Canadian Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: CSIQ) has achieved a significant milestone in the renewable energy sector with the announcement that its residential energy storage system, EP Cube, has won the prestigious Red Dot Design Award 2025. The award places EP Cube among the top 1.5% of over 10,000 entries from 60+ countries, recognizing its excellence in design and innovation [1][2][3].

Designed by Canadian Solar's subsidiary, Eternalplanet, EP Cube stands out for its modular stacking design, which allows for flexible capacity expansion ranging from 5 kWh to 40 kWh. This feature breaks the limitations of fixed-capacity systems, enabling users to adapt the system to their specific energy needs. The ultra-slim profile of EP Cube minimizes installation space and time, making it suitable for a variety of home installation environments. Additionally, EP Cube's three-phase output capability offers a maximum AC output of 12 kVa, providing scalable capacity options to support diverse household energy profiles [1][2][3].

One of the key advantages of EP Cube is its compatibility with existing and new PV systems. This compatibility helps customers reduce their dependence on the grid and promotes the adoption of clean energy solutions. EP Cube has also received the iF Design Award and MUSE Design Award Gold in 2025, further cementing its reputation as a leading residential energy storage product [1][2][3].

Susanne Pflug, Chief Commercial Officer of Canadian Solar's Home Energy Storage Business Unit, commented on the award, stating, "Winning the Red Dot award is not only an honor but also a validation of our mission to drive the future of green energy with innovative technology. EP Cube transforms energy storage technology into a smart home partner, setting a new paradigm between technological innovation and lifestyle aesthetics" [1][2].

The Red Dot Design Award, established in 1955, is one of the world's most prestigious design competitions, often referred to as the "Oscars of Industrial Design." With over 10,000 entries from more than 60 countries in 2025, fewer than 1.5% of entries earn the award, making it a globally recognized mark of design excellence [1][2].
