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 commissioned Cambodia’s first TÜV SÜD-certified grid-forming energy storage project, marking a significant milestone in the country’s shift towards a sustainable energy future. As a prominent energy solutions provider in the region, SchneiTec previously developed Cambodia’s largest solar power plant.
This newly completed 12MWh energy storage project features a 2MWh testbed dedicated to validating Huawei’s Smart String Grid-Forming ESS technology. The system has showcased its remarkable ability to stabilize the grid in both off-grid and weak-grid situations by enabling the smooth 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 expansion and large-scale energy infrastructure development. The project underwent joint testing by TÜV SÜD, SchneiTec, and Huawei Digital Power. TÜV SÜD, known worldwide for its stringent standards in energy technology testing and certification, verified the essential technical capabilities of Huawei’s Smart String Grid-Forming ESS, which include 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 represents the first overseas on-site validation of the system that fully complies with international standards, including IEC, China National Standards, the UK Grid Code, and Germany’s VDE standards. Obtaining TÜV SÜD certification indicates that Huawei’s grid-forming ESS technology meets globally recognized benchmarks for energy management and grid stability.
This achievement not only marks a significant milestone in Huawei Digital Power’s technological development journey but also represents a landmark moment in the advancement of energy sector innovation. The successful collaboration between Huawei Digital Power and SchneiTec signifies a crucial step forward in Cambodia’s renewable energy transition. As Cambodia’s renewable energy roadmap unfolds, Huawei Digital Power will continue driving innovation by delivering stable, scalable, and reliable solutions to meet the country’s increasing demand for sustainable electricity and supporting the development of its energy infrastructure.
