K.S. Pua, Phison CEO and Chairman, said that Phison has entered the high-end industrial storage market more than ten years ago and has begun to show results in recent years. For example, in recent years, due to the demand for charging stations driven by the rise of electric vehicles, Phison has integrated customers' industrial computers, and jointly design-in the charging station system of the largest independent electric vehicle service provider in the United States, and has begun shipping. The requirements of this type of industrial application need that NAND storage products can be used normally under different outdoor environmental conditions. The temperature range may be from low temperature -40 degrees to high temperature of 85 degrees, and it requires 24 hours of uninterrupted operation. It is a considerable challenge for NAND storage products. Through the accumulation of 20 years of technical experience, Phison can not only provide industrial-required storage products that meet the needs of customers of the charging station, but also allow customers to perform remote network control through customized SSD functions, which greatly saves client’s maintenance resources. According to data from market research agencies, the global charging station market has reached 12.7 million units in 2020, which will be positively helpful to Phison's continued increase in the proportion of high-end storage revenue.
