en.Wedoany.com Reported - • ABB showcases its "AI+Power" solution at the 2025 Shanghai EP Shanghai International Electric Power Expo, aiming to build a more stable, efficient, and resilient power system.
• The "AI+Power" solution drives the continuous evolution of distribution grids, transitioning from "manual dispatch" to "intelligent decision-making," from "passive response" to "active prediction," and from "automatic control" to "autonomous optimization."
In 2026, as the curtain rises on China's 15th Five-Year Plan, the construction of the country's new power system also enters a critical window period for deep advancement. The accelerated transformation of the energy structure is driving wind and solar power towards higher penetration rates, leading to a sharp increase in fluctuations on both the "source" and "load" sides. This poses extreme challenges to grid carrying capacity, real-time balancing, and stability control. Against this backdrop, building a new power system characterized by high elasticity, high intelligence, and ultra-high reliability has evolved from a long-term vision into an urgent strategic necessity for ensuring national energy security.
At the 32nd China International Electric Power Equipment and Technology Exhibition (referred to as the Shanghai International Electric Power Expo) held from November 18th to 20th, ABB, under the theme "Intelligence Ignites Transformation, Racing Towards Zero Carbon," focused on innovative breakthroughs in the three core areas of the new power system: generation, distribution, and consumption. It officially launched its comprehensive "AI+Power" solution. Through the deep integration of technological innovation and practical application scenarios, ABB fully demonstrated its leading capabilities and systematic layout in driving the digital and intelligent transformation of the energy sector, contributing to the construction of a future-oriented new energy system architecture.
New Power System - Building a New Operational Model
Among the showcased core solutions, the series of products aimed at building an "active distribution network" were particularly noteworthy. Among them, the SSC600 platform for power system failure prediction can achieve early prediction of potential faults in the power system, forecasting the risk probability of system failures within the next 7 days, thereby enhancing the proactive safety level of system operation with a prediction accuracy rate of 95%. The embodied intelligent agent, the new generation Edge VD4 circuit breaker, the new generation low-voltage intelligent circuit breaker SACE Emax3+, and the revolutionary solid-state circuit breaker SSCB low-voltage microgrid solution comprehensively support the efficient and stable operation of the distribution grid from the equipment level to the system level.
Green Microgrid - A New Engine for Energy Absorption
Through the green zero-carbon park project of Jiangsu Haihang Electrical Technology Co., Ltd., ABB has set a new benchmark for maximizing the absorption of new energy on the load side. The customized microgrid system provided by ABB, by integrating distributed photovoltaics, energy storage, and intelligent load management, and leveraging AI-driven intelligent collaborative dispatch of "source-grid-load-storage," ensures efficient energy balancing, achieving self-balancing and optimization of energy. This model not only achieves green power substitution and local clean energy absorption rates both exceeding 90%, but also creates a blueprint for park energy transformation that can be widely replicated.
Furthermore, the first-of-its-kind virtual power plant trading platform demonstrates how industrial users can engage in power trading. It integrates core related factors and transaction logic, provides market analysis, clearing analysis, and bidding strategies tailored to application scenarios, and enables accurate load forecasting, autonomous strategy generation, and flexible regulation for virtual power plant operations, thereby improving corporate power trading benefits and activating the potential of load-side virtual power plants.
"AI+Power" - New Momentum for Intelligent Operation
In the field of intelligent operation, ABB presented its digital twin power equipment health model and simulation platform. By constructing a knowledge graph covering the entire equipment lifecycle and a high-fidelity system operation simulation model, this platform has enabled a leap in maintenance modes from passive response to active prediction, leading a profound transformation in power system operation and maintenance.
Luo Hui, Head of ABB's Electrical Distribution Systems Business in China, stated, "Our 'AI+Power' solution possesses three core advantages: 'centralized-edge collaboration, dynamic adaptation, and full lifecycle optimization.' It has been successfully applied in several critical scenarios such as smart substation upgrades and high-proportion renewable energy grid integration, effectively addressing the stability challenges brought by large-scale integration of distributed energy. Looking ahead, we will focus on the core needs of the Chinese market, concentrate on technological innovation, and work hand in hand with customers and partners to jointly build a cleaner, smarter, and more resilient new power system."
During the exhibition, Jiang Ying, Head of Digitalization and Product Marketing for ABB's Electrical Distribution Systems Business in China, delivered a keynote speech titled "Building a Prosumer-Oriented New Power System Distribution Model with 'AI+Power'." She provided an in-depth interpretation of ABB's cutting-edge exploration in integrating grid protection systems with edge intelligent circuit breakers. This solution relies on full electrical quantity acquisition technology to achieve millisecond-level comprehensive perception of electrical quantities. Combined with cloud-edge collaborative AI autonomous operation and maintenance algorithms, it accurately identifies abnormal states in power system operation. Meanwhile, the edge intelligent circuit breaker equipped with high-precision measurement and dynamic regulation capabilities effectively enhances the safety and adaptability of the distribution grid to distributed energy integration, establishing a flexible and reliable new distribution architecture.
