UAE-based Global South Utilities (GSU) has announced a strategic industrial collaboration with Weiheng, a Chinese global manufacturer of battery energy storage systems (BESS), aimed at localising advanced clean-energy manufacturing in Abu Dhabi and supporting the UAE’s industrial development, energy transformation, and Global South supply-chain ambitions.
The announcement
was made during Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2026, reported WAM.
Under the
partnership, GSU will act as the regional platform for market access, project
integration, and downstream deployment, connecting Weiheng’s energy storage
technologies with utility-scale, commercial, and industrial projects across
Africa and Asia.
The collaboration
combines GSU’s experience in developing and deploying clean-energy
infrastructure in underserved markets with Weiheng’s expertise in energy
storage design, manufacturing, and system integration.
Weiheng’s systems enable industrial and mid-size energy users to optimise energy consumption, reduce operating costs, and enhance power reliability, aligning with GSU’s focus on delivering scalable clean-energy infrastructure across the Global South.
