On 29 September 2021, ZTE Corporation, China Mobile, and NR Electric jointly released the industry’s first end-to-end 5G Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) deterministic network at the PT/EXPO China 2021. Supporting grid services such as grid-differential protection, the network accelerates the deployment of renewable energy sources, including solar and wind energy, while empowering green grids.
The “climate action” launched by the United Nations aims to promote economic prosperity while protecting the planet. In the power field, greenhouse gas emissions from thermal power generation are huge. Efficient use of clean and renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy is an effective means to achieve “emission peak, carbon neutrality.”
However, wind and solar energy supply are not stable due to factors like weather and location, which bring challenges to the integration of renewable energy into power grids.
