In early June 2021, the National Development and Reform Commission, National Energy Administration, Office of the Central Cyberspace Affairs Commission, and Ministry of Industry and Information Technology jointly issued the "5G Application Implementation Plan in the Energy Field". They proposed that "in the next 3 to 5 years, focus on smart power plants, smart grids, smart coal mines, smart oil and gas, integrated energy, and smart manufacturing and construction, explore a variety of 5G typical application scenarios, construct various 5G industry dedicated networks or virtual dedicated networks, and explore competitive business models that can be replicated and easily promoted." In addition, they will also develop technology, matching products, standards, and platforms related to 5G applications in the energy field to enhance the basic support capabilities of 5G in the energy field.

5G has the characteristics of high bandwidth, low latency, and wide connectivity, and will have a profound impact on all aspects of power generation-power transmission-power distribution-power consumption in the highly intelligent power industry. In terms of field auxiliary assembly for power generation, workers can successfully assemble equipment components under the remote guidance of experts by wearing 5G AR glasses to solve problems, such as the problem where experts cannot be present on site; in terms of power distribution monitoring, 5G can implement unmanned inspections, improve O&M efficiency, and reduce manpower input; in terms of power distribution network regulation and protection, 5G can implement rapid and precise positioning of faulty lines and improve power supply reliability of the power grid; in terms of load control and differential protection, 5G can implement real-time awareness and precise load control of massive data, further enhancing the safe and stable operation of the power system.

Neoway Technology's 5G wireless communications module N510M has taken the lead in the power industry and is applied to terminal equipment, such as energy controllers, converged terminals, and FTUs based on 15 years of strong technology and rich experience in the field of wireless communications. This further improves the efficiency of power operation and provides a stable and reliable communications guarantee. Neoway N510M is the industry's first 5G communications module based on the UNISOC platform. Neoway N510M:

• Supports SA and NSA networking.
• Is compatible with 4G and 3G networks, and can work properly without 5G networks.
• Supports network slicing to meet the hierarchical applications of 5G dedicated networks for different services.
• Supports microsecond-level 5G network timing.
• Supports a variety of specifications in the power industry, greatly simplifying the integration and development of power applications.
• Has rich interfaces and provides stable performance.

As a pioneer in the field of power IoT wireless communications, Neoway has been growing together with the industry and continuing to lead the industry since the beginning of the intelligentization of China's electric power industry in 2009. Since 2010, Neoway has been ranking the first in terms of market share in the power IoT industry. In the 2G era, Neoway developed and launched the pure data communications module M590. In the 3G era, Neoway launched N51 in countries outsides China, and its market share took the lead in many countries and regions. In the 4G era, the Neoway innovative 4G all-mode module N720 brings more value to customers' terminal products. In addition, the industry's first Cat.NB2+GPRS dual-mode NB-IoT modules N25 and Cat.NB+Cat.M1+GPRS three-mode modules N27 enable Neoway Technology to help customers enter electric power markets in many countries around the world.

As the public facilities, the power system is one of the basic guarantees that are vital to people's livelihood. Neoway Technology will maintain its leading advantages for more than 10 years, and continue to collaborate with customers and partners in the 5G era to provide reliable wireless communications products and services, improving the safe and stable operation of the electric power industry.
