From September 23 to 25, 2026, President Xi was invited to pay a state visit to the United States. This is President Xi’s first trip to the United States in three years, and it is also the second meeting between the leaders of the two countries after the meeting between the heads of state of China and the United States in Beijing in May this year.

The two sides had in-depth communication around the "China-U.S. constructive strategic and stable relationship" and reaffirmed the expansion of the list of cooperation and the reduction of the list of issues in areas such as green energy, artificial intelligence, and advanced manufacturing under the framework of mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation. The American business community generally expects that the head of state’s strategic communication will bring more stable expectations - "Once trust is established, other things will be easier."

For the new energy industry, the signal of this visit is clear: recalibration of relations between major powers does not mean decoupling, but moving towards "cooperation under rules and localized symbiosis." Just as China and the United States are regarded as potential tracks by all parties in the field of green energy, batteries, energy storage and smart equipment are moving from "made in China and sold globally" to a new stage of "global construction and local communication". In the eye of the storm, companies with real manufacturing capabilities and service capabilities have a better window to go overseas to North America.

U.S. new energy market: electrification shifting, energy storage and localized manufacturing accelerating

The key word for the U.S. new energy market in 2026 is not "surge", but "reconstruction".

On the one hand, factors such as the reduction of electric vehicle subsidies, interest rates, and charging infrastructure have combined to slow down the pace of electrification of passenger vehicles; on the other hand, the explosion of scenarios such as AI data centers, grid-side peak shaving, industrial and commercial energy storage, and retired power battery echelon utilization have made energy storage one of the most certain growth poles of the North American battery industry.

More importantly, the U.S. market is being reshaped by policies:

• IRA and subsequent tax credit rules emphasize local manufacturing and supply chain compliance;

• Energy storage projects are still supported by investment tax credits, but the “foreign entity” rules have raised the threshold for direct participation of Chinese-funded enterprises;

• Automobile companies and battery companies have transformed power battery production lines and shifted to energy storage cell and system manufacturing;

• In the aspects of materials, electrodes, assembly, formation, testing, recycling, etc., the demand for equipment systems that are “auditable, localizable, and rapid iteration” has increased significantly.

In other words, the U.S. market is no longer a market that “sells Chinese equipment as is” but a market that “uses global capabilities to deliver locally.” This is both a challenge and an opportunity for smart equipment companies.

The Battery Show North America 2026: The "vane" of the North American battery industry

The Battery Show North America is one of the most influential advanced battery and electric transportation technology exhibitions in North America. It is also an important entrance for the global battery industry chain to enter the United States and North American markets.

Exhibition name: The Battery Show North America 2026

Time: October 12-October 15, 2026

Location: Huntington Place, Detroit, Michigan, USA

Scale: More than 16,000 engineers, business managers and innovators, 1,000+ suppliers, 250+ speakers, 140+ hours of conference education

Covering: end-to-end links such as power batteries, energy storage systems, BMS, materials, manufacturing equipment, testing and recycling, thermal management, EV powertrains

Detroit, as the U.S. automobile and power system manufacturing hinterland, gives this exhibition a natural industrial gene of "from vehicle electrification to energy systemization". This is not only a place to see samples, but also a place for North American customers to evaluate suppliers, verify processes, and discuss localized production line plans.

Yifu Intelligent's North American path: from equipment overseas to localized services

In recent years, Yifu has continued to increase its investment in the United States and North American markets, and has established a North American liaison and service agency in the United States. Relying on regional nodes such as Houston, it promotes sales, technical Q&A, spare parts response and localized services. The core logic is very clear: it is not just about selling equipment, but solving the problems of "how to build production lines, how to stabilize processes, how to speed up after-sales, and how to comply with regulations" for customers.

In the North American market, Yifu has formed a modular equipment solution for overseas customers around battery material processing, mixing, pulping, transportation, metering, automated production lines and smart factories. Facing the high requirements of the U.S. market for dust control, batch consistency, data traceability, production line flexibility, and local operation and maintenance, Yifu has reconstructed its domestic mature large-scale lithium battery equipment experience into a delivery system that is more in line with the North American project system.

At the same time, Yifu Intelligent is also promoting:

• English version of technical documents, FDA/UL/CE and other compliance data systems;

• Cross-time zone remote debugging and local on-site service linkage;

• Process adaptation for American energy storage cells, LFP production lines, and electrode manufacturing scenarios;

• Establishing a collaborative network with North American integrators, engineering companies, and equipment agents;

With Houston as the fulcrum, an overseas response mechanism integrating "sales-technology-service" is taking shape. Yifu is not "trying it out" in the U.S. market, but is localizing it with a long-term perspective: Only with a local team to back it up can it withstand the test of a high-threshold market.

Formal invitation: Detroit in October, Yifu is waiting for you at booth 6341

On October 12-15, 2026, Yifu Intelligence will appear at The Battery Show North America 2026.

Whether you are:

• A battery company planning a North American energy storage cell production line;

• Looking for equipment managers for LFP/electrode/pulping/conveying automation;

• Car companies and Tier 1 who are working on localized manufacturing solutions;

• Or North American engineering integrators who hope to establish cooperation with Chinese intelligent equipment companies,

Yifudu sincerely invites you to——

• Booth number: 6341

• Huntington Place, Detroit, Michigan, USA

• 2026.10.12–2026.10.15

At the site, you will see Yifu’s core solutions in the field of new energy smart equipment:

More efficient ultra-fine grinding, narrower particle size distribution, lower energy consumption, stronger data traceability, and powder and battery material solutions that are more suitable for overseas localized delivery.

The curtain of new energy between China and the United States is being reopened, and Yifu Intelligent is willing to be a "China Intelligent Manufacturing Partner" for North American customers.
