Serving as an inclusive power supply in all scenarios, the solutions provide cost-effective, green, and reliable power for people's livelihood and industrial production in off-grid and unreliable grid areas, helping bridge the energy divide.
Mr. Peng said electricity supplies are unbalanced around the world. Currently, about 800 million people are living in mountainous areas, islands, deserts, and other regions that have no access to grid power. In these regions, a huge number of diesel generators (D.G.s) are used for power generation. There are more than 50 million D.G.s worldwide. D.G. cost is several times higher than that of the grid power, and D.G.s are highly polluting. 1 kg diesel fuel will generate 3.18 kg carbon emissions.
Solar off-grid solution
In addition, D.G.s are costly, difficult to maintain, and noisy, which seriously affects the normal life of residents and restricts the local economic development. With advances in technologies, the cost of photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage decreases. Replacing D.G.s with solar energy to achieve low-cost and green inclusive power supply becomes a reality.

Full series of comprehensive off-grid fuel removal power solution iPowerCube provide green and inclusive power supply in all scenarios of people's livelihood and industrial production.
Large-scale off-grid fuel removal solution iPowerCube-P
Provides megawatt-level power supply capability and applies to industrial production scenarios such as mines, factories, and campuses, as well as livelihood scenarios such as large villages, islands, and resorts. Compared with the traditional AC coupling solution, the iPowerCube-P uses the DC coupling architecture, which reduces the number of energy conversion times, improves the efficiency, reduces the investment, and lowers the LCOE.
Medium-scale off-grid fuel removal solution iPowerCube-S
Provides 100 kW-level power supply capability and applies to livelihood scenarios such as small villages and islands as well as industrial production scenarios such as oil and gas wells, checkpoints, and transportation stations. Compared with the traditional split-type solution, Huawei iPowerCube-S adopts pre-integration and does not require distribution network reconstruction, which shortens the deployment period and reduces the investment.
Huawei Digital Power Technologies
In Zhuhai, Huawei iPowerCube-S solution is used to replace the original D.G. and supply power to the professional equipment and living facilities of the ship navigation station on the island. In this way, the D.G. is not required. The LCOE is reduced by 60%, the D.G.-related cost is cut by CNY220,000 each year, and 25 tons of carbon emissions are avoided.
Small-scale off-grid fuel removal solution iPowerCube-M
Provides 10 kWlevel power supply capability and applies to residential scenarios (such as apartments with no/poor mains power supply and rural villas) and industrial and commercial scenarios (such as shops, restaurants, and business outlets). Compared with the traditional solution with combined gasoline generator and batteries, Huawei iPowerCubeM solution features more flexible deployment, ultraquiet design, higher reliability, and lower LCOE.
