SINGAPORE, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Corporate mentoring platform, Mentor List, today highlighted the growth of its invitation-only Mastermind program, expanding to Singapore under the guidance of Chair Bahren Shaari, former Chief Executive Officer of Bank of Singapore and one of the nation’s most respected banking and public service figures.

Since launching in April, Singapore Mastermind has grown into an established community of the country’s leading CEO and C-Suite executives, meeting regularly for confidential, high-trust peer sessions, personally chaired by Mr Shaari. Shaari led Bank of Singapore from 2015 to 2022, a period in which the bank extended its global reach across Singapore, Europe, Dubai and Hong Kong, capping a finance career of more than three decades. 

“Great leadership is rarely built in isolation,” said Bahren Shaari, Group Chair, Mentor List Singapore Mastermind. “Throughout my career, the most valuable insights have come from candid conversations with peers who understand the weight of the decisions we make. What we are building in Singapore is a community founded on that same trust, and the calibre of the leaders around the table has been outstanding. I look forward to seeing it grow.”

Members have heard directly from high-profile guest mentors, including Ho Kwon Ping, Executive Chairman of Banyan Tree, and Mike Smith, former Chief Executive Officer of HSBC Asia. Mentors go beyond theory and share their lived experience of being an accomplished leader at the highest level. The response has exceeded expectations, underlining a clear appetite among Singapore’s senior leaders for structured, experience-led peer mentoring.

“Bahren represents exactly what Mentor List stands for: proven leadership, generosity of spirit, and a genuine commitment to lifting others,” said David Lewis, Founder, Mentor List. “The response from the market has already exceeded our expectations, and that tells us there is a real appetite here for the kind of honest, experience-led peer mentoring we provide. We could not be more excited about the community we are building alongside Bahren and the leaders who join him.”

SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Growatt, a global leading provider of distributed energy solutions, has announced the launch of MINA, a new single-phase all-in-one home energy storage system designed to help homeowners store, manage and use solar energy more intelligently. Built for modern residential solar applications, MINA combines battery storage, backup power, smart energy management and flexible expansion in one compact solution.

As residential solar adoption continues to grow globally, homeowners are looking for more practical ways to increase solar self-consumption, reduce reliance on the grid and manage changing electricity costs. In many regions, evolving feed-in tariffs, time-of-use electricity pricing and rising demand for energy independence are making home battery storage an increasingly important part of rooftop solar systems.

MINA is designed to address these needs by storing excess solar energy generated during the day and making it available for use in the evening, at night or during peak electricity price periods. This helps homeowners maximise the value of their rooftop solar power while improving control over household energy use.

The system integrates hybrid inverter technology, modular battery storage, backup power support and intelligent monitoring into a streamlined all-in-one design. By combining key residential energy storage functions into one system, MINA helps reduce installation complexity, improve system appearance and provide a simpler experience for both installers and homeowners.

One of MINA’s key advantages is its battery optimiser technology, which enables smarter battery module management. In conventional battery systems, overall performance can be affected by differences between battery modules, such as different charge levels, usage histories or ageing conditions. MINA’s battery optimiser helps each module operate more efficiently, reducing the impact of module mismatch and supporting more flexible battery expansion over time.

This makes MINA especially suitable for households whose energy needs may change in the future. Homeowners can start with a battery configuration that fits their current electricity consumption and expand later as demand grows due to additional appliances, electric vehicles, home offices or stronger backup power requirements.

MINA also supports backup power for essential household loads during grid outages. With fast switching capability, the system can help maintain power for selected appliances such as lighting, refrigeration, Wi-Fi, home office equipment and other important household devices. For homeowners seeking greater energy resilience, MINA provides additional peace of mind.

For markets such as Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom and other European countries, MINA offers a future-ready solution for changing residential energy needs. Its smart energy management and time-of-use control help households adapt to variable electricity prices and changing solar export policies by using stored solar energy when it is needed most.

The system is also designed with installer efficiency in mind. Its all-in-one architecture helps reduce wiring complexity, while smart monitoring and diagnostic capabilities support easier commissioning, system management and maintenance. Through Growatt’s intelligent monitoring platform, homeowners and installers can view solar generation, battery status, energy consumption and system performance in real time.

“MINA reflects Growatt’s commitment to making clean energy smarter, simpler and more accessible for homes around the world,” said Lisa Zhang, VP at Growatt. “With its all-in-one design, battery optimiser technology and flexible expansion capability, MINA gives homeowners greater control over their energy use while helping installers deliver a more efficient and future-ready storage solution.”

With the launch of MINA, Growatt continues to strengthen its residential energy storage portfolio and support the global transition toward smarter, more sustainable home energy systems. Combining intelligent design, flexible battery management and practical backup capability, MINA offers a scalable solution for homeowners seeking energy independence in a changing electricity landscape.
