en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, Shenzhen Air Boss Energy-Saving Technology Co., Ltd. (Air Boss) and Shenzhen Inovance Technology Co., Ltd. (Inovance Technology) signed a strategic cooperation agreement. Based on a high degree of consensus on "asset lightening and intelligent operation" of air compressor stations, the two parties will upgrade their cooperation from project pilots to comprehensive strategic synergy, jointly promoting digital operations in the industrial compressed air field.
Wang Qichang, Chairman of Air Boss, Liu Jianqiang, General Manager of Air Boss, Yan Xiaohui, Marketing Director of Inovance Technology's Digital Business Unit, and Lu Jianxin, General Manager of the South China Theater, attended the signing ceremony.
Driven by the dual goals of "carbon peak and carbon neutrality" and the digital transformation of manufacturing, industrial energy management is accelerating towards intelligence, efficiency, and low carbon. As a utility system with a relatively high energy consumption share in production and manufacturing, air compressor stations have long faced common challenges such as large energy efficiency fluctuations, lack of global optimization in multi-unit coordination, reliance on manual maintenance, fragmented equipment status perception, and difficulty in implementing predictive maintenance due to the disconnect between OT and IT data.
To address the above industry pain points, the two parties jointly developed a centrifugal digital air compressor station AI intelligent control system based on the "Inovance Intelligent Control + Air Boss BOO Operation" model. Built on the Inovance InoCube platform, this system provides full-stack computing power scheduling from edge intelligent control to cloud-edge-device collaboration. By performing ontology modeling of physical entities such as compressors, refrigerated dryers, filters, and pipelines, it constructs a multi-dimensional knowledge graph linking "equipment-process-energy efficiency," achieving an end-to-end intelligent closed loop of "perception-decision-execution" based on IT/OT integration. After multiple rounds of solution discussions and on-site POC verification, the solution gained recognition from senior management of end customers. Currently, the two parties have successfully implemented multiple benchmark centrifugal air compressor station intelligent control projects in customer group parks, achieving significant energy savings and operational efficiency improvements. This model can provide downstream manufacturing enterprises with a replicable "light asset, low carbon emission" solution.
Yan Xiaohui, Marketing Director of Inovance Technology, stated that Inovance has been deeply involved in the field of industrial energy digitization for many years. Its self-developed "Digital Air Compressor Station AI Intelligent Control System" has been deployed for multiple customers across many regions in China, with the "Centrifugal Air Compressor Station AI Intelligent Control Solution" covering high-end manufacturing sectors such as electronics, semiconductors, and new energy. This cooperation marks a new starting point for strategic synergy between the two parties. In the future, Inovance will leverage its core advantages in intelligent control, AI-native application development platforms, and air compressor agents to collaborate with Air Boss, extending the BOO asset operation model from the consumer electronics industry to more fields.
Wang Qichang, Chairman of Air Boss, stated that this strategic cooperation is a key step for Air Boss in transitioning from equipment operation to smart energy services. Air Boss is responsible for air compressor equipment manufacturing, asset investment, and operation of air compressor stations, while Inovance provides automation core components, AI algorithms, and platforms. The two parties will jointly promote the large-scale replication of the integrated "smart hardware + AI algorithm + BOO operation" solution within the industry. At the same time, they will explore the value of Air Boss's existing operation platform and data, jointly building an air compressor agent and an AI-native digital air compressor station platform based on Inovance's AI-native development platform, accelerating light-asset operations and green digital transformation in manufacturing.
Both parties stated that in the future, they will focus on AI, data, and the BOO operation model to promote the "zero investment, pay-per-use" compressed air service model, drive the intelligent upgrade of industrial energy management, and facilitate the light-asset and green low-carbon transformation of the manufacturing industry.
