Sungrow Shares 10 Major Technological Trends in Renewable Energy Industry

Published

on

SHANGHAI, June 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Sungrow, the global leading PV inverter and energy storage system provider, shared 10 major technological trends at the recent Ph.D Talk event in Shanghai. With an investment of 2.45 billion yuan (approximately 347 million) in R&D throughout 2023, the company stands at the forefront of technological innovation. Embracing their brand-new tagline “Bridge to a Sustainable Future”, Sungrow is dedicated to bridging the gap and making clean energy accessible to everyone.

Ph.D. Xu Jun, Vice President of Sungrow Research Center, highlighted 10 Major Technological Trends at Ph.D. Talk:

The Application of New Semiconductor Devices
To achieve net-zero carbon emissions, advancements in energy generation, transmission, and conversion efficiency are crucial. According to Diamfab, diamond has the potential to become the ultimate WBG semiconductor material for high-power electronics. Diamond possesses ideal characteristics for high-voltage operation, high-temperature applications, and high-frequency switching, with a critical electric field 30 times higher than Si and 3 times higher than SiC.

The Extended Utilization of Solid-State Transformer (SST) Technology and Medium-Voltage Photovoltaic (PV) Inverters
The medium-voltage PV power generation system based on SST technology offers a higher power density compared to traditional solutions, with an overall improvement in conversion efficiency. In the future, SST technology may find applications in MW-level charging stations, HVDC power supply systems for data centers, energy routers, and more. Notably, Sungrow developed the world’s first 35kV SST-based PV inverter in 2022.

Further Enhancement of Direct Current (DC) Voltage Level in PV Systems
The increase of DC voltage in PV systems not only increases power density and efficiency but also reduces infrastructure and maintenance costs. Notably, Sungrow achieved a groundbreaking milestone by becoming the world’s first company to introduce the 2000V solar-plus-storage high-voltage system and successfully integrating it into the grid in Yulin, Shaanxi.

Improving the Overall Lifecycle Efficiency of PV Power Plants through Digitization and AI
Sungrow has introduced the concept of DEPCO (Development, Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Operation), bringing about comprehensive digitization to renewable energy power plants. The company has developed cutting-edge software solutions, namely iSolarTool for optimizing the design of large-scale PV power plants, and iSolarBP for commercial and industrial PV assessment and design. By leveraging AI intelligence, these innovative tools enable end-to-end system optimization, effectively boosting the efficiency and profitability of renewable energy development. Currently, these solutions are in the industry trial phase.

“PE Agent,” a Power Electronic Designer Based on Large Language Model (LLM)
During the energy transition, AI intelligence will play an increasingly significant role. PE Agent  can facilitate seamless communication between AI and AI, as well as between AI and humans, enabling intelligent management of the entire process of power electronics design and achieving “self-learning” and “self-evolution.”

High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Technology
HVDC systems provide faster active power flow control compared to the more established CSC-HVDC technology. Additionally, they offer flexible and enhanced reactive power controllability at both converter terminals.

Source-Grid-Load-Storage Integration: Driving the Rapid Development of Energy Bases and Future Urban Construction
The construction strategy for the source-grid-load-storage operation mode in renewable energy integration can leverage multiple energy sources, enhance grid capacity for renewable energy integration and economic efficiency of active distribution grid operations.

Grid-Forming (GFM) Technology
GFM technology provide rapid, accurate, and standardized dynamic responses to grid faults and disturbances. It offers strong support for the stable operation of new power systems in various application scenarios.

Virtual Power Plants (VVPs)
VVPs are networks comprising small-scale energy-producing or storage devices, such as solar panels and batteries, that are aggregated to serve the electricity grid. With the consent of their owners, the energy generated by these devices can be accessed by utilities during periods of high demand or saved for future use.

Green Hydrogen
The off-grid solar-hydrogen solution, IGBT-based hydrogen production rectifier power supply, and the integration of hydrogen for complete energy self-sufficiency in residential buildings with PV and battery storage systems can further enhance energy efficiency.

“India has the oldest and most profound culture of storytelling. We learnt everything from storytelling – from the code of conduct to our belief system”: Imtiaz Ali at India Global Forum’s NXT25

Published

MUMBAI, India, April 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Storytelling, cinema, and digital content took the spotlight at ‘Making WAVES – the Culture Forum’ hosted during the India Global Forum’s NXT25: Leading the Leap Summit at the Jio World Convention Centre on April 8. The forum brought together some of India’s most iconic voices across entertainment and media to explore the evolving narrative of India emerging as a global powerhouse for content and digital innovation.

In a Fireside Chat titled, ‘Making WAVES – India as a Global Content Hub’, renowned Director and Writer Imtiaz Ali, said: “As a storyteller, I do not have to worry about what everybody likes. The way to find out the code is by finding what I would like. Since I have been in the film industry, I have been told that formula (movie success) is not working. Thank God for that, because if the formula worked, none of us would be here making movies. We (India) have the oldest and most profound culture of storytelling. We learnt everything from storytelling. Everything has been learnt from stories, from the code of conduct to our belief system.”

Continuing the conversation, Monika Shergill, Vice President – Content, Netflix India, highlighted: “The beautiful confluence of creativity and technology has allowed the creators not to be limited to where they are. The biggest enabler of this trend is a resurgence of hyperlocal. Indian audiences are among the most experiential, diverse, curious, and fantastic audiences. As streamers, storytellers, and creators, we must take advantage of this opportunity.”

This was followed by a conversation with Ekta Kapoor, Joint MD, Balaji Telefilms LTD, on the Intersection of Art, Success & Global Influence. She said, “There are different metrics of success for everyone. At Balaji and I, as content providers, believe success comes in three or four ways: getting the economics right, creating impact, and earning recognition.” On a lighter note, when asked about the upcoming remake of her hit TV show, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Kapoor teased the return of actor and politician Smriti Irani, saying: “We are bringing politics into entertainment or a politician.”

Later, in a Fireside Chat on ‘Inspiring Journeys’, noted actress Fatima Sana Shaikh, opened up about the challenges she faced and said: “This industry has no set rules or frameworks; if it has worked for someone, it doesn’t mean it will work for you. Nothing is permanent, not the highs or lows. We cannot get too attached to fame or failure; work is not our identity.”

Talking about her inspiration, Fatima, said: “I enjoy Kangana’s work. She is an incredible actor. She was one of the first ones to come from the outside and do different movies, like Queen & Tanu Weds Manu.”

Co-hosted with the Ministry of Information & Broadcasting, the Culture Forum also served as a precursor to the upcoming World Audio Visual & Entertainment Summit (WAVES). Speaking on the occasion, Achal Malhotra, CEO, WAVES, National Film Development Corporation Ltd., said: “Most of us have started hearing about WAVES very recently but this was envisioned by our Hon’ Prime Minister way back in 2019. We have done a lot of look and see of the other great shows happening around the world. Therefore, we realised that with technology the way we produce content and the way we are seeing content consumption and also content delivery is changing at a pace we really don’t know what’s going to be the next tool that’s going to come.”

Bringing together CEOs, policymakers, global investors, and industry disruptors, NXT25 explores the biggest trends shaping India’s future on the world stage, spotlighting India’s ambitions for the next 25 years and its emergence as a global powerhouse in investment, technology, sustainability, and innovation.
