BYD does solar inverters, storage, etc too. They cover the whole range of energy products. Its usually cloud garbage by default but they do have properly documented local modbus/MQTT/http support so still better than some of the western competition.
BYD was battery and drivetrain provider turn car maker. Most others go the other way or not even that as they just buy cells from others.
