2025 International Power Electronics Live Festival Launches to Explore Zero-Carbon Future Through Four Key Technologies

Tianjin, April 25, 2025 /PR Newswire/ — The leading media and innovative service platform for the power electronics industry, Dianyuan, announced the official launch of the 2025 Dianyuan International Power Electronics Live Festival on April 23. Esteemed experts from well-known domestic universities, industry alliances, and notable enterprises from both China and abroad have gathered online, bringing together thousands of industry elites for an eight-month-long intellectual feast from April to November.

The <b>2025 Dianyuan International Power Electronics Live Festival</b> (hereafter referred to as the Live Festival) centers around the theme of <b>"Innovation-Driven, Synergistic Coexistence."</b> It combines popular technologies and applications, featuring four key themes: <b>"Wide Bandgap Semiconductors,"</b> <b>"Energy Storage and Battery Management,"</b> <b>"Automotive Power Systems and Smart Scenarios,"</b> and <b>"Motor Drive and Industrial Control."</b> Having been held for seven consecutive years since its inception in 2019, the Live Festival has gained significant attention and recognition from engineers, establishing a strong reputation within the industry. The festival utilizes a hybrid format of online live events and offline professional summits, collaborating with upstream and downstream partners to offer diverse learning opportunities and insights into cutting-edge technology breakthroughs and industry integration. Participation in both online and offline sessions is completely free.

During this year's festival, technology will serve as the connecting link among the three core sectors of energy, transportation, and industry. By delving into the latest technologies and application achievements across various fields, the Live Festival aims to assist professionals in seizing opportunities amid industrial transformations and collaboratively sketching the future blueprint for the power electronics industry. Whether your interests lie in the development of new energy vehicles or the enthusiasm for industrial automation and smart manufacturing, you will find a wealth of information and fresh perspectives at the Live Festival.

<h2>Four Key Themes Defining Industry Trends</h2>
With the surge in demand for new energy vehicles, 5G stations, and data centers, <b>SiC (Silicon Carbide)</b> and <b>GaN (Gallium Nitride)</b> wide bandgap semiconductors are set to remain hot topics in the semiconductor industry throughout 2025. The market scale continues to grow, particularly with wider applications in electric vehicles, 5G communications, and renewable energy grid integration. The Live Festival has invited esteemed experts, including researchers from the <b>Chinese Academy of Sciences</b>, <b>Fudan University</b>, and <b>Tianjin University of Technology</b>, as well as professionals from companies like <b>STMicroelectronics</b>, <b>Navitas Semiconductor</b>, <b>ON Semiconductor</b>, and <b>Power Integrations (PI)</b> to share core technological innovations and application expansions related to third-generation semiconductors, smart grids, and electric vehicle drive systems.

In 2024, driven by global carbon neutrality objectives, the energy storage market is expected to continue its rapid growth, with newly operational energy storage project installations reaching <b>82.7 GW</b>, a year-on-year increase of <b>59.0%</b>. Notably, new energy storage installations account for nearly <b>90%</b>, amounting to <b>74.1 GW/177.8 GWh</b>, with a year-on-year growth of <b>62.5%/61.9%</b>. The US, China, and Europe remain leaders in the global energy storage market, with their combined new installations further increasing to <b>90%</b>. According to the <b>2025 Energy Storage Industry Research White Paper</b>, smart Battery Management Systems (BMS) are becoming mainstream, with AI algorithms achieving battery health prediction accuracies exceeding <b>95%</b>, extending battery life by <b>10%-15%</b>. Virtual power plants are utilizing AI algorithms to aggregate distributed energy storage resources for participation in electricity spot market transactions, thereby enhancing project returns. This competition, focusing on safety and lifespan management, will address technical challenges such as cell balancing accuracy, thermal runaway warning algorithms, and State of Health (SOH) prediction models. As the <b>International Energy Agency (IEA)</b> sets a target for a <b>15-fold increase in global energy storage capacity by 2030</b>, energy storage and battery management technologies will play a pivotal role in energy internet, vehicle-to-grid (V2G) interactions, and virtual power plants, facilitating the transition to a zero-carbon society.

In the <b>"Automotive Power Systems and Smart Scenarios"</b> theme, the evolution of electric vehicle batteries, electric drives, and control systems is harmonizing with energy internet and autonomous driving, redefining the boundaries of transportation and energy. According to the IEA, the global electric vehicle penetration rate exceeded <b>18%</b> in 2023, with China accounting for over <b>60%</b>. The adoption of <b>800V</b> high-voltage platforms and integrated electric drive systems is accelerating. McKinsey predicts that by <b>2030</b>, the market scale for on-board power electronics will surpass <b>$200 billion</b>, with smart cockpits and V2G scenarios creating new growth drivers. Currently, the competition in automotive power systems has shifted from individual performance metrics to system-level integration capabilities, as electric vehicles evolve from mere modes of transportation to adjustable power units and distributed energy storage platforms. This transformation requires not only robust technological capabilities but also a higher level of cross-domain integration for automakers.

Currently, the number of motors in operation in China exceeds <b>3 billion kW</b>, with motor energy consumption accounting for over <b>50%</b> of total electricity consumption. However, the proportion of efficient motors in use is only around <b>20%</b>. Driven by Industry 4.0 and global carbon neutrality goals, national energy efficiency standards are compelling the widespread adoption of efficient motors. Under the theme of <b>Motor Drive and Industrial Control</b>, we will focus on three dimensions: efficiency, precision, and connectivity, exploring new motor drive and industrial control technologies, as well as AI-based predictive maintenance systems, to experience the profound transformation from "mechanical execution" to "intelligent decision-making." As the IEA's goal of a <b>40%</b> improvement in energy efficiency in industrial sectors is realized, motor drive and industrial control technologies will be deeply integrated into flexible manufacturing and zero-carbon factories, becoming core pillars of intelligent manufacturing and green transformation.

<h2>Engineers' Cloud Walk: Collect Power Points to Win Prizes</h2>
Throughout the eight-month-long live sharing season, in addition to professional technical presentations, Dianyuan has launched a diverse "Collect Power Points to Win Prizes" campaign, offering a wealth of physical gifts, JD electronic cards, and WeChat red envelopes. Engineers can earn fixed power points through daily check-ins, referrals, and completing daily tasks. New registered users will receive exclusive power points for completing beginner tasks. Referrers will earn power points while being able to exchange additional red envelope rewards based on the number of referrals. Completing designated tasks such as sharing the Electronic Planet APP, signing up for live sessions, scheduling individual webinars, sharing the live room during broadcasts, and participating in interactive Q&A can also yield substantial power points. Power points can be directly redeemed for a variety of exciting prizes.

Dianyuan will invest a million in traffic and prize resources to promote the development of the Live Festival, enhancing opportunities for engineers in their respective fields to engage and learn.
