SHANGHAI, Sept. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Kmind Consulting, China’s leading strategy consulting firm, hosted an Executive Strategy Program on 18th September at Silicon Valley’s Computer History Museum, becoming the first Chinese strategy consulting firm to do so. Led by Noah Xie, Chairman and CEO of Kmind, the program brought the company’s strategic know-how to more than 100 executives and business leaders from the technology and consumer sectors.

The Innovation Dividend is Shrinking

Silicon Valley tech firms are experiencing a disconnect: technology is advancing rapidly, while turning technological capabilities into durable business value is becoming harder. Companies with leading AI capabilities are releasing new models and products at a relentless pace, intensifying competition while increasing the cost of innovation. At the same time, as technological capabilities become increasingly accessible, competitors can replicate products, features and even aspects of proprietary know-how more quickly.

As the window for technological differentiation narrows, entrepreneurs increasingly face the same question: How can companies turn technological leadership into sustainable business growth and build competitive advantages that are difficult to replicate?

Strategy in the age of AI

Kmind’s Program answered this question by deconstructing the company’s Next Generation Strategy, a framework blending Eastern wisdom with Western theory, with a particular focus on how customer perception shapes decisions across product development, operations and go-to-market strategy. This framework has helped more than 100 companies pursue sustained growth and stronger competitive positions.

The Program also brought real-world cases from leading Chinese companies to Silicon Valley, including:

Bosideng, a decades-old down jacket brand facing an aging brand image, reshaped its high-end perception through strategic products, achieving seven consecutive years of growth to become a global leader in the down-jacket market.Feihe, one of China’s leading dairy manufacturers, transformed from the seventh-ranked infant formula brand into a leading global player through targeted competitive positioning.

Both companies illustrate a broader principle: sustainable growth comes from connecting what a company can build with what customers value, and then embedding that insight across product, brand and go-to-market decisions.

For AI and technology companies, the same principle applies: technological capability becomes strategically valuable only when it translates into differentiated customer value.

“The central challenge for technology companies today is no longer simply how to build better technology, but how to translate technological advantage into lasting customer value and competitive advantage. That is why we brought Kmind’s Next Generation Strategy to Silicon Valley.”
— Noah Xie, Chairman and CEO, Kmind Consulting

“It is rare to encounter a strategic framework as distinctive as Kmind’s Next Generation Strategy in Silicon Valley. Its emphasis on connecting technology with customer insight offers a valuable perspective for companies navigating the AI era.”
—Russell Flannery, Former Editor-in-Chief, Forbes China

SHANGHAI, Sept. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The 4th International Digital Energy Expo (IDEE 2026) was held from September 15 to 17. At IDEE 2026, Huawei Digital Power showcased its latest practices of “grid forming + AI” in renewable energy applications with the theme of “Making the Most of Every Ray, Powering the Unpowered.” The company presented its solutions for utility, grid-forming energy storage system (ESS), smart microgrids, commercial and industrial (C&I) green power, ultra-fast charging, and grid-interactive AI data center (AIDC).

Utility: Grid-Forming Stability Meets Full-Lifecycle AI

Huawei’s FusionSolar9.0 Utility PV Solution unveiled the industry’s first 1000VAC solution, the industry’s first grid-forming string inverter, and the industry’s largest 11MW smart transformer station. This solution further enhances the capabilities of large renewable plants in terms of performance ratio, grid friendliness, and smart operation and maintenance (O&M).

The innovative smart string inverter features grid awareness and oscillation damping. In terms of AI, the FusionSolar Agent, based on the device-edge-cloud collaboration foundation. This helps customers address challenges in electricity marketization and achieve higher overall benefits. On September 10, 2026, Huawei’s Smart I-V Curve Diagnosis solution successfully passed the L5 test, the highest level of certification, from China General Certification Center, becoming the industry’s first solution to achieve this certification.

Grid-Forming ESS: Stabilizing Grids and Enhancing Smart Operation Capabilities

Huawei has developed six plant-level grid-forming capabilities, including short-circuit capacity support, inertia response, wideband oscillation damping, primary frequency regulation, black start, and seamless on/off-grid switching. These capabilities ensure stable grid forming for the entire plant, under all working conditions and at all times.

Huawei showcased its new-generation Smart String Grid Forming ESS Solution. The solution features the industry’s first 1000 VAC smart string architecture, through-busbar architecture, and plant-level grid forming technology. It supports 1000 VAC voltage and the industry’s optimal 12.5 MW/50 MWh array, improving performance ratio and delivery efficiency while further unleashing the revenue potential throughout the lifecycle. Additionally, the solution provides more accurate digital support for electricity trading based on the digital twin platform, and builds a cell-to-grid, full-lifecycle safety assurance system.

Smart Microgrid: Balancing Stable Power Supply and Economical Energy Use

Huawei’s Smart Microgrid Solution features high quality and efficiency, stable grid forming, and lower levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), and has been implemented in many areas worldwide with no or insufficient electricity.

It supports strong and weak grid adaptation, PQ/VSG switching, and full VSG mode operation. The on/off-grid switching time at medium voltage is 40 ms. It also supports a grid-forming SOC range of 5% to 98% and parallel operation of multiple voltage sources with the ESS and gensets. This further improves the system configuration flexibility and energy efficiency while ensuring stable power supply.

C&I Green Power: Grid Forming Unleashes the Value of Generation-Grid-Load-Storage Synergy

The C&I One-Fits-All Solution is designed for various scenarios, including PV-only, ESS-only, PV+ESS, charger+ESS, and virtual power plant (VPP). Huawei also shared its global rollout practices of this solution.

As for energy storage, Huawei introduced its 241 kWh series C&I Hybrid Cooling Grid Forming ESS Solution. This product upgrades the traditional single cooling mode to a smart hybrid cooling mode through an innovative thermal management architecture. It also introduces the innovative “pack-level optimization 2.0” technology. The product achieves a round-trip efficiency (RTE) of 91.8% and a depth of discharge (DOD) of 100%, exceeding the industry average.

Huawei FusionCharge: AI-Powered PV+ESS+Charger for All-Scenario Ultra-fast Charging Networks

Huawei FusionCharge integrates PV, ESS, and chargers into a smart microgrid for passenger and commercial vehicles. Its self-developed system features dual grid-device protection, air-liquid cooling, and AI scheduling that boosts station revenue by over 15%. Collaborating with partners across logistics, urban, and highway scenarios, Huawei aims to build an efficient, grid-friendly, and user-friendly ultra-fast charging network.

Grid-Interactive AIDC: “3+1” Redefining Compute Infrastructure

By leveraging “3+1” innovations, Huawei builds the grid-interactive AIDC that is reliable, energy-efficient, fast to deliver, and grid-friendly to maximize tokens per watt.

Huawei redefines AIDC power supply and thermal management by combining MIMO power architecture—featuring grid-friendly UPS and ESS—with an AI-enabled megawatt-level liquid cooling system. Additionally, AI empowers data centers across their entire lifecycle, ensuring full-link visibility, reliability, and efficient O&M.

Huawei Digital Power prioritizes full-link quality through rigorous R&D, supply, manufacturing, and service processes. Proven globally across extreme environments like extreme cold and high altitudes, Huawei products consistently deliver performance that exceeds expectations.

Huawei Digital Power will drive innovation through high quality, deliver long-term reliable value for customers, and partner with the industry to raise quality standards and achieve excellence.
