Huawei Site Power aims to provide guidance for technology and industry development as well as industry digitisation.
Technology and industry: Top 8 trends of site power Sanjay Kumar Sainani, SVP and CTO of Huawei Global Data Centre Facility Business, outlines eight trends to provide guidelines for the growth and innovation of the energy industry. S EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES, such as 5G, Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) are rapidly commercialised, there is an uptick in digital transformation across various industries. The epidemic and carbon neutrality goals further accelerate the transformation towards a smart society. What does it mean for the site power? What will happen if energy technologies are combined with power electronics technologies and digital technologies? Deep insights into the industry trends help enterprises to better adapt to future challenges. Eight key trends can guide technology and industry development, and industry digitisation, help build a greener and betterconnected world, and bridge the energy divide.
A
Trend 1: Power digitalisation The full power link from power generation,
conversion, storage, to load will be digitalised. The entire energy network will change from the traditional watt flow to watt+bit collaboration, driving the digital transformation of site power from points, chains, and networks with the concept of Bits Manage Watt or (Bit Manages Watt). The convergence of digital technologies and energy technologies will make energy networks more visible, manageable, controllable, and optimisable.
reconstruction and optimisation, digital O&M and energy efficiency management, and zerocarbon evaluation, a zerocarbon network will be realised through the integration of power electronics, digital, and AI technologies. Carbon emissions of networks will also be cleared through simplified network construction, intelligent O&M, and fulllifecycle management of energy networks.
Trend 3: Lithium for all Trend 2: "ZeroCarbon" network Green and sustainable development is a global campaign. Clean energy application and energy saving have become mainstream around the world. In the future, the full link of power generation, load consumption, and power conversion and storage will be green, efficient, and energysaving. From the toplevel network planning and design, construction and capacity expansion, to the

Lithium batteries will gradually replace lead acid batteries in largescale applications in various industries around the world. After the power electronics and digital technologies are combined, the local BMS and cloud BMS will collaborate. With the help of AI and big data technologies, standard lithium batteries will become intelligent and cloudbased. From a single component to a cloudbased smart energy www.technicalreview.me
