of BC technology and storage solutions improves system performance

The recent Q1 2026 report highlights the acceleration of the solar and storage integration strategy at LONGi. During the first quarter the company launched its full stack self-developed solar storage products and was included as a BloombergNEF Tier 1 energy storage manufacturer for the first time. The strategic shift toward the LONGi ONE architecture combines advanced BC technology with a comprehensive 5S storage approach.

The production capacity for HPBC 2.0 cells has reached 57 GW including collaborative capacity which supports the goal of BC modules accounting for more than 65 percent of total shipments in 2026. With a target of 6 GWh in energy storage system shipments for 2026, LONGi leverages its financial resilience and a safe asset liability ratio of 64.43 percent to drive long term stability. This integrated approach ensures that European customers benefit from optimized lifecycle costs and a single point of responsibility for their energy infrastructure.
