"Science and technology" and "scientific and technological innovation" have been mentioned many times in this year's government work report. The government work report shows that China's innovation-driven development capabilities continued to improve last year; relying on innovation led industrial upgrading and enhanced new momentum for urban and rural regional development. This year, we must promote self-reliance and self-reliance in high-level science and technology. The primary task of the government is to vigorously promote the construction of a modern industrial system and accelerate the development of new productive forces.

Scientific and technological innovation is the fundamental driving force for the development of new productive forces, and it is also a magic weapon to promote the high-end, intelligent and green transformation of traditional industries.

According to data from the National Energy Administration, as of the end of June 2023, China's installed photovoltaic power generation capacity was 470 million kilowatts, ranking first in the world for eight consecutive years. The International Energy Agency released a relevant report in July 2023 stating that the world's top ten photovoltaic equipment manufacturers are all in China.

Scientific and technological innovation has increased the export of the "Three New Things" by nearly 30%. It has not only created a "Made in China" photovoltaic brand with international influence, but with the rapid development of China's photovoltaic industry, it can be seen on the plateau, in the desert, and at sea. Photovoltaic products can be seen. It is the breakthrough in core technologies that has allowed China's photovoltaic products to enter a larger market and become an important force in the transformation of world energy development and response to climate change.

2024 is a critical year for achieving the goals and tasks of the "14th Five-Year Plan". While affirming our achievements, we must also be clearly aware of the difficulties and challenges we face.

Although photovoltaics are an important component of the new power system, with the continuous advancement of related infrastructure, problems such as grid connection, consumption, and security of new energy still urgently require technological breakthroughs.

Integrate into the current of industrial innovation

During the two sessions this year, some representatives pointed out that energy companies, as a highland for the integrated development of innovation chains, industrial chains, capital chains and talent chains, should focus on the primary task of high-quality development, accelerate the development of strategic emerging industries dominated by new energy, and further Strengthen the consciousness and initiative to promote the development of new quality productivity, accelerate the cultivation and formation of new quality productivity, and continuously shape new driving forces and new advantages for development.

To step on the beat of the times, we first need to find the right direction.

In the past ten years, Huawei was the first to bring digital technology to the photovoltaic field, creating the era of "smart photovoltaic power stations". After experiencing the trend towards parity of photovoltaics and wind power, digitalization has become a key technology for new energy. Huawei's intelligent string inverters have become the mainstream of the market, and the proportion of digital power stations has increased from 10% to 80%.

Looking to the future, Hou Jinlong, Huawei director and president of Huawei Digital Energy, pointed out:"We believe that there will be two definite opportunities in the next 20 to 30 years. Carbon neutrality and intelligence will lead human society into the era of ecological civilization development. These include a new energy system with new energy as the main body, a new transportation system with accelerated electrification and integrated energy transportation, and an innovative and intelligent world with artificial intelligence becoming new productivity. Energy, transportation, and information have entered a period of industrial integration and development, creating more commercial value and creating new industrial opportunities. Technological innovation is creating the strongest development momentum for the energy, transportation, and information industries. Huawei is committed to integrating digital technology and power electronics technology, developing clean energy and energy digitalization, promoting the energy revolution, and jointly building a green and better future."

The wave of low-carbon and digital intelligence is driving the market space of hundreds of billions in 2024. Huawei Digital Energy, which is good at building technological advantages with strong investment, has chosen to integrate digital technology and power electronics technology to create a new power system energy infrastructure.,"Three new energy infrastructures" such as new electric travel energy infrastructure and new digital industry energy infrastructure lead the high-quality development of the industry.

Strengthen the deep integration of scientific and technological innovation and industrial innovation

At this stage, we must not only firmly grasp the primary task of high-quality development, but also develop new productive forces according to local conditions.

Zhou Jianjun, president of Huawei Digital Energy China, proposed that Huawei will form a high industrial consensus with partners and leverage technological depth, ecological thickness, talent concentration, and supply resilience to help customers 'commercial success, join partners' commercial success, and achieve industrial commercial success.

Among them, the most efficient implementation method is to match customer needs, focus on root technologies, and collaborate with partners to create scene-based solutions to jointly promote low-carbon and digital-intelligent transformation.

Huawei Digital Energy focuses on clean energy bases, urban park energy systems, green and low-carbon household energy, charging infrastructure, new energy vehicle power, smart computing infrastructure and other fields, and fully embraces AI. Huawei Digital Energy promotes more technology and business scenarios. Integration and accelerate the arrival of a low-carbon and intelligent digital world.

Create a new type of power system energy infrastructure, use AI+ network technology to assist power stations in autonomous driving, and allow new energy to support the stability and reliability of the power grid. Huawei Digital Energy has built an intelligent wind and solar storage generator to realize active voltage construction, reconstructed voltage stability, reconstructed frequency stability, and reconstructed power angle stability, meeting all scenarios of power production, transmission, and consumption, and opening up a new era of "AI+ network construction".

In response to the low-carbon development requirements of Qianhang Baiye Industrial and Commercial Park, an AI+ source, network, load and storage integrated collaborative solution is adopted, with intelligent component controllers, intelligent photovoltaic controllers, intelligent string energy storage, intelligent photovoltaic cloud, and all-liquid cooling charging The low-carbon park source, network, load and storage integrated solution with the core helps low-carbon development of industrial and commercial parks.

To allow new energy vehicles to use new energy electricity, Huawei's all-liquid cooling and super-charging integrated architecture cooperates with the main engine factory to jointly promote the development process of comprehensive high-voltage and comprehensive ultra-fast charging, and help the high-quality coordinated development of electric vehicles and new power systems. At present, Huawei has deployed more than 10,000 fully liquid-cooled overcharges, covering 31 provinces across the country, creating a high-quality charging target network covering intercity charging, dedicated stations, urban public, and residential charging.

From dream to success, from strategy to execution, the above tactics are not empty talk.

In Saudi Arabia, Honghai New City is the world's first gigawatt Grid Forming optical storage power station. The project has achieved 400 MW on-load grid-connected operation and 1.3 gigawatt hours of energy storage independent and stable network construction, supporting 100% new energy green power supply and providing a million people. Cities provide clean electricity. In Jiangsu, the province's first private enterprise integrating light and storage, Xinchengrui Green and Low-Carbon Plant will build an 8 megawatt hour energy storage power station and 1.6 megawatt photovoltaic in the first phase to achieve stable and reliable electricity consumption, reduce direct electricity bills by 24%, and reduce carbon emissions by 620 tons per year to expand the application of green energy solutions such as charging, VPP, and integrated energy management. By the end of 2024, it is expected that Huawei will deploy 100,000 + fully liquid-cooled super/fast chargers in 340+ cities and major highways across the country, and will work together with partners to build a super charging industry ecosystem.

Huawei has been implementing the concept of driving value through innovation and making the market cake bigger.
