Sungrow Receives the World’s First VDE EMC Certificate for Its Microinverter
- Sungrow confirms its focus on safety and innovation by receiving the world’s first VDE EMC Certificate for its microinverter.
- The series of tests followed a number of international standards with the Sungrow microinverter passing all of them in one go.
- Sungrow’s microinverter provides an efficient, reliable, and safe solution for the further deployment of renewable energy by households worldwide.
FRANKFURT, Germany, Dec. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of Microinverters is critical to the stability and safety of residential PV systems. Poor EMC performance can cause system malfunctions, interfere with household appliances and wireless networks, and even pose potential safety hazards.
Sungrow has recently earned EMC certification from VDE, one of the largest technology organizations in Europe, for its microinverter, becoming the world’s first company to receive the VDE EMC certificate for the microinverter. The products followed comprehensive testing at the VDE German laboratory and this milestone demonstrates Sungrow microinverter’s exceptional ability to operate seamlessly in complex electromagnetic environments without interfering with other electronic devices, setting a new global standard for the microinverter’s EMC performance.
The tests followed international standards, including DIN EN IEC 61000-6-1, DIN EN IEC 61000-6-3, and EN 301 489-17, and focused on 10 critical performance metrics, such as conducted and radiated susceptibility, as well as immunity to power-frequency magnetic fields. Designed with robust immunity to external electromagnetic interference (EMI) and compliance with Class B emission standards, Sungrow’s microinverter passed all tests in one go, outperforming standard requirements across all metrics and demonstrating exceptional stability and reliability.
Sungrow’s innovations in EMC were key to this success. The microinverter incorporates a soft-switching topology, minimizing EMI at its source. They are further equipped with an all-metal casing and high-conductivity sealing materials that effectively block electromagnetic radiation. Moreover, Sungrow’s microinverter employs advanced control strategies to optimize its operation under extreme conditions such as maximum (PVmax) and minimum (PVmin) PV input, mitigating harmonic distortion and high-frequency EMI.
“With balcony PV systems gaining popularity across Europe, we are delighted to witness Sungrow’s microinverter has successfully passed our rigorous testing,” said Sven Öhrke, Board Member of VDE Institute and CEO of VDE Global Services. “Sungrow truly impressed us during the tests, not only meeting but surpassing the toughest international standards.”
In addition to its outstanding EMC performance, Sungrow’s microinverter stands out for its superior energy efficiency, user-friendly installation, and robust safety features. It delivers full power output even under extreme conditions, such as non-ventilated environments with temperatures reaching up to 60°C, increasing overall energy yields by approximately 2%. Its plug-and-play design significantly enhances installation efficiency by 30%, complemented by intelligent self-checking and one-click network configuration. Having undergone over 200 authoritative tests and achieved 12 international certifications, including IEC 61140, IEC 62109, and IEC 63027, Sungrow’s microinverter is empowering households worldwide to embrace a clean energy future.

Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals Announces U.S. FDA Clearance of the IND application for the innovative Bi-weekly GLP-1RA GZR18 Injection, Bofanglutide, with chronic weight management Indication (A Phase 2 head-to-head with Tirzepatide clinical trial)
BEIJING and BRIDGEWATER, N.J., Dec. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals (Gan & Lee, Shanghai Stock Exchange: 603087.SH), is pleased to announce that the Food and Drug Administration (” FDA “) has cleared the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for GZR18 Injection to conduct a phase 2 clinical trial, a head-to-head with Tirzepatide from Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) in the US (NCT06737042). GZR18 is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) being developed by Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals. The clinical trial indication of this application is the chronic weight management for obese or overweight patients, with or without T2DM.
According to the latest data released by the World Obesity Federation (WOF) Global Obesity Report (2024), approximately 2.2 billion adults worldwide were overweight (referring to BMI ≥ 25kg/m2) in 2020, accounting for about 42% of the total adult population. It is expected that this number will rise to 3.3 billion by 20351. Obesity can lead to a series of complications, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and even mental diseases such as depression. The medical expenses caused by obesity and its complications have brought a heavy medical burden to patients and society.
GZR18, as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, can delay gastric emptying by activating GLP-1 receptors expressed on the gastrointestinal tract; and enhance satiety and suppress appetite by activating GLP-1 receptors in the hypothalamus and other parts, thereby reducing the patient’s weight. GZR18 injection is the first bi–weekly GLP-1 mono-agonist formulation. Current clinical data has demonstrated weight loss effects comparable to or even better than multi-target once-weekly GLP-1 formulations, providing new insights for the future development of GLP-1 drugs. The development of the bi-weekly GZR18 injection is expected to offer more flexible treatment options for obese patients , leading to improved long-term weight management efficacy and adherence.
About GZR18
GZR18 is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (RA) being developed by Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals. The indications currently under development are type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management for obese or overweight patients. Clinical data shows that administering GZR18 injection once a week and every two weeks can achieve good hypoglycemic or weight loss effects2.

About Gan & Lee
Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals developed the first Chinese domestic insulin analog. Currently, Gan & Lee has six core insulin products, including five insulin analog varieties: long-acting glargine injection (Basalin®), fast-acting lispro injection (Prandilin™), fast-acting aspart injection (Rapilin®), mixed protamine zinc lispro injection (25R) (Prandilin™25), aspart 30 injection (Rapilin®30), and one human insulin injection – mixed protamine human insulin injection (30R) (Similin®30). The company has two approved medical devices in China, namely reusable insulin injection pen (GanleePen), and disposable pen needle (GanleeFine®).
In China’s 2024 National Insulin-Specific Centralized Procurement, Gan & Lee Pharmaceuticals ranked first among all selected companies in terms of procurement demand for insulin analogs. The company is also making strides in international markets, with the disposable pen needle (GanleeFine®) approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2020 and received GMP inspection approval from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in 2024. These achievements significantly boost Gan & Lee’s competitiveness in both international and domestic markets.
In the future, Gan & Lee will strive for comprehensive coverage in diabetes treatment. Moving forward with its mission to become a world-class pharmaceutical company, Gan & Lee will also actively develop new chemical entities and biological drugs, focusing on treatments for metabolic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and other therapeutic areas.
