SANY Unveils World’s First 50-Ton Energy-Storage Reach Stacker, a Milestone in Sustainable Global Transition

​

Key Highlights

• World’s first 50-ton energy-storage reach stacker.

• Handles ISO 20ft & 40ft containers.

• 65% energy recovery during boom descent.

• 512 kWh swappable battery system.

• Over 7 hours of continuous operation.

SANY has set a new benchmark in lifting machinery by launching the world’s first 50-ton energy-storage reach stacker on August 1, 2025. This advanced machine is designed to meet the growing demand for efficient and sustainable lifting solutions in large-scale energy-storage projects, supporting the global transition towards carbon neutrality.

Earlier this year, SANY also introduced a 65-ton reach stacker, which has been running smoothly for nearly six months. With the addition of the 50-ton model, the company now offers a stronger portfolio tailored for diverse working conditions, ensuring powerful lifting, higher energy efficiency, and longer endurance.
