Huawei and SchneiTec Commission World’s First TÜV SÜD-Certified Grid-Forming Energy Storage Project
SHANGHAI, June 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Huawei Digital Power, in partnership with SchneiTec, has successfully launched Cambodia’s inaugural TÜV SÜD-certified grid-forming energy storage project. This achievement marks a significant milestone in the country’s journey toward a sustainable energy future.
As a prominent energy solutions provider in the region, SchneiTec has previously developed Cambodia’s largest solar power plant. The newly completed energy storage project boasts a capacity of 12MWh, which includes a 2MWh testbed specifically designed to validate Huawei’s Smart String Grid-Forming Energy Storage System (ESS) technology. This system has proven its ability to stabilize the grid in both off-grid and weak-grid scenarios, enabling the seamless integration of intermittent renewable energy sources.
The project has received official certification from TÜV SÜD, signifying Cambodia’s first deployment of a grid-forming ESS and establishing a robust foundation for future capacity enhancements and large-scale energy infrastructure development. Joint testing was conducted by TÜV SÜD, SchneiTec, and Huawei Digital Power. TÜV SÜD, recognized globally for its stringent standards in energy technology testing and certification, confirmed the key technical capabilities of Huawei’s Smart String Grid-Forming ESS, such as inertia response, high/low voltage ride-through, frequency support, and overload performance.
Key Testing Highlights: This independent verification of Huawei’s grid-forming ESS technology marks the first overseas on-site validation of the system, fully compliant with international standards, including IEC, China National Standards, the UK Grid Code, and Germany’s VDE standards. The attainment of TÜV SÜD certification demonstrates that Huawei’s grid-forming ESS technology meets internationally recognized benchmarks for energy management and grid stability.
This milestone not only represents a significant achievement in Huawei Digital Power’s technological advancement but also serves as a landmark moment in the evolution of innovation within the energy sector. The successful collaboration between Huawei Digital Power and SchneiTec indicates a substantial step forward in Cambodia’s renewable energy transition. As Cambodia’s renewable energy roadmap unfolds, Huawei Digital Power will continue to spearhead innovation, providing stable, scalable, and reliable solutions to satisfy the country’s increasing demand for sustainable electricity, while also supporting the advancement of its energy infrastructure.
