Envision Energy Rolls Out Gen 8 Scalable Platform: Higher Energy Density, Greater Flexibility, Elevated Returns

BEIJING, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Envision Energy, a global leader in green technology, announced the full rollout of its Gen 8 Scalable Platform at its Tech Day in Beijing. Following the debut of the 8 MWh solution at Intersolar earlier this year, the company is now introducing the complete portfolio of modular configurations, designed to meet a wide spectrum of utility-scale renewable integration, high-performance, and decarbonization project requirements worldwide.

Envision Gen 8 Scalable Platform
Envision Gen 8 Scalable Platform

The Gen 8 Scalable Platform builds on the skid-based modular design of Generation 6, which provides unmatched on-site flexibility and minimizes balance-of-plant (BoP) work, while further advancing the energy density improvements introduced with Generation 7’s 5 MWh container through the adoption of the new 750+ Ah cell. By combining high energy density with a lighter, logistics-friendly 10-foot modular unit, GEN 8 delivers greater adaptability across diverse project sites without compromising efficiency in transport, installation, or operation. Its design supports 6 MWh, 8 MWh, 10 MWh, 12 MWh (and larger) configurations per unit, allowing customers to choose the optimal balance of footprint and duration to suit land availability, project economics, and performance requirements.

Modular Flexibility with Advanced Safety & High Performance

Envision’s 10-foot modular design delivers exceptional adaptability for projects of all sizes, supporting more than four-hour applications with ease. Each unit weighs under 29 tons, enabling smooth, road-ready transport even in regions with strict bridge or axle weight limits.

The lighter modular design offers customers greater flexibility. Clients can opt for lower-tonnage transport vehicles and cranes, improving equipment accessibility, reduces overall project costs, and minimizing land requirements for on-site turning radius and lifting operations. Alternatively, higher-tonnage cranes can be employed to install multiple energy storage units without relocating the crane, shortening overall project installation and ad commissioning time by up to 30%.

A prevention-first fire safety strategy provides multi-layer protection – from cell to system level – in compliance with the industry’s most stringent standards. It also achieves a 12% reduction in auxiliary power consumption. Optimized SoC algorithms and continuous dynamic balancing keep the system operating at maximum usable capacity, with precise estimation of the battery’s operational status.

Lower LCOE with Intelligent Optimization for Higher Returns

Each modular unit is built on a high-capacity platform with 750+ Ah cells, delivering greater energy density, a 26% smaller footprint for typical 4-hour systems, and  12% lower auxiliary power consumption, cutting overall project costs and extending service life. These efficiencies translate into stronger economics, including an estimated 1% IRR uplift for a 100 MW / 4-hour project compared with a 5 MWh baseline.

Built on Envision’s EnOS intelligent OT–IT ecosystem, the SCADA, EMS, and Hybrid PPC solutions deliver an integrated, end-to-end control architecture that enables complex real-time management, predictive maintenance, and revenue optimization. Cloud-enabled fleet management leverages machine learning to enhance performance and extend system lifetime, ensuring every project achieves maximum financial returns. Advanced analytics provide early detection of thermal and electrical anomalies to safeguard assets, while predictive maintenance and adaptive system learning reduce downtime and maintenance costs. Accurate SoC/SoE forecasting and optimized dispatch further maximize revenue and overall project profitability.

Advanced PCS with Environmental Durability

Envision Energy is unveiling its second 10 MVA configuration, featuring four parallel-coupled 2.5 MW PCS units. This modular PCS design enhances system availability and resilience, while delivering a lower noise profile than single larger-machine counterparts, a critical advantage in noise-sensitive environments. Engineered for the toughest conditions, the system operates reliably from -30°C to +55°C and meets IP55 and C5 anti-corrosion standards to withstand salt, humidity, and harsh outdoor environments. Low-noise technology (≤55 dB(A)) with optimized aerodynamics and control algorithms minimizes airflow resistance and fan noise, making it ideal for sound-sensitive sites.

“Gen 8 Scalable Platform reflect our continuous commitment to delivering storage systems that combine technical excellence with practical adaptability,” said Kevin Huang, Senior Vice President and President of Energy Storage Product Line at Envision Energy, “Rather than a single product, this series offers a complete family of solutions, giving our customers the flexibility to design projects that meet their specific needs while maintaining the highest levels of reliability and performance. By combining cutting-edge storage technology, scalable manufacturing, and deep system integration expertise, the Gen 8 Scalable Platform not only supports a cleaner, smarter, and more resilient energy future but also reinforces our dedication to accelerating the global transition to renewable energy.”

MINISH Technology Has Successfully Concluded Its First U.S. MINISH Veneers Course, Certifying 22 Dentists

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Health-tech company MINISH Technology Inc. announced on the 27th that 22 dentists completed its 15th MINISH Course, the first session held for local practitioners in the United States.

Participants of the 15th MINISH Course and MINISH Technology representatives at the completion ceremony.
Participants of the 15th MINISH Course and MINISH Technology representatives at the completion ceremony.

The three-day course was held from October 24 to 26 at the VITA North America training center in Orange County, California, as an officially recognized Continuing Education (CE) program for dental professionals in the United States. Although tuition fees were nearly 50% higher than comparable local programs, the course sold out quickly, demonstrating strong interest among participants.

The MINISH Course covers both the philosophy and theory behind MINISH Veneers, the company’s proprietary tooth restoration solution, along with a comprehensive hands-on curriculum that includes tooth preparation, scanning, bonding, occlusion, and placement. Launched in 2022, the program aims to train dentists in MINISH Veneers–based treatments, known as MINISH Doctors, and to expand the global network of MINISH Providers. As of October 2025, a total of 342 dentists have completed the course across 15 courses.

This course marked the first time that the MINISH Course was conducted outside Korea. While MINISH Veneers had previously hosted clinical seminars in Tokyo and Beverly Hills, this was the first comprehensive training program held overseas that included hands-on practical sessions. In Japan, many local dentists have preferred to attend the course in Korea, where they can participate in training, tour MINISH facilities, and engage with existing MINISH Providers. As a result, three in-person courses for international dentists were held in Korea in November 2023, April 2024, and September 2024.

Graduates of the program can apply to become MINISH Providers after completing clinical proficiency and qualification assessments, as well as an on-site facility evaluation. As of October 2025, there are a total of 75 MINISH Providers worldwide, including 43 in Korea, 29 in Japan, one in the United States, one in Canada, and one in Vietnam.

The MINISH Course for international dentists is held four times a year, with two in Japan and two in the United States.

A representative from MINISH Technology stated, “Hosting our first training program in the United States, the world’s largest healthcare market, marks a significant milestone in our global expansion. With our presence now extending beyond Asia and into North America, we are establishing a strong foundation to grow as a truly global health-tech company.”

RWA.LTD Leads Industry Breakthrough: First Application of x402 Protocol on BSC Chain, Diamond RWA Ecosystem Enters New Era

Industry Milestone! RWA.LTD Becomes the First Application of x402 Protocol on BSC Chain

HONG KONG, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In the wave of Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization, RWA.LTD once again sets a new industry record! As the world’s first non-financial RWA trading platform, we are proud to announce: RWA.LTD has become the first application of the x402 Protocol on the BSC chain, and has taken the lead in deeply integrating it into e-commerce payment links, laying a key foundation for the technological innovation of chain-commerce. Meanwhile, we open this service to more clients—other clients can pay fees with $RWA tokens, share technological dividends, and jointly build a new RWA ecosystem.

What is x402? What is its Strategic Value?

The x402 Protocol is an internet-native decentralized payment protocol jointly developed by Coinbase and Cloudflare, built on the “Payment Required” 402 status code in the HTTP standard, enabling “payment processes as simple and efficient as web page access”. Recently, its ecological token PING has surged by over 802% in 24 hours, with a market value exceeding $32 million, fully demonstrating its market heat and technological value. As a groundbreaking innovation in Web3 payment infrastructure, it has three core values:

  • Machine Payment Automation: Supports AI agents to complete transactions autonomously, providing underlying payment support for machines to become independent economic entities in the intelligent economy;
  • Micro-transactions and Multi-scenario Adaptation: Adapts to micro-payment scenarios such as API calls and data purchases, compatible with multiple chains and multiple currencies, achieving chain and token neutrality;
  • Decentralized Compliant Circulation: Funds directly enter users’ Web3 wallets, avoiding the risks of centralized gateways, while meeting the compliance requirements for asset on-chaining.

The x402 Protocol has set off a disruptive revolution in payment processes: from the traditional paradigm relying on manual operations and user leadership, it leaps to a new ecosystem of instant programmatic transactions supporting autonomous agents. By embedding blockchain settlement directly into the HTTP protocol, x402 successfully builds a strategic bridge between traditional network technologies and decentralized finance, opening up a new channel for the evolution of Web3 payment infrastructure!

Diamond RWA Benchmark Case: DIMD Validates the Implementation Value of x402

DIMD, the world’s first diamond RWA token issued by us, has become a benchmark case for the implementation of the x402 Protocol. Each DIMD is anchored to real diamond jewelry, and realizes efficient and compliant on-chaining of assets with full-process traceability through the x402 Protocol: users can complete the “token→physical” redemption through a standardized payment process. Whether it is fractional ownership, merge redemption, online ownership confirmation, or offline delivery, funds directly enter personal Web3 wallets relying on x402, upgrading diamond collection from a traditional niche scenario to a globally participable on-chain consensus asset, fully verifying the empowering potential of x402 for the RWA ecosystem.

Ecosystem Co-construction, Defining the New Era of RWA

From technological innovation to ecosystem co-construction, from asset digitization to global consensus circulation, RWA.LTD has always been committed to the mission of “Making Every RWA Shine Globally”. We are not only a builder of RWA infrastructure, but also a standard-setter in the industry—serving professional institutions in asset on-chaining and marketization, and providing individual users with full-process support from wallet creation to transaction flow.

ONYX Hospitality Group Partners with SENA HHP to Launch Shama Sukhumvit 101, Expanding Its Serviced Apartment Portfolio in Thailand


BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 October 2025 – The debut of Shama Sukhumvit 101 highlights ONYX Hospitality Group’s proven expertise in management and service excellence, underscoring its commitment to expanding its footprint in Thailand’s serviced apartment sector.

ONYX Hospitality Group Partners with SENA HHP to Launch Shama Sukhumvit 101, Expanding Its Serviced Apartment Portfolio in Thailand

November 2025: ONYX Hospitality Group, a leading regional player in Southeast Asian hospitality, has entered into a strategic partnership with SENA HHP Co., Ltd. to launch Shama Sukhumvit 101. The property is a premium serviced apartment under the Shama brand of stylish residences in prime locations, situated in one of Bangkok’s most vibrant and well-connected districts. It is scheduled to open on 1st December 2025.

Strategically positioned amid mixed-use developments, offices, retail, and dining destinations, Shama Sukhumvit 101 is designed to offer long-stay guests a premium living experience that combines comfort, convenience, and warmth. The 86-unit property features contemporary interiors with spacious layouts ranging from 40 to over 60 square metres, complemented by premium amenities including a fitness centre, swimming pool, first aid room, EV charging stations, and automated parking. The project transforms Piti Sukhumvit 101, one of SENA’s upscale condominiums, into a sophisticated serviced apartment managed under ONYX’s internationally recognised Shama brand.

Ideally located in one of Bangkok’s most dynamic business and lifestyle districts, the property is just a short walk from Punnawithi and Bangchak BTS stations. Nearby landmarks include True Digital Park, Southeast Asia’s largest tech and startup campus; M Tower, headquarters of Bangchak Corporation; and BHIRAJ TOWER at BITEC, a premier office complex directly connected to the Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre (BITEC).

The area also provides convenient access to leading international schools such as Anglo Singapore International School and Wells International School, as well as major industrial and logistics hubs including Bang Phli Industrial Estate, WHA Mega Logistics Center, and Frasers Property Logistics Park—making it an ideal choice for business professionals and families alike.

Adding to its appeal, Shama Sukhumvit 101 features the Shama Social Club, the brand’s signature lifestyle programme that curates engaging activities to help residents connect with one another and the surrounding community. By combining the unique lifestyle of each Shama location with attentive, heartfelt service, the brand fosters a strong sense of belonging—an essential part of the Shama experience. Whether staying short-term or long-term, residents can expect a high-quality living environment that feels both personal and connected.

Mr. Yuthachai Charanachitta, CEO of ONYX Hospitality Group, commented that the partnership marks a meaningful step in the company’s continued expansion into Thailand’s serviced apartment market. He emphasised the growing demand for long-stay accommodation in Bangkok, particularly in high-potential areas like Sukhumvit, which continues to attract both Thai and international residents.

“We see Sukhumvit 101 as a high-potential location,” he said. “It offers convenient access to the city centre via public transportation and is surrounded by business districts, office buildings, educational institutions, and regional logistics centers. These factors contribute to strong residential demand, especially among business travelers and expatriate families, making it a suitable location for serviced apartment development.”

Shama Sukhumvit 101 not only reflects ONYX Hospitality Group’s continued growth in the Thai market, but also reinforces the Shama brand’s commitment to delivering stylish, contemporary serviced apartment experiences in prime urban locations. The brand aims to offer more than just a place to stay—it provides a comfortable, home-like environment that aligns with the lifestyle needs of today’s residents.

As part of this collaboration, ONYX Hospitality Group has been entrusted by SENA HHP Co., Ltd. to oversee the full scope of project management.

This includes enhancing service quality and resident experience, as well as implementing marketing, sales, and operational systems that align with ONYX’s international standards. ONYX will also manage human resources, staff training, revenue systems, and technology integration to ensure that Shama Sukhumvit 101 delivers a premium serviced apartment experience that truly meets the expectations of its target market,” said Mr. Yuthachai Charanachitta, CEO of ONYX Hospitality Group.

Asst. Prof. Dr. Kessara Thanyalakpark, Managing Director of SENA Development Public Company Limited, stated: “This collaboration between SENA HHP and ONYX Hospitality Group stems from a shared vision to elevate Shama Sukhumvit 101 to international standards of management and service. With ONYX’s established reputation and expertise in operating hotels, resorts, and serviced apartments throughout Southeast Asia, we are confident that this property will resonate with Thai and international residents, business professionals, and families seeking a second home in Bangkok.”

SENA Development, recognised as a Sustainable Living Leader, continues to advance its SENA Low Carbon initiative — part of its mission to create projects that actively reduce carbon emissions while enhancing residents’ quality of life. The partnership reflects SENA’s long-term commitment as a Lifelong Trusted Partner, focusing not only on housing development but also on creating sustainable value for people, communities, and the environment.

Managed by ONYX Hospitality Group, Shama Sukhumvit 101 offers a comprehensive range of services designed for modern urban living.

Perfectly suited for business executives, expatriate families, long-stay travellers, and MICE guests, the property delivers premium residential experiences in the heart of Bangkok.

Partnering with SENA HHP Co., Ltd. positions ONYX Hospitality Group for accelerated and sustainable expansion in Thailand’s serviced apartment sector.

The event was officiated by Ms Rachel Ong, Adviser to Tanjong Pagar GRC Grassroots Organisations, who participated in the harvesting and packing of vegetables for distribution to residents in the vicinity.

Ms Rachel Ong said: “Growing food is not just about feeding our bodies, it’s about cultivating connection, stewarding the land, and planting seeds of change for future generations. When we dig our hands into the soil together, we’re growing community.”

The Healthy Harvest initiative aims to achieve the following environmental and community outcomes:

  • Collect 6,000 kg of food waste from the community for composting;
  • Harvest and distribute 3,000 kg of fresh produce, equivalent to approximately 20,000 packets, to be distributed to the community;
  • Engage 120 seniors, persons with disabilities (PWDs), and residents as regular volunteers; and
  • Engage over 1,000 participants, including Prudential employees, financial representatives, and customers, in experiential workshops to learn about sustainable gardening practices and cultivate healthy eating habits.

Ms Tan Ping Ping, Head of Sustainability, Prudential Singapore, said: “Healthy Harvest is a collaboration with the SG Eco Fund that reflects our commitment to building climate and health resilience in the community. Through this initiative, we want to empower the community to grow their own food, embrace sustainable living, and make healthier lifestyle choices. As a life and health insurer, we are proud to support initiatives that promote long-term wellbeing. We invite the Telok Blangah residents to join us in cultivating a healthier, more resilient Singapore.”

Mr Desmond Ho, Trust Secretary, SG Eco Fund, said: “The SG Eco Fund supports community projects that advance environmental sustainability in Singapore. We are happy to partner Prudential on the Healthy Harvest initiative, alongside other programmes, to engage the community on environmental sustainability and climate resilience whilst contributing to the goals of our Singapore Green Plan 2030. We hope this effort will inspire more ground-up partnerships to drive collective action in the community.”

Run by social enterprises Farmilysg (Telok Blangah) and City Sprouts (West Coast Park), the community gardens offer inclusive spaces to learn about sustainable food-growing practices and healthy eating. Both gardens feature wheelchair-accessible raised beds and will host activities that are open to the community.

At Telok Blangah, vertical A-frames and modular raised beds are set up within the community garden spanning 185 m2. The space will host educational workshops, food waste collection drives to support composting efforts, and regular distribution of fresh produce at community events organised by Telok Blangah Community Club and the grassroots organisations including Parcview Residents’ Network. Through collaborative volunteering efforts and community-driven activities, the initiative offers meaningful opportunities for residents to build connections and community resilience together.

Meanwhile, the 50 m2 community garden at West Coast Park includes greenhouse lots, raised bed planters and a hydroponic house structure that enable seniors, the young and people with disabilities to take part in gardening activities and workshops. Students with autism will also engage in simple, repetitive gardening tasks that are manageable and therapeutic.

The community gardens are part of Prudential’s special SG60 community investment to celebrate Singapore’s 60th birthday and Prudential’s office move to Labrador Tower. Following the announcement in June 2025, Prudential will increase its total investment into the community this year from $880,000 to $1,000,000. Part of the additional funding will go towards creating more activities at the gardens.

TOKYO, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nippon Express (Taiwan) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “NX Taiwan”), a group company of NIPPON EXPRESS HOLDINGS, INC., has begun operations at the Taoyuan NEXT8 Warehouse in the northern Taiwanese city of Taoyuan, marking the new facility’s opening with a ceremony held on Monday, September 15.

Situated in northern Taiwan, Taoyuan City is an ideal location for a logistics base because it is home to Taoyuan International Airport, Taiwan’s primary air transport gateway, and it offers excellent access to a large metropolitan area, Taipei Port, Keelung Port and other key infrastructure facilities. Logistics demand in northern Taiwan, especially for auto parts and general consumer goods, has continued to grow in recent years, and NX Taiwan has constructed the Taoyuan NEXT8 Warehouse as its sixth business location in the Taoyuan area to meet this rising demand. The facility consolidates multiple buffer warehouses utilized mainly during peak seasons, thereby reducing the volume of lateral transfers and improving service quality.

The new warehouse has been outfitted with state-of-the-art automated equipment to provide an environment where all employees can work in comfort and with accuracy. Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), automated guided vehicles (AGV), and other automated equipment have been combined with human operations to provide one-stop receiving, storage, picking, packing, and delivery services. A raised-floor platform and three dock levelers accommodate ocean containers and other shipping modes, while elevators, an autolator, heavy-duty racks, 24/7 manned security, and surveillance cameras ensure safe and efficient operations. NX Taiwan can now offer even more efficient and higher-quality logistics services as part of the supply chains of customers across a range of industries.

At the opening ceremony, Chairman Masaru Kawamoto spoke of his expectations for the new business location: “The Taoyuan NEXT8 Warehouse will play a leading role in Taiwan’s development worthy of the ‘8’ in its name symbolizing prosperity. We will support our customers’ supply chains by bolstering our logistics network throughout Taiwan and further expanding our logistics systems.”

The NX Group will continue strengthening its worldwide logistics network to support customers’ supply chains globally.
