[Dongguan, China, April 7, 2026] Huawei successfully hosted the FusionSolar9.0 Smart PV Solution APAC Launch, under the theme “Redefine Life Cycle Optimal LCOE.” The launch marks a significant step forward in advancing intelligent, low-carbon energy solutions and reinforces Huawei’s commitment to driving the next phase of solar innovation.
The launch kicked off with a compelling opening address by Steven Zhou, President of Smart PV & ESS Product Line, Huawei Digital Power, emphasizing Huawei's vision for the Asia-Pacific market. He noted the region is transitioning from "scale expansion" to "value cultivation," with FusionSolar9.0 redefining lifecycle optimal LCOE through fundamental technology breakthroughs. He highlighted grid-forming technology as key to power system stability, citing the world's largest 3.5GW PV plus 4.5GWh ESS grid-forming project in the Philippines, which achieves 13 hours of stable power supply. He explained that AI will empower solar-storage systems to achieve "fewer-person and unmanned" operations across mountainous, floating, and remote island sites, empowering each plant with self-optimization capabilities. He reaffirmed that quality and safety remain Huawei's top priority. He concluded by inviting APAC partners to collaborate on bringing green power to every home and industry.
Steve Zhang, President of Utility, Commercial & Industrial Solar Business, Huawei Digital Power, introduced the long-awaited Huawei FusionSolar9.0 as a breakthrough in smart PV innovation, representing a major leap from conventional solar systems to intelligent, grid-supporting energy solutions. This revolutionary solution exemplifies Huawei’s leadership in digital power industry, pushing the boundaries of what utility-scale solar can achieve, which includes the new 505KTL Smart String Inverters, 3000/7000/11000kVA Smart Transformer Stations, Smart PV etc. The solution realized multiple ‘industry firsts’ in industry —— the first 1000Vac PV system, first grid-forming string inverter, and support max. 11MW PV array through fundamental technology breakthrough.
Valuable Perspectives from Leading Industry Experts
Industry experts at the event also shared forward-looking insights on the evolving role of solar in modern power systems, emphasizing the growing importance of grid stability, system reliability, and lifecycle value as renewable penetration increases.
• Tharinya Supasa, Head of Renewable Energy Department, ASEAN Centre for Energy — As supply will exceed demand, it is critical to choose higher quality equipment to ensure the best performance in reshaping ASEAN's energy transition and navigating global energy disruptions.
• Patrick Zank, Senior Consultant Digital Energy System, VDE — Scaling power without evolving safety design will scale risk, not progress, requiring parallel investment in safety innovation to achieve reliable deployment at scale.
Setting New Standards: Delivering Measurable Value Across the Lifecycle
FusionSolar9.0 sets a new benchmark for utility-scale solar by translating technological breakthroughs into four tangible values:
• Lower System Cost, Greater Returns: Achieves $0.3-0.6/Wp BOS cost reduction, reduces commissioning costs by $200,000 per 500MW project, and increases energy yield by ~1%, directly improving project IRR and shortening payback periods.
• Stronger Grid Support: With industry-first grid-forming inverter technology, the solution enhances sgrid supporting capacity and can significantly improve renewable integration capability even under weak power grid condition.
• Smarter, More Efficient O&M: Through AI-driven diagnostics and integrated inspection, FusionSolar9.0 improves fault detection efficiency by over 50%, while self-cleaning inverter technology can save up to USD 300,000 over 25 years, significantly reducing operational costs.
• Enhanced Safety and Reliability: Equipped with multi-layer safety mechanisms and advanced cooling systems, the solution improves heat dissipation capacity by 30%, ensuring stable and secure plant operation.
These measurable gains position FusionSolar9.0 as a game-changer for utility-scale solar, enabling developers to achieve stronger economics, higher reliability, and future-ready grid performance.
Driving the Future of Intelligent Solar
With the launch of FusionSolar9.0, Huawei reinforces its commitment to advancing the global energy transition through innovation in digital power. By redefining lifecycle value and enabling solar plants to become intelligent, grid-supporting assets, Huawei is shaping the next generation of energy systems and accelerating the adoption of sustainable, low-carbon solutions.
