IEEE Ning Hua Talks About IEEE And The IEEE P2030 Work Group In Beijing
In this Mandarin interview, Ning Hua explains how IEEE is expanding its collaboration with China’s energy sector. He notes that the Chinese government is encouraging domestic enterprises to join international standard‑setting bodies, and that IEEE has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with State Grid, the nation’s largest power utility. Building on that agreement, State Grid is actively participating in IEEE’s smart‑grid standards development, especially within the P2030 series. Hua contrasts the smart‑grid ecosystem in North America—where utilities, IT firms, and telecom companies all play major roles—with China’s focus on strengthening the grid to match its unique energy landscape. He then describes the newly formed IEEE P2030.3 working group, whose purpose is to define testing methods and technical details that ensure smart‑grid subsystems and devices comply with the broader P2030 standard.
