USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 21 technology areas, active 2015–2018. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: Y02P (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PRODUCTION OR PROCESSING OF GOODS).
The verdict
Sunshine holds 11 US patents across 21 technology areas, rank #25,199 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Sunshine Kaidi NEW Energy Group Co., Ltd. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2015 and 2018, placing Sunshine Kaidi NEW Energy Group Co., Ltd. at rank #25,199 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02P (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PRODUCTION OR PROCESSING OF GOODS). As a Foreign Corporation, Sunshine Kaidi NEW Energy Group Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Sunshine sits between Sumitomo Electric Lightwave Corp. (11 patents, rank #25,195) and Supreme Corporation (11 patents, rank #25,203) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 11 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Sunshine Kaidi NEW Energy Group Co., Ltd.'s 10.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Sunshine Kaidi NEW Energy Group Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Sunshine's 11 grants land it in the top 64% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
