China Smart Grid Execs Detail Roadmap After Wind, Solar Surpass Coal as Top Power Source
Executives from three Chinese smart grid firms, in a Shanghai Stock Exchange-hosted panel, detailed achievements and future directions for China's new-type power grid. They reported wind and solar capacity surpassed thermal power as the largest source, a 45-line UHV backbone grid is largely complete, and AI-driven computing power demand is a key growth driver. The panel forecast that the 15th Five-Year Plan period will see energy storage scaling, computing-power-grid integration, and digitalization as foundational pillars.

China's Smart Grid Leaders Detail Roadmap After 'Computing Power Awakening'
A panel of three Chinese smart grid company executives, hosted by the Shanghai Stock Exchange and China Business Journal, discussed the achievements, drivers, and future directions of China's new-type power grid construction. Key achievements include wind and solar surpassing coal as the largest power source, a 45-line ultra-high voltage backbone grid, and advances in energy storage. The main drivers identified are energy security (strategic foundation), renewable energy integration (current core push), and AI-driven computing power demand (fastest-growing new factor). Executives from Haibo Sichuang, Xinfengguang, and Zhiyang Innovation highlighted specific technologies: AI-integrated energy storage, solid-state transformers, grid-forming inverters, and digital twin platforms. They forecast that the '15th Five-Year Plan' period will see large-scale storage as the foundation, computing-power-grid integration as the key growth pole, and digitalization as the underlying enabler. China's comparative advantage is described as a systemic combination of large-scale manufacturing, complete supply chains, diverse application scenarios, and engineering capabilities.

In a roundtable organized by the Shanghai Stock Exchange and China Business Journal, executives from three科创板-listed smart grid firms—Haibo Sichuang (688411.SH), Xinfengguang (688663.SH), and Zhiyang Innovation (688191.SH)—discussed the achievements, drivers, and future directions of China's new power grid construction. They highlighted that during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, wind and solar combined capacity surpassed thermal power for the first time, and a 45-line ultra-high-voltage backbone grid was largely completed. Key drivers identified include the 'dual carbon' target for renewable integration, AI-driven compute power demand, and energy security strategy. Haibo's Zhang Jianhui noted that AI is deeply integrated into energy storage lifecycles, while Xinfengguang's Hu Shunquan said grid-forming technology will become standard within 3-5 years. Zhiyang's Nie Shugang emphasized that digitalization, energy storage, and compute-power integration are the three pillars of future grid development. The executives agreed China's comparative advantage lies in its combination of manufacturing scale, complete industrial chain, diverse application scenarios, and engineering capabilities.

Smart Grid Leaders Detail Roadmap After 'Compute Power Awakening' with AI, Storage, and Digitalization
In a roundtable organized by the Shanghai Stock Exchange and China Business Journal, executives from three科创板-listed smart grid firms—Haibo Sichuang (688411.SH), Xinfengguang (688663.SH), and Zhiyang Innovation (688191.SH)—discussed the achievements, drivers, and future directions of China's new-type power grid. They highlighted that wind and solar capacity has surpassed thermal power as the largest power source, and a backbone of 45 ultra-high-voltage (UHV) lines now spans over 60,000 km. Key drivers include the 'dual carbon' goal, AI-driven compute power demand, and energy security. Haibo's Zhang Jianhui noted an 8-fold increase in energy density for storage containers and AI integration across the storage lifecycle. Xinfengguang's Hu Shunquan said SVG units have won national manufacturing champion awards, and that grid-forming technology will become standard within 3-5 years. Zhiyang's Nie Shugang emphasized that digitalization, AI terminals, and digital twin platforms are reshaping grid operations. The executives agreed that China's comparative advantage lies in its integrated manufacturing scale, complete supply chain, and complex application scenarios. They forecast that '15th Five-Year Plan' period will see storage scale-up, compute-power-grid integration, and digitalization as foundational pillars.

An article from East Money, summarizing a panel discussion on China's new power grid sector, features executives from three科创板-listed companies: Haibo Sichuang (Zhang Jianhui), New风光 (Hu Shunquan), and Zhiyang Innovation (Nie Shugang). The discussion, part of the 'Shanghai Stock Exchange Hard Technology' series, outlines achievements during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, including wind and solar surpassing coal as the largest power source and the formation of a UHV backbone grid. Three key drivers are identified: energy security as the strategic foundation, renewable energy integration as the current core driver, and AI computing power demand as the fastest-growing new variable. For the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), the panel forecasts a coordinated pattern with energy storage scaling as the foundation, computing-power-grid integration as the key growth pole, and digitalization as the underlying enabler. Technical directions highlighted include grid-forming technology becoming standard, solid-state transformers, and AI-deepened energy storage lifecycle management. China's comparative advantage is attributed to its combination of scaled manufacturing, complete industrial chain, rich application scenarios, and extreme engineering practice capabilities, with companies moving from product export to comprehensive solution export.
