Within the Framework of the Sustainable Development

Uzbekistan is planning a rapid increase in renewable actions. In early 2024, the Uzbek government raised its renewable energy target from 25% to 40% of the electricity mix by 2030. In addition, Uzbekistan heads to establish a more market-oriented electricity sector, with a new electricity legislation enacted last July. The introduction of energy storage projects provides greater supply security and helps mitigate the intermittency of renewable generation.

As a vital part of the national plan, the Lochin 300MWh BESS project will provide 2,190GWh of firm capacity and flexible power annually to support a more resilient local electricity grid. Sungrow supplied its PowerTitan BESS which is embedded with the grid-forming technology, delivering voltage regulation, frequency response, and oscillation damping services, ensuring a stable voltage and frequency in the weak Uzbekistan grid.

Standout Features of PowerTitan 2.0

  • The PowerTitan 2.0 is a professional integration of Sungrow’s power electronics, electrochemistry, and power grid support technologies. The all-in-one AC-DC block design, with pre-assembled battery modules and PCS, ensures seamless integration and ease of installation, streamlining the grid connection time by 50%.
  • It offers a highly scalable design with plug-and-play architecture, supported by pre-certified fire safety compliance testing. Sungrow also conducted the world’s largest BESS burn test for PowerTitan 2.0 last October, setting new safety standards.
  • It integrates iSolarBPS, pioneering battery pre-diagnostics with real-time monitoring and three-tier warning capabilities.

Central Asia has the potential to make an important contribution to the global energy transition. Sungrow has held a leading position in both PV and energy storage markets, and has supplied one of Kazakhstan’s largest solar power plants. The company is prepared to power the region with a future-proof product portfolio and professional services, fully support the Central Asia’s renewable ambition, and foster more community engagements.

Biomedical engineer’s innovative excellence acknowledged

ADELAIDE, Australia, Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — University of Adelaide Associate Professor Jiawen Li has been awarded a prestigious global award by tech giant Sony and scientific publishing company Nature, for her work in biomedical engineering.


Meet Dr Jiawen Li, the first Australian recognised by the Sony Women in Technology Awards with Nature! In this video, she discusses her groundbreaking work that has the potential to improve healthcare globally. She combines nanoscale 3D printing and optical fiber technology to create a hair-thin endoscope that can help cardiologists assess heart attack risks but also opens doors for personalised treatments and applications in neurology and IVF. She also shares her journey and why STEM is vital to Australia.

Associate Professor Li, who works at the University’s School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering and Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing, is the only person in Australia and one of only four women innovators worldwide to be recognised in the inaugural Sony Women in Technology Award with Nature.

After receiving high-calibre applications, the judges’ panel decided to extend a special Judges’ Commendation recognition to Associate Professor Li, an early-career researcher who is leading the University’s multimodal imaging and sensing program.

Marketplace Shake-Up: Amazon Thrives, Catch Closes, Chinese Platforms to Stall

Pattern Releases 2025 Australian Marketplace Consumer Report

MELBOURNE, Australia , Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Australia’s marketplace sector is rapidly transforming, with Amazon strengthening its dominance, Wesfarmers closing Catch, and doubts growing around Temu and Shein, according to new research from ecommerce and marketplace accelerator, Pattern.

Amazon stock
Amazon stock

The findings, published in Pattern’s ‘2025 Marketplace Consumer Report, reveal that marketplaces are now an indispensable part of the online shopping ecosystem, with 94% of Australians purchasing from one in the past 12 months.

“Amazon’s increasing prominence in product discovery, its substantial Prime membership base, and the upcoming launch of the price-competitive platform called ‘Haul’ have solidified its position as Australia’s leading marketplace,” explains Merline McGregor, Managing Director for Pattern Australia. “Meanwhile, Catch has closed, Kogan and MyDeal are growing —although from smaller customer bases than the market’s frontrunners—and early enthusiasm for low-cost Chinese marketplaces appears to have peaked as they struggle to meet shopper expectations.”

Chinese marketplace growth to stall

New research indicates that high-profile Chinese marketplaces Temu and Shein risk losing shoppers in 2025. Although these platforms have rapidly captured market share, only 12% of consumers trust Temu for its product quality, leading to a predicted 7% drop in shoppers. Shein faces similar challenges, with trust levels at just 11%.

“Many Australians trialled Temu and Shein over the last eighteen months due to aggressive pricing and large marketing campaigns. Yet early adopters have found these marketplaces unreliable. Although they may still expand in the future, Temu and Shein face a significant challenge in legitimising themselves within the Australian market and delivering on the customer experience,” observed McGregor.

Alarmingly for the Chinese marketplaces, only 43% of shoppers would consider buying from Temu in 2025, and even this may hinge on improvements in quality and delivery. For Shein, expanding into categories like home and beauty is yet to offset concerns about its core offerings.

Amazon extends its lead

Amazon has cemented its position as Australia’s leading marketplace. The platform attracted 1.1 million new Australian users in 2024, bringing its total to 7.9 million shoppers, accounting for 10% of the country’s total online shopping spend1.

The outlook for Amazon is incredibly strong with a significant 63% of Australians planning to shop on the platform in 2025. Its appeal is particularly strong among younger shoppers (71% of those aged 18-24) and high-income households earning over $200,000 annually (78%).

“Amazon’s focus on fast delivery, quality products, and a seamless shopping experience sets it apart,” said McGregor. “While Chinese platforms have disrupted the market, Amazon’s trusted reputation and ability to adapt—such as the launch of its low-cost ‘Haul’ storefront—ensure it stays ahead.”

Consumers discover new products on marketplaces today 

Australian shoppers are also changing how they research and discover new products online, with traditional search giant, Google, experiencing a 7% decline in people using the platform for new product discovery.

At the same time, the share of consumers who begin their product research on Amazon has risen by 27% year on year, highlighting the platform’s growing impact on purchase decisions.

In 2024, 63% of shoppers bought a product that they had never purchased from Amazon before and 38% visited a brand’s website after discovering it on the platform.

“Online marketplaces play a pivotal role in how shoppers discover and evaluate new products,” said McGregor. “Their extensive variety, combined with transparent customer feedback empowers consumers to explore unfamiliar brands with greater confidence.”

What products will consumers buy from which marketplace in 2025?

Pattern’s research asked consumers what they were likely to buy in 2025 and through which marketplace, with the results indicating:

  • Amazon’s key shopper categories are Books & eBooks (37%), Electronics & Computer (24%) and Home & Kitchen (24%).
  • eBay is competitive across a range of categories, including Electronics & Computer (20%), Books & eBooks (17%) and Clothing, Shoes & Accessories (16%).
  • Temu attracts shoppers with Clothing, Shoes & Accessories (20%), Home & Kitchen (14%).
  • Shein maintains its appeal in Clothing, Shoes & Accessories (19%), while its expansion beyond fashion drives growth in categories like Skincare & Make-up (7%) and Home & Kitchen (6%).
  • Kogan remains strong in Electronics & Computer (11%) and Home & Kitchen (8%).
  • My Deal gains consumer interest for Home & Kitchen (5%) and Clothing, Shoes & Accessories (5%).

“Marketplaces in Australia are set for strong growth in 2025, driven by the strong consumer pull toward convenience, competitive pricing, and rapid delivery. With 94% of Australians already shopping on these platforms, brands can’t afford to sit on the sideline. They must be present where consumers shop. To attract new customers and succeed in a competitive online shopping environment, brands need a dedicated marketplace strategy and to collaborate with specialists like Pattern to maximise their impact,” concluded McGregor.
