On October 23, the 2021 World Internet of Things Expo was grandly opened in Wuxi. With the theme of "Connecting All Things, Leading the Future by Digital", Xu Kunlin, Deputy Secretary of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and Acting Governor, Wang Zhijun, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Hu Guangjie, Vice Governor of Jiangsu Province, Wu Haiyang, Chief Planner of the Ministry of Natural Resources, Zhou Jiye, Vice Chairman of the Jiangsu Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, Chen Jiangang, Secretary General of the Jiangsu Provincial Government, Du Xiaogang, Secretary of the Wuxi Municipal Party Committee, Zhao Jianjun, Acting Mayor of Wuxi, and other leaders attended the event. Zhang Lei, CEO of Envision Technology Group, was invited to deliver a keynote speech.
Zhang Lei, CEO of Envision Technology Group, believes that the two major trends of digital technology and carbon neutrality will be effectively combined - carbon neutrality requires the intelligent support of digital technology, and digital technology will also find sufficient application scenarios in the 100 billion carbon neutral market to achieve growth and development. Driven by the strategy of the national "double carbon" goal, digital technologies represented by the Internet of Things are injecting strong development momentum into carbon-neutral and related industries.
"In the next 30 years, the biggest scenario and the biggest challenge that IoT technology can solve is to become a new grid. Connecting hundreds of millions of power generation terminals and power facilities to help them achieve intelligent real-time dynamic balancing helps us better consume and use renewable energy. Zhang Lei said.
Zhang Lei believes that at this moment, mankind is facing an unprecedented challenge, that is, the climate crisis, and the only way to solve this crisis is to achieve carbon neutrality.
"Carbon neutrality will drive a renewable energy revolution, wind power, photovoltaics, energy storage will become the 'new coal', hydrogen energy and power batteries will become the 'new oil'." Every energy revolution in history will also lead to an industrial revolution. We can see that hydrogen aircraft, electric vehicles, biosynthesis, and energy-saving technologies will become the main forms of the future industrial revolution. It is estimated that in the next 30 years, human society will need 10 trillion yuan of investment per year to promote this industrial revolution. Zhang Lei said.
Zhang Lei believes that in the next 30 years, the Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, and digital twins will promote the revolution of digital technology. The two major trends of digital technology and carbon neutrality will be effectively combined. Carbon neutrality requires the intelligent support of digital technology, and digital technology will also find sufficient application scenarios in the 100 billion carbon neutral market to achieve growth and development.
Envision Technology Group is a leading global green technology company. With the mission of "Solving Challenges for a Sustainable Future for Humanity", Vision is committed to becoming a "Zero Carbon Technology Partner" for businesses, governments and institutions around the world. At present, Envision Intelligence, a subsidiary of Envision Technology Group, has the world's leading AIoT intelligent IoT operating system EnOS, which connects and manages more than 100 million intelligent terminal devices and 300GW of energy assets worldwide. Based on the EnOS Intelligent IoT operating system, Envision Intelligent provides solutions and smart products for smart new energy, smart factory, integrated energy management, smart travel, smart city and other fields, helping companies and governments achieve digital transformation.
Over the past 10 years, Envision Technology Group has not only built new coal, new oil, and new power grids, but also built a wide range of global zero-carbon partnerships to provide end-to-end solutions for the zero-carbon transformation of enterprises and cities.
In September this year, Envision and Wuxi High-tech Zone reached a cooperation, Envision based on EnOS to build the "carbon double control" Ark management platform is not only helping Wuxi High-tech Zone to do a good job in the top-level design of carbon management, but also becoming the "Android operating system" in the field of carbon management, bringing together many enterprises in Wuxi through the Internet of Things platform, and at the same time through the open data interface, encouraging innovative institutions to create new technologies and new applications on the platform, not only for Wuxi's zero-carbon strategy to develop products, but also to contribute to the zero-carbon transformation of China and the world.
Zhang Lei said: "Wuxi has more than 2 million motor vehicles, when they achieve electrification, these more than 2 million electric vehicles if charged at the same time, will need 150 million kilowatts of power, and today Wuxi's maximum power is only about 15 million, which is a 10-fold increase." If these electric vehicles can achieve effective dispatch through the technology of the Internet of Things, they can not only avoid a huge impact on the power grid, but also be able to serve as mobile energy storage, bringing support and balance to the power grid. ”
The Smart Internet of Things will become the "new grid." Zhang Lei believes that in the next 30 years, the biggest scenario and the biggest challenge that Can be solved by Internet of Things technology is to become a new power grid. When fragmented renewables become the new coal, hundreds of millions of terminals are providing fluctuating and decentralized forms of energy. In the field of electricity, with the advent of electric vehicles and deep electrification, demand will become more random and flexible. So there is a need for a new grid, which is the smart Internet of Things, which can connect hundreds of millions of power generation terminals and power consumption facilities, help them achieve intelligent real-time dynamic balancing, and better consume and use renewable energy.
At the same time, Zhang Lei believes that the new energy revolution will drive an industrial revolution, and the zero-carbon industrial park will become a "new infrastructure" in this industrial revolution.
In October this year, Envision landed the world's first zero-carbon industrial park - Ordos "Envision Zero Carbon Industrial Park", and released the world's first "International Zero Carbon Industrial Park Standard" with bureau Veritas, a world-renowned testing and certification organization. In the zero-carbon industrial park, the intelligent Internet of Things, together with wind power photovoltaics, energy storage and hydrogen energy, has built a green, stable and reliable energy system. The zero-carbon industrial park will subvert the traditional industrial value chain from energy production to use, and promote the renewable energy revolution and the green new industrial revolution.
Zhang Lei believes that the zero-carbon industrial park will become an important form of human green industrial revolution, the intelligent Internet of Things provides an important standard and support for the zero-carbon industrial park, thanks to the measurement, monitoring, verification and closed-loop life cycle management of carbon by the intelligent Internet of Things, the long-term zero-carbon industrial park will be truly evidence-based and effectively developed.
