Developing embodied intelligent technology to create a new type of power system with new quality productivity

Recently, the 8th China Energy Industry Development Annual Conference 2025 with the theme of "Building a New Power System and Building an Energy Strong Country" was held in Beijing. Comrades from relevant departments of the central and state organs, foreign envoys to China, representatives of local government departments, leaders of Chinese and foreign enterprises, and experts and scholars attended the forum. Hu Rong, Director, General Manager, and Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee of Southern Power Grid Digital Grid Research Institute Co., Ltd., attended the meeting and delivered a keynote speech. He stated that in today's era of deep integration between the energy revolution and the digital revolution, Southern Power Grid is committed to creating an open and collaborative intelligent robot ecosystem for the power industry, using cutting-edge embodied intelligent technology to "strengthen and enhance" the transformation of energy and power and the construction of new power systems. The 2025 government work report mentions "embodied intelligence" and "intelligent robots", and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and local governments have successively introduced a series of policies to vigorously promote the deep application of artificial intelligence and robots in various industries, pointing out the development direction for the energy and power industry and bringing unprecedented development opportunities. We must soberly recognize the challenges behind the opportunities. Currently, the embodied intelligence field is facing core bottlenecks such as a scarcity of high-end talents, high training costs, and difficulties in industry adaptation. Relying solely on a few top technology manufacturers makes it difficult to deeply understand and meet the core scenario requirements of highly specialized and strong safety regulations in industries such as power, and there is a significant gap in the large-scale application of technology. ”Hu Rong stated that in this context, Southern Power Grid actively responded to the national call and led the independent research and development of the "Electric Vehicle Intelligent Brain", taking scene driven and cross adaptation as the entry point for the market, actively integrating and driving the development of the robot industry. At present, the power embodied brain of Southern Power Grid has been successfully applied on bipedal humanoid robots, suitable for relatively simple scenarios such as power exhibition halls and business halls. What is even more worth looking forward to is that in the field of power transformation, we have conducted precise testing of equipment operation on wheeled robots and expect to complete a complete closed-loop inspection operation before the end of the year. According to the plan, by 2027, we will expand to more than ten business scenarios. "Hu Rong introduced," We look forward to using the basic capabilities of the power vehicle model to connect more equipment manufacturers and carry out simulation and field testing for the real needs of various scenarios such as power plants and industrial and mining enterprises, so that embodied intelligent technology can truly settle on the front line, reduce the workload of front-line personnel, and form a new quality productivity of the new power system
