IoT technology offers a transformative solution to these challenges. By embedding sensors and smart devices throughout the power grid, IoT enables real-time monitoring and control of the power distribution network. Rising to the challenge, Huawei, in collaboration with State Grid Shaanxi and more than 20 utility partners, have crafted a sophisticated IoT solution for power distribution network management. This solution pivots towards harnessing grid intelligence, optimising power flow, and managing burgeoning data volumes more effectively at the grid’s edge – reducing dependence on centralised control centres.
The solution’s architecture, dubbed ‘cloud-pipe-edge-pipe-device,’ is crafted to lay the digital groundwork for future intelligent networks and serve various power distribution scenarios.
