In recent years, the installed capacity of new energy sources such as photovoltaics and wind power has grown rapidly, and the development and application of non-fossil energy are steadily gaining momentum. To maintain grid balance and stability while boosting the integration of renewable energy, various types of virtual power plants have emerged swiftly across China. As a unique type of power plant, virtual power plants serve as a coordinated management system that seamlessly integrates into electricity markets and grid operations. They can function both as "positive power plants," reducing electricity consumption to help ease peak demand on the grid, and as "negative power plants," increasing consumption to fill valleys in electricity usage. Capable of responding swiftly to grid signals, virtual power plants not only help stabilize the power system and earn financial incentives but also enable participation in diverse electricity market activities—such as capacity trading, spot markets, and ancillary services—thereby unlocking significant economic benefits.

Supporting the nation’s carbon peak and carbon neutrality strategies, we are building a distributed, digitalized platform for new energy solutions. Leveraging technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, blockchain, and mobile internet, we’re developing a comprehensive information management service platform for all new-energy assets. This initiative aims to transform distributed photovoltaic power stations into highly efficient, digitally connected, and intelligent operations—ultimately enhancing the sustainable power-generation revenues for both new-energy service providers and power station owners.

As the global energy landscape undergoes a transformative shift, energy efficiency power plants are becoming critical to energy conservation and emission reduction. The integration of technologies such as smart grids, big data, and cloud computing enables these plants to more accurately forecast and manage electricity demand, optimizing the allocation of power resources. Meanwhile, the opening up of electricity markets creates vast opportunities for innovative service offerings. Additionally, supportive policies encouraging the use of clean energy are further boosting the growth of energy efficiency power plants.

As technology continues to advance, smart energy safety systems have become an indispensable part of everyday life. Integrating cutting-edge technologies such as intelligent sensing, remote control, and data monitoring, these systems effectively prevent electrical fires, appliance malfunctions, and energy waste—issues that can pose significant risks. Widely adopted in banks, schools, and other high-traffic areas, they deliver a more convenient, secure, and energy-efficient electricity experience for users.

Responding to the demands of future-oriented new networks and services, operators are building a network middleware platform with the goals of "data sharing, service openness, agile iteration, and rapid support." This initiative aims to establish core capabilities for network operations and maintenance, enabling the agile and swift implementation of N comprehensive applications based on the network middleware platform.

To support the achievement of the "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" goals, we are promoting the green and high-quality development of new infrastructure such as 5G base stations and data centers. By replacing low-efficiency equipment, optimizing airflow management, and upgrading energy-saving technologies, we aim to help operators reduce energy consumption and costs, further driving the "energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and secure" evolution of data center and base station operations.
