By the end of 2023, electricity prices in some regions of Europe had decreased by more than 50% year-on-year. Coupled with the cyclical fluctuations in the industry and policy, the demand for residential and commercial energy storage markets slowed down, affecting the revenue scale and profit of the company's high-margin energy storage business (energy storage inverters, energy storage batteries): in 2023, the revenue proportion of the company's energy storage business decreased from 58.78% in 2022 to 43.77% in 2023. During the year, the company continued to invest in the research and development of several new products such as centralized energy storage systems and micro-inverter systems, resulting in a significant increase in R&D expenses. The company's period expense ratio increased by 8.75 percentage points year-on-year in 2023. The company continued to expand its domestic market, with the domestic revenue proportion rising from 10.39% in 2022 to 24.43% in 2023. As competition in the domestic solar storage market intensified, the gross profit margin of the company's grid-connected inverters in domestic sales decreased year-on-year in 2023 ### Related Stocks - [301658.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/301658.CN.md) - [300750.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/300750.CN.md) - [000591.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/000591.CN.md) - [02611.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/02611.HK.md) - [TXN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TXN.US.md) - [IHS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IHS.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [02:00 ETKehua Delivers India's Largest 180MW / 360MWh Standalone Energy Storage Project](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286861210.md) - [OCI Energy and CPS Energy break ground on Alamo City Battery Energy Storage Project | ING Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286964497.md) - [ZF commits to development and production of e-motors and inverters](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286935266.md) - [Battery storage firms eye AI demand but face grid, supply hurdles](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286790784.md) - [ZAWYA: DEWA says $2.3bn transmission network projects under development](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286665525.md)
