Leading infrastructure to accelerate electric power intelligence

Carbon neutrality and carbon peak techniques are driving the adoption of brand-new energy worldwide. Brand-new energy is limited by weather condition and environment, which suggests severe weather condition conditions and unforeseeable external environments bring an aspect of unpredictability to brand-new energy sources.

The primary difficulty for future power systems depends on transitioning from load-based power generation in specific environments to source-grid-load-storage interaction in unpredictable environments. To methodically make the most of the worth of digitalization and intelligence, we should think about the following.

Incorporating digitalization with electrical power situations is the only method to attend to the methodical obstacles dealt with by electrical power systems. Huawei’s outlook on power situations might not be from an expert’s perspective, however our fresh point of view can still supply important referral and input for power business.

We require to develop grid-based sources, loads and networks. Grid-based sources, like weather report, can offer precise weather condition information to boost the forecast precision of wind, solar, and hydro power generation. Grid-based loads include the accurate analysis and forecast of energy usage habits. Grid-based networks make it possible for the precise collection of network status info, such as low voltage, reverse voltage overload, three-phase imbalance, active and reactive power, and property running status.

It is needed to line up these 3 grid-based abilities with service methods to attain grid autonomy. In a transformer district, service techniques consist of conventional power intake, dispersed PV gain access to, charging stack group management and control, energy storage interaction, and user interaction.

In addition, “brain” control requires to be effectively connected to attain grid autonomy. We likewise require to produce area for market-oriented interaction. Market-oriented systems support effective and accurate interaction on the need side to accomplish a balance in between supply and need. This consists of taking part in peak guideline according to user market habits.

Second, power business should construct digital abilities fixated digital structure and open environments to attend to the obstacles of brand-new power systems.

The digital structure includes 3 core abilities: common network connection, effective smart computing, and a digital platform that builds up business knowledge properties. These will end up being the brand-new tactical possessions of power business.

In the digital age, no single gamer can fix all discomfort points. Hierarchical decoupling, modularization, and assembled development are important. Open, digital and smart environments need to be developed, consisting of for algorithms, applications, edge computing, and terminals.

These environments will enable market and cross-industry abilities to be utilized by clients as needed.

By concentrating on the fields that a person stands out at and beginning with circumstances, we can develop higher worth for the market. In March 2022, Huawei established a devoted group for the power market– the Electric Power Digitalization BU. Its service scope covers R&D, marketing, sales, service, and community building and construction. Intending to develop a bridge in between crucial power circumstance requirements and digital innovations, the BU is dedicated to combine digital and smart interaction innovations to the ideal circumstances.

As we understand, the core obstacle dealing with brand-new power systems depends on the power circulation network. In addition to enhancing power supply dependability and lowering line loss, future power systems likewise require to handle difficulties brought by brand-new energy and brand-new loads. In China, we dealt with our partners to assist State Grid Shaanxi construct the Smart Distribution Solution (IDS).

We assisted State Grid Shaanxi develop a digital power circulation structure including “cloud-pipe-edge-pipe-device” synergy, which allowed the business to develop from the single-point digitalization of transformer districts and power circulation spaces to architecture-supported, evolvable, open, and organized intelligence.

4 crucial innovations were released in the digital structure.

• The edge computing system (ECU) incorporated several terminals in the transformer district and now operates as the wise brain of the edge. Dealing with cloud-edge synergy, the ECU makes it possible for edge gadgets to be rapidly updated online. The app shop and cloud orchestration carried out the versatile implementation of numerous services at the edge. Various policies can be specified at each transformer district for versatile district autonomy. Through this, transformer district supervisors have actually ended up being imaginative mini CEOs.
• Second, fiber optics and cordless networks were released for backhaul. Developing an extremely trusted circulation backhaul interaction network can be a substantial difficulty. Our company believe that the cordless personal network is the optimum option when cordless spectrum resources are offered. Fiber optics can be released in cities and essential locations to support the real-time gain access to of numerous services. In wide-coverage locations, interaction backhaul can be carried out through provider public networks or cordless personal networks.
• The 3rd was high-speed power line provider interaction (HPLC) dual-mode innovation, which resolved the issue of last-mile interaction. HPLC can provide 99.9% interaction dependability, which supports minute-level information collection and second-level control for low-voltage openness. It was the service of option to attain an observable, quantifiable, adjustable, manageable and traceable low-voltage side.
• The 4th was the cloud-based unified business digital platform, which now serves as the wise OS. By developing the enterprise-level unified information structure, merged AI design factory, and combined IoT platform, State Grid Shaanxi can collect important knowledge possessions.

Huawei likewise assists consumers develop an open environment. We are devoted to removing market barriers and making market and cross-industry digital abilities readily available to all market gamers through combination and development.

At the Electric Power Digitalization BU, we aim to empower electrical power professionals with digital proficiency and assistance consumers construct methodical digital abilities for sustainable advancement.

Based upon the digital structure and the open community, State Grid Shaanxi executed topological recognition for the transformer, meter box and family meters at the low-voltage side.

In blind tests, the precision reached 100%, the day-to-day frozen information collection success rate reached 99.98%, irregular occasions were reported within one 2nd, and power blackouts were alerted within 3 minutes.

The option can likewise provide 15-minute transformer district line loss computation and analysis, and supports 0.4 kV dispersed PV group control and management along with organized charging. The client’s operation design has actually altered from passive reaction to proactive service.

The variety of yearly passive work orders has actually been lowered by 35%, enhancing user complete satisfaction.

In addition to power circulation, we likewise provide smart power generation, transmission, and change services.

Huawei will continue to concentrate on the arenas of interactions, digitalization, and AI that we master. In other locations such as applications, information, hardware, and combination services, Huawei will coordinate with market business and environment partners to collectively resolve issues and develop worth.

More than 24 years of experience in the ICT market. Mr. Sun has more than 20 years of experience in the ICT market. He signed up with Huawei in 1998, and has actually handled different functions throughout his time with the business, consisting of President of the Southeast Asia Region, President of the Global Marketing and Solution Sales Dept of Carrier Network BG, Deputy Chief of Huawei Strategic Reserves, and Vice President (accountable for innovation) of Enterprise BG ， President of EBG Global Energy Business Unit. Member of Huawei’s improvement steering committee, member of the Standing Committee of the 11th Council of the China Electrical Engineering Society (CSEE), and director of the CEIA Energy Digitalization Profession Committee.
