[During the interview, Wallace detailed LONGi's strategic "triangle" approach, integrating Solar PV, Hydrogen, and Energy Storage. She highlighted the successful rebranding of the "LONGi Hi-MO" series and the acquisition of Portis Edge, which has allowed the company to offer cost-effective, premium storage solutions without relying on third-party OEMs.](https://www.aerones.com/)

[A significant portion of the discussion focused on **ESG and traceability**. Wallace emphasized that LONGi takes ethical sourcing and labor standards very seriously, boasting the industry's only "Gold" status manufacturing plant under the Stewardship Initiative. This transparency makes LONGi a top choice for bankable C&I projects and UK government tenders. Furthermore, she showcased their latest technological advancements, including the aesthetic rear-back contact modules and the highly anticipated **anti-glare modules**, all backed by a robust 30-year warranty.
