On November 12, a comprehensive energy demonstration station featuring "Wind-Solar-Swap-Storage-Charging" was officially commissioned in Ningde, Fujian. The station was jointly developed by CATL's Qiji Battery Swap and GCL Energy Technology Co., Ltd. By connecting to GCL Energy Technology's "Juxing AIVP" virtual power plant platform, the station enables intelligent scheduling of comprehensive energy scenarios for heavy-duty trucks through AI algorithms. Niu Shubin, Vice President of GCL Energy Technology, noted that transportation infrastructure such as battery swap stations and ultra-fast charging stations are emerging as distributed flexible regulation resources with significant potential in the new power system. Aggregating energy storage, charging and battery swap loads, along with distributed renewable energy from dispersed stations through this platform, helps enhance the overall regulation capacity and market participation value of the transportation energy network. GCL Energy Technology will leverage its strengths in comprehensive energy services, AI virtual power plant regulation, and electricity market trading to deepen collaboration with CATL and promote the integrated development of the transportation and energy industries.
