What 3Tech does

3Tech Corporate Limited is a privately-held Hong Kong-headquartered digital energy solutions provider focused on telecommunications and data centre infrastructure. The company designs and manufactures power generation, energy storage, power conversion, and remote-monitoring systems under its LionRock sub-brand (diesel and methanol generator sets from 30kVA to 3000kVA, DC power systems from 2000A to 6000A, energy cabinets, rectifier modules), DataCage prefabricated Tier III data centres, and the in-house OwlEye smart monitoring platform. Its LOBE Digital Energy Solution integrates renewable sources (solar, wind, hydro), diesel/methanol generators, battery storage, and OwlEye-managed control for sites with low-quality or unavailable grid power. Manufacturing is centered in Dongguan, China, with R&D and business development operations in Longyan (Xinluo District), and the company maintains 20+ years of operating presence across Africa, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

The business model is primarily hardware sales of power systems and prefabricated data centres to enterprise customers (telecom operators, data centre operators, government, and industrial buyers), complemented by a freemium OwlEye Mobile App tied to software maintenance contracts and recurring after-sales technical training services. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales (with regional managers covering Latin America and Europe), multi-year presence at industry exhibitions (MWC Barcelona 7-8 years, Telefonica Global Workshop 4 years, Nigeria Energy, All Energy Australia, Canton Fair), and a global channel of local installation and commissioning partners alongside strategic alliances with OEMs such as Rolls-Royce Solutions, ZTE, Shoto, and Leroy-Somer.

The company reports no venture capital or private equity backing, no disclosed parent entity, and operates with leadership including Managing Director/CEO Leo Liu and Executive Director King Cheng. Marquee customers include Telefonica (Latin America and Spain), Ethio Telecom (Ethiopia, supporting ~115 million population), Pilipino Teleco (Philippines), Algeria Telecom, ZTE, Tonghu Data Centre (Huizhou), and the Hong Kong Environmental Protection Department for the territory's first waste-to-energy project. 3Tech was awarded the 2021 CLP Smart Energy Award and has continued a multi-year cadence of product launches (Blade Power 2020, SMU Data Centre 2022, OwlEye 2.0 2023, Methanol Generator 2024) alongside expansion into Southeast Asian data centre markets and a multi-billion yuan industrial park commitment in Longyan.
