Huawei Digital Power Helps ASEAN Achieve Zero-Carbon Transformation with High-Quality PV+ESS Grid Forming Solutions

Xia Hesheng, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power and President of Huawei Digital Power Strategy & Marketing Dept

Xia Hesheng, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power and President of Huawei Digital Power Strategy & Marketing Dept, delivered a keynote speech on October 15, titled "Enabling the APG: The Critical Role of Grid-Forming Technology for Cross Border Power Trading." He mentioned that grid interconnection in the ASEAN region and cross-border transmission of renewable energy are key to achieving carbon neutrality. The stable transmission and consumption of electricity for power grids with a high proportion of renewable energy are crucial. With over a decade of commitment, Huawei Digital Power has led the PV+ESS industry from grid following to grid forming. With the technical capabilities of all-scenario grid forming, high reliability, and high safety, Huawei Digital Power has established a high-quality benchmark in the industry. In the world's first GWh-level microgrid project of The Red Sea destination, Saudi Arabia, grid forming technologies power a city that uses 100% green energy. In Cambodia's first 1 GWh grid forming energy storage project, Huawei Digital Power's solution obtained the certification by TÜV SÜD. In the future, Huawei Digital Power will continue to work with customers and partners in ASEAN countries to build a benchmark of energy transformation with advanced grid forming technologies and commitment to high-quality.

On October 16, Chen Xieming, Huawei Global Power Grid Expert, mentioned in the roundtable discussion themed "Strengthening ASEAN Power Grid Resilience" that, unified regional grid standards need to be established to lay a solid foundation for grid safety, promoting ASEAN interconnection. Especially in energy systems with a high proportion of renewables, grid forming technology standards are the key to safeguarding regional grid resilience.

Chong Chern Peng, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power Malaysia Business

Chong Chern Peng, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power Malaysia Business, emphasized Malaysia's strategic position in the ASEAN power grid during the roundtable discussion of "Leaders' Thought Forum" on October 16. As the hub of regional energy interconnection, Malaysia has carried out key energy cooperation with neighboring countries such as Thailand and Singapore through cross-border power transactions. To realize the ASEAN power grid vision, the power grids of each country must be resilient and dynamic. Therefore, grid forming technologies are indispensable. Huawei Digital Power's continuous investment in PV+ESS grid forming is helping build a more resilient power grid system that adapts to the low-carbon renewable future.

In the "CEO & Ministers Dialogue" on October 16, Xia Hesheng pointed out that the key to promoting the prosperity of the energy economy in ASEAN is to build a stable, interconnected, and high-quality power grid system. Facing the challenges brought by large-scale integration of renewable energy, grid forming technologies are essential to enhance power grid stability and build long-term investment confidence. By integrating power generation and energy storage, stable and dispatchable green electricity can be achieved. In addition to expanding revenue channels through premium power purchase agreements, renewable energy can be transformed into a profit pillar of the regional economy. In the meantime, unified regional policies and technical standards will effectively attract high-quality capital, motivate innovation, avoid market fragmentation, and lay a solid foundation for ASEAN's clean energy transformation and sustainable development. Huawei looks forward to working with the ASEAN Centre for Energy and partners to promote the construction of high-quality power grid standards, gather investment forces, and draw a new blueprint of regional energy featuring shared success and prosperity.

ASEAN's green future is rooted in stable and efficient energy. At the AEBF-25, Huawei Digital Power not only showcased its industry-leading grid forming technologies and system-level strength, but also conveyed its commitment to building a green, smart, and sustainable future. Huawei Digital Power will continue to invest heavily in research and development, and deepen cooperation with local partners to jointly promote the transformation of ASEAN's energy mix. We firmly believe that technology is the key to lighting up a zero-carbon world. Huawei Digital Power will be a reliable companion on this journey with robust grid forming technologies.
