As we all know, the mainland strives to achieve "carbon peak" by 2030 and "carbon neutrality" by 2060, which requires extensive and profound economic and social systemic changes, and the green and low-carbon development of energy is the key to it.
In fact, as the main battlefield and main front for promoting the green and low-carbon development of energy, the transformation and upgrading of the energy industry is an important path and an inevitable choice to achieve the goal of "double carbon", especially in the current new round of scientific and technological revolution and the wave of industrial change, digital industrialization and industrial digitalization are the general trend. Therefore, boosting the green and low-carbon development of the energy industry through digital transformation is undoubtedly a new task and new requirement for the future transformation and upgrading of the energy industry under the "double carbon" goal.
It can be seen that on April 2 this year, in the "14th Five-Year Plan for Scientific and Technological Innovation in the Energy Field" issued by the state, it was clearly stated: "It is necessary to accelerate the digital upgrading of the power system and the iterative development of the construction of the new power system, and comprehensively promote the innovation of the application and operation mode of the new power technology; take the grid as the platform to enhance the optimal allocation of power system resources and enhance the intelligent level of the power grid; at the same time, we must increase efforts to plan and build a large-scale wind and photovoltaic base, supported by clean, efficient, and advanced energy-saving coal power around it. A new energy supply and consumption system with stable, safe and reliable UHV transmission and transformation lines as the carrier. In addition, we will build an intelligent and efficient dispatching and operation system, explore joint dispatching mechanisms for various energy sources such as electricity, heat, and natural gas, and promote coordinated operation. Take the user as the center, strengthen the two-way interaction between supply and demand, and actively promote the integrated development of the source network and the load and storage. ”
Deng Dongxu, Vice President of Systems china
In this context, with its own core technical advantages of security and controllability and the digital and information service full-stack business system of "cloud + digital + intelligence + solution" built, China System can provide a package of energy cloud solutions from independent controllability, digital transformation business, management consulting, application development and implementation of the energy industry to the planning and construction of cloud data centers, which can be said to provide a solid support for the transformation and development of digitalization in the energy industry.
As Deng Dongxu, Vice President of China Systems, said: "In the next five to ten years, all energy companies will face the challenge of spiraling transformation by combining digitalization and localization, as the representative enterprise of China Electronics in the energy industry, China System hopes to promote the digital transformation of the entire energy industry through digitalization and xinchuang technology, and help the energy sector achieve carbon peaking and carbon neutrality." ”
Four transformational trends in the energy industry
Objectively speaking, the digital transformation of the energy industry has made rapid progress in the past few years, from the construction of smart grids, digital power plant transformation, intelligent coal mining and other energy digital projects, to the "digital China Petroleum", "data + platform + application", "power grid digital platform" and other planning and deployment, the entire energy industry has made significant breakthroughs in the degree of digitalization. However, it should also be noted that in the context of the new environment and new requirements, for the energy industry with complex information systems, lengthy business processes and complex personnel structure, the journey towards digitalization still faces many challenges, specifically:
First, cloud upgrading. Today, it is the consensus of the industry that enterprises go to the cloud, and the energy industry is no exception. However, the energy industry, which is dominated by large or group enterprises, faces many pain points in the process of going to the cloud, especially the management of some virtualized resource pools in the existing infrastructure; the business system deployed by hybrid physical machines and special models; the lack of PaaS functions in the cloud environment; and the lack of automated operation and maintenance tools.
Second, data silos. Because energy is an important strategic resource of the country, coupled with the technical and physical characteristics of the energy industry itself, data sharing faces multiple challenges, and the problem of data islands is prominent, which is mainly reflected in the non-uniformity of data standards due to historical problems; data quality needs to be improved; data integration and mining capabilities need to be improved; not only that, the digital transformation of the energy industry under the "double carbon" goal also involves the data of various subdivisions in the energy industry, such as the synergy of energy and environment, ecology, carbon emission reduction and many other data. Therefore, it is also difficult to openly share data across departments.
Third, it is autonomous and controllable. The energy industry is a basic industry for people's livelihood, and once its critical infrastructure is leaked and equipment is attacked, it may threaten the national economy, so security risks are everywhere. From this point of view, in the future, the energy industry will accelerate the completion of all localization adaptation and security reinforcement from hardware to software, and realize the "independent controllability" of products and solutions.
Fourth, the standard system. It can be seen that since the energy industry is a group enterprise, there are many subsidiary units and diverse needs; in addition, in the actual planning, construction and operation process, the main units are different and the standards are different, so the future energy industry must not only establish a standard system, but also need to strengthen the formulation of top-level planning, so as to better promote the digital transformation of the entire energy industry.
It can be seen that under the changes in the external environment and the goal of the "double carbon" policy, the urgency and importance of digital transformation in the energy industry have increased significantly, and the deep integration of digital innovation and energy in the future is not only the trend of the times, but also "imminent".
Innovation and practice "never stop"
It is also the insight into this new change, China's system in the energy industry digital innovation and practice "never stops", through continuous investment in the construction of R & D innovation system, and constantly create a "hard-core" energy cloud solution, while focusing on the energy industry customer needs of continuous innovation, China system has helped a large number of energy industry customers to achieve digital transformation upgrade and practice, for the future of energy enterprises digital transformation really provide more reference and reference of new value.
First of all, in terms of energy enterprises on the cloud, China's system relies on China's electronic cloud to create an exclusive cloud platform solution for a large oil and gas central enterprise group, and completed the exclusive cloud delivery in 15 days, which not only provides pooled computing, storage, network and security resources for the group's business system, but also meets the on-line requirements of batch unified and self-built business systems by providing comprehensive cloud platform resources; at the same time, in terms of security, China Electronic Cloud also provides security resource pools and network isolation protection between regions. The safe operation of the business system is guaranteed to the greatest extent, and the flexible network access realizes the comprehensive and secure access of the group and branches to the cloud platform.
At present, the group's cloud platform has been operating stably since its launch, and has carried almost all of the nearly 80 sets of key business systems, fully connected with the pipe network and security system, and provided nearly 1,000 cloud hosts and 1PB of various storage resources, fully meeting the group's needs for cloud platform security and resources.
Not only that, China Electronic Cloud also won the bid for a large power grid central enterprise dispatch cloud YN node. It is understood that the YN standby node, as the remote disaster recovery center of the "two places and three centers" of the dispatching cloud, together with the master node and the same city backup node, constitutes a dispatching cloud, on the one hand, to achieve critical service and data disaster recovery on the master node and the same city backup node; on the other hand, it can provide scheduling cloud resource services for some services to the cloud as needed. Based on this, the YN node CECSTACK full-stack cloud platform built by China ECloud fully meets the needs of customers for "data-level disaster recovery", "rapid switching of main and standby platform functions" and "unified management of preparation nodes".
Secondly, in terms of data innovation, China System has also built a data platform project for a power generation group. Previously, due to the multi-copy model of the group's data storage, the backup data accounted for a relatively large proportion, and the proportion of unstructured data was as high as 55%, resulting in a low value density of stored data, not all existing data resources can be effectively converted into data assets, and a large amount of data is still sleeping and undeveloped.
To this end, China Electronic Cloud has helped the group to carry out the three key tasks of "1 planning, 1 platform, and N applications", laying out the big data base for customers, building a large-scale data asset platform and deepening the application of big data. Specifically, China eCloud has adopted new data processing tools and data management specifications to extract more data assets from existing data volumes and further unlock the value of data. In addition, for group companies, unified management of data assets, shared services, real-time query, big data analysis, data asset operation and monitoring services are realized. According to the data, the first phase of the project has been connected to 156 systems, 6950 data tables have been built, the total data volume under the data standard specification is 180 TB, and the average daily service call for N applications is more than 500,000 times.
Third, in terms of independent controllability, the Electric Power Research Institute of a power generation group has also cooperated with China Electronic Cloud and Guodian Nanzi huadun Company to develop the first industry-level independent controllable gas turbine intelligent operation and maintenance cloud platform in China, which not only fills the industry gap, but also inserts wisdom wings into the operation and maintenance of gas-fired power generation.
The gas turbine intelligent cloud platform adopts the deployment mode of "1+N", of which "1" refers to the gas turbine intelligent cloud platform (cloud system), including the group side and the industry side; "N" refers to the factory-level gas turbine intelligent cloud platform (edge system), including the production side and management side. At present, the gas turbine intelligent operation and maintenance cloud platform completes the construction of three-level functions on the industry side, the group side and the power plant side, realizes the three major formats of capacity co-construction, resource sharing and empowerment and win-win on the industry side, promotes the construction of a digital ecosystem system of open sharing and win-win cooperation, and practices the development concept of "digital industrialization and industrial digitalization"; builds four major centers for decision-making, supervision, expert support and service on the group side, and builds intelligent decision-making, intelligent supervision, operation optimization, performance analysis, early warning diagnosis, combustion adjustment, Nine major business applications, such as component life management and optimization and maintenance, have basically formed a gas turbine intelligent operation and maintenance technology system supported by more than 30 patents. It is worth mentioning that the gas turbine intelligent operation and maintenance platform adopts a unique deployment architecture of "cloud-edge collaboration and operation and pipe separation", which has been piloted and applied within Huadian Group, of which the power plant side function has been applied in 6 power generation enterprises, which has produced good results.
Deng Dongxu said that the gas turbine intelligent operation and maintenance cloud platform is the first full-stack vertical localization system deployment application of China Electronic Cloud, from chips, servers, operating systems to cloud platforms, data middle platforms, AI middle platforms to application joint development, to achieve full-stack localization, and in the future, China Electronics Cloud also hopes to create several more vertical business areas similar to the gas turbine operation and maintenance cloud platform such as top-to-bottom integrated independent controllable solutions, combining industry knowledge and experience with digital and localization technologies. Helping the entire energy industry generate more and greater value.
Finally, in terms of digital consulting, China System has delivered the 14th Five-Year Plan for two power generation groups, provided consultation on the system and mechanism of scientific and technological innovation for an oil and gas group, and submitted a "three new" consultation report on digital transformation and a research report on a highly resilient power grid for a power grid enterprise.
In fact, the above-mentioned landing and practice cases are only a "microcosm" of the Chinese system empowering customers in the field of energy digitalization, and the reason why many customers in the energy industry choose the Chinese system is inseparable from the recognition and affirmation of the comprehensive service capabilities precipitated by the Chinese system in the exploration and practice of the energy field in the past few years, so the greater space and imagination in the digital transformation of the energy industry in the future are also waiting for the Chinese system to redefine, re-innovate and expand.
Build a digital base with hard power
Looking back, the Chinese system in the energy industry can transform the actual "pain points" of many customers into more specific landing practices, which is also directly related to the strength of the Chinese system in the energy industry that has accumulated "hard-core" digital solutions for many years, and can be observed from several dimensions:
First, in terms of technology and solution innovation, China's system focuses on "cloud computing and storage + data innovation + digital government and industry digital transformation", creating a Chinese electronic cloud native to PKS, which is the China Electronic Information Industry Group's multi-party cloud service capabilities based on the PKS system, which can build a robust digital economic infrastructure for public services and large group enterprises; and the data innovation business creates a variety of data products that can help enterprises open up multiple functional departments, integrate data integration, data governance, Data services and data applications, the construction of full-link data innovation solutions, to help enterprises better release data dividends, in addition, China's system has also penetrated into specific industry application scenarios, especially through in-depth cooperation with customers in the energy field, but also created an energy cloud solution for the future digital transformation of energy.
In this regard, Deng Dongxu said: "The reason why we can quickly build a new digital and information service full business system, on the one hand, the Chinese system, especially the Chinese electronic cloud has always maintained a high intensity of R & D investment, at present we have a research and development team of nearly a thousand people, every year to invest a lot of money to carry out the research and development of new technologies; on the other hand, the Chinese system has also attracted a lot of first-class talents in the industry, especially in the cloud, many of our technical backbones and experts belong to the third time to do the cloud. Therefore, the construction of China's e-cloud architecture is containerized and cloud-native from the beginning, and this forward-looking architecture also determines that China's e-cloud has the advantage of being a latecomer in the market. ”
Second, in terms of security and independent innovation, The Chinese system can also rely on its own core technical advantages that are safe and controllable, and can also support enterprises to accelerate the process of independent innovation, and help enterprises build a safe and credible information technology system. In Deng Dongxu's view: "Energy companies attach great importance to the overall operation safety, so the Chinese system must ensure the safe, stable and reliable operation of these energy companies, and at present, based on the localization of independent and controllable equipment and technology, the Chinese system has the ability and confidence to help energy companies better achieve safety and control and independent innovation in the future." ”
Third, in terms of consulting and service capabilities, in view of the current challenges facing the digitalization of the energy industry, China System can not only provide energy cloud solutions, but also provide the "methodology" of digital consulting that has been verified and tested by the market, and truly build a solid innovation cornerstone for the digital transformation of energy enterprises in the form of "one-stop" services.
"China System currently has a lot of industry consultants in the energy industry, these industry consultants are very senior experts in the energy industry, many of whom have more than a decade of experience in the field of oil and power industry. Earlier, we talked to a customer, and he said that he had finally found the right person, because there was a team that really understood what they were really thinking, and at the same time could help them map out how to build a digital platform in the future, and it can be said that knowing how to know the energy industry is where our differentiated advantages lie in the digital transformation of energy. Deng Dongxu said.
Facing the future, Deng Dongxu finally stressed: "As a company that provides comprehensive digital solutions for large enterprises and group enterprises, China System has built a comprehensive ability through in-depth cooperation with customers in the energy industry in the past few years, especially in the future to face a new external environment and solve the future energy field." The Chinese system must shoulder more responsibilities and responsibilities in this process, so we will continue to increase investment in technology, continue to enrich the industry's landing practice, and ultimately hope to provide more value for the digital transformation of the entire energy industry. ”
The full text summarizes that China, as the world's largest energy country, the development level of the energy industry is of great significance to the national economy, and in the past few years, with the continuous increase of the mainland's "double carbon" policy, the digital transformation of the energy industry has been "urgent", and the Chinese system through the "hard-core" solution strength, rich landing and practical experience and strong digital consulting capabilities, I believe that in energy conservation and environmental protection, new energy, new energy storage, distributed energy, independent innovation, Areas such as smart O&M help the energy industry accelerate the pace of digital transformation and promote the high-quality development of the entire Chinese energy industry.
