PN Smart Energy and Limeon Digital Partners Announce Framework Cooperation Agreement to Advance AI-Enabled Solar Asset Optimization

NINGBO, China, Sept. 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PN Smart Energy Limited ("PN Smart" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: PN), a global independent power producer (IPP) focused on the development of clean power stations, critical energy materials, and intelligent energy infrastructure, today announced that, through its key operating subsidiary PN Sunshine Pte. Ltd. ("PN Sunshine"), the Company and Limeon Digital Partners Pte. Ltd. ("Limeon") have entered into a Framework Cooperation Agreement (the "Agreement") to integrate artificial intelligence technologies into the operations and maintenance (O&M) of solar power plants.

The strategic partnership is designed to modernize solar asset management across PN Sunshine's regional portfolio, which has an aggregate capacity of up to 15 MW. Under the framework, the companies intend to progressively deploy AI technologies across a cooperation scope covering up to 5 MW of installed capacity. The collaboration will focus on three primary operational upgrades: * AI-based solar generation forecasting to optimize energy output. * Predictive maintenance and equipment anomaly detection to reduce unplanned downtime. * Remote site monitoring designed to reduce on-site staffing requirements. "Integrating AI technology into our O&M workflow marks an important step in improving our operating performance across the Asia-Pacific region," stated Weiqi Huang, Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "As our solar portfolio scales toward 15 MW, Limeon's AI architecture is intended to help us move from reactive maintenance to intelligent, predictive asset management. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to maximizing energy yields, extending asset lifespans, and delivering sustainable, technology-enabled energy solutions to our stakeholders."
