Kehua Energy Unveils Innovative Grid-Forming Energy Storage Solutions to Advance New Power System Development

Kehua Data: New Developments in Networked Energy Storage Empowering the Construction of New Power Systems
As the energy storage industry continues to thrive, networked energy storage has become a focal point due to its outstanding performance and vast application potential. Kehua Data, a global leader in energy storage system solutions, leverages its strong technical foundation and innovative spirit to explore new avenues for the development of the energy storage sector.
On April 11, during the sub-forum of the 13th International Energy Storage Summit, Kehua Data delivered an engaging presentation titled “Exploration of Networked Technology in Large-Scale Energy Storage Stations”. The presentation provided an in-depth analysis of the current state of the industry and advancements in networked energy storage technology, emphasizing their advanced liquid-cooled cluster PCS system solutions and numerous successful project implementations, garnering high recognition from experts and industry professionals present.
Kehua Data highlighted that with a higher proportion of clean energy integrated into the grid, system inertia decreases, posing challenges to grid stability. Networked technology enables energy storage systems to simulate the function of synchronous generators, proactively responding to and enhancing grid inertia, frequency, voltage, and short-circuit current, thus providing robust support for new power systems and effectively addressing grid adaptability issues.
Currently, networked energy storage technology is becoming increasingly mature, with a broader range of applications and tremendous potential. In the field of microgrid support, it can adapt to various sizes of off-grid microgrids, meeting the power supply needs of special areas such as high-altitude regions and ensuring microgrid availability. In terms of grid black start capabilities, it can serve as a regional black start power source, enhancing grid emergency response and enabling rapid recovery of large power grids. Regarding grid stability support, it effectively addresses local grid stability challenges, strengthens power delivery capabilities at critical plants, and provides solid voltage support to ensure stable and reliable power supply.
In the domain of networked energy storage, Kehua Data is committed to continuous technological innovation and product upgrades. The latest liquid-cooled cluster PCS energy storage solution unveiled at the summit not only enhances the existing product lineup and expands application scenarios but also elevates Kehua Data’s innovation in energy storage technology to new heights. The new generation of liquid-cooled cluster management PCS achieves ultra-high power density, reducing costs and laying the groundwork for the efficient operation of energy storage devices.
In terms of networked performance, the new product demonstrates exceptional capabilities, maintaining stable operation in complex grid environments and even achieving reliable operation under three times overload. It features millisecond-level power response and microsecond-level voltage build capabilities, along with adaptive wide short-circuit ratios, multi-coordination for black start, and domain-level black start functionalities.
In terms of cooling, the new product employs a fully liquid-cooled design and a patented cooling plate, akin to installing a powerful “air conditioner” on the device. Even in high-temperature environments of up to 50℃, the PCS can maintain stable operation without derating, significantly enhancing equipment stability and reliability. This upgrade also extends system life by over 25%.
From a structural protection standpoint, the new product features IP66+C5 corrosion-resistant composite protection and has undergone rigorous testing in various harsh environments, effectively handling rain, snow, wind, sand, and high-corrosion conditions.
Furthermore, the new product’s adaptability is highly flexible. It is compatible with batteries of various sizes and capacities, catering to both 2-hour and 4-hour energy storage application scenarios, thus enhancing system availability.
This innovative achievement not only showcases Kehua Data’s strong capabilities in energy storage technology but also injects new vitality into the development of networked energy storage technology, leading the direction of industry development.
With a solid foundation of 37 years in power electronics technology and experience in over 4,000 new energy projects, Kehua Data holds a competitive edge in the megawatt-scale long-duration networked energy storage application scenarios. Since 2007, Kehua Data has shipped over 1GW of networked energy storage systems. In exploring diverse regional networked projects, Kehua Data has progressively expanded its application areas, from microgrid network practices to strong overload network black starts, leaving its mark in various operational scenarios from islands and remote areas to weak and strong grids in new energy regions.
In 2024, Kehua Data became the first company in China to pass the comprehensive network verification tests conducted by the China Electric Power Research Institute, marking its leading position in networked energy storage technology within the industry. In 2025, it delivered a 300MW/1200MWh networked energy storage project in Xinjiang and a 60MW/300MWh high-altitude independent networked energy storage project in the Ali region of Tibet, providing full-capacity networked energy storage system solutions and setting benchmarks for GWh-level networked energy storage and ultra-high altitude energy storage stations.
As a pioneering force in the field of networked energy storage, Kehua Data significantly contributes to the stable operation of power grids and the widespread application of clean energy through its outstanding technical capabilities and rich practical experience. Moving forward, Kehua Data will continue to forge ahead on the path of energy transition, relentlessly exploring and innovating to contribute more to the safe and sustainable development of the energy storage industry, leading the sector to new heights.
