- - Strategic Partnership: CHINT aims to provide flexible, customized solutions optimized for budget and timelines.
Technical Breakthroughs
CHINT has made significant progress in smart grid technologies and digitization, evolving from isolated innovations to systemic empowerment. Leveraging the synergies of AI, data, and localization, CHINT addresses real-world issues such as network resistance and green electricity consumption while paving the path toward carbon neutrality. Zheng emphasized that achieving a deep compliance with regulations and a value symbiosis is critical for sustaining competitive advantages amidst global energy transformation.
ESG as a Guiding Principle
Recognizing the importance of ESG development, Zheng argued that a company’s true value lies in its capacity to contribute positively to a better future. For CHINT, sustainability is an integral component of its DNA. The firm incorporates ESG principles into its operations, fostering an ecological environment, promoting multicultural inclusivity, and enhancing corporate governance. Zheng believes that ESG transcends mere compliance frameworks, serving as a values-based motivator driving both corporate growth and societal progress.
Navigating Local Challenges
In expanding into foreign markets, Zheng elaborated on their strategy of thinking globally while acting locally. In emerging markets like Southeast Asia and the Middle East, CHINT has established sales and service networks in collaboration with local partners. In mature markets such as Europe, they recruit local talent through acquisitions and set up R&D centers to better understand user regulations and needs.
In addition to these strategies, CHINT actively engages in social responsibility programs, such as the "Light Up the Countryside" solar project in Africa, and promotes universal solar programs for households in Latin America, demonstrating their commitment to integrating communities through action.
Future Industry Trends
Looking ahead, Zheng forecasts significant trends in the renewable energy sector over the next 3 to 5 years. Firstly, the energy mix is diversifying rapidly, incorporating a large-scale integration of wind, solar, energy storage, and electric vehicles. This evolution places higher demands on grid resilience and dynamic response abilities. Accordingly, distribution and transmission operators are accelerating the development of new electrical systems that integrate production, grids, loads, and storage, enhancing efficiency, flexibility, and stability.
Secondly, technological innovation will increasingly drive advancements in this sector. Advances in battery technology, distributed storage solutions, and energy networks greatly improve the intelligence and responsiveness of energy systems. Major industry players are becoming more focused on eco-friendly transformations in industrial parks, with renewable energy playing a key role in reducing emissions.
