With a trillion-level "scene" trend, Panhub drives value innovation through technological innovation and empowers industrial upgrading

Since The General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Accelerating the Cultivation and Opening of Scenarios and Promoting the Large-scale Application of New Scenarios" (hereinafter referred to as the "Opinions"), the "scenario economy" has become an important engine driving industrial innovation and stimulating market vitality.

Governments at all levels regard "scenario lists/scenario opportunities" as high-frequency tools for attracting new users and solidifying the situation, and cultivate new scenarios to open up a "channel" from technology to industry in new fields.

Enterprises and business entities take "scene application/scene value" as the core indicator for the transformation of scientific and technological innovation achievements and accelerate the layout of the scene innovation ecosystem.

As a leading enterprise in the field of axial magneto-current drive technology, Panhu emempowerment industrial upgrading with electric drive solutions that have obvious differentiated value, driving innovation achievements to take root in practical scenarios and releasing greater economic and social value.

What is a scene?

Scenarios have become a key resource for innovation

"Scene", originally a concept and term in the field of film and television, has now become a specific context for the innovative application of new technologies, new products, and new business forms. It serves as a key bridge connecting technology and industry, as well as bridging research and development with the market.

China has a super-large-scale market, a complete industrial system and a huge population, which bring the advantage of rich application scenarios. Scenarios have become key innovation resources. Li Chunlin, vice minister of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the release of the "Implementation Opinions" is precisely to leverage this unique advantage. Through scenario cultivation and opening up, it aims to systematically verify new technologies and new products, move the innovation environment from traditional laboratories to real market environments, form a "touchstone" for the feasibility of technologies, and thereby promote their large-scale commercialization. Promote the synchronous resonance of the innovation chain and the industrial chain.

Essentially, scene construction is fundamentally different from the traditional sense of "demonstration of scientific and technological achievements". It places greater emphasis on market orientation and system solutions, not only focusing on the maturity of the technology itself, but also on the comprehensive performance of the technology under the synergy with infrastructure, business models, and institutional loops.

What is scene value?

Industrial efficiency has been enhanced and user experience has been upgraded

According to the top-level design of the "Implementation Opinions", scene value refers to the comprehensive efficiency of achieving "precise matching of technological breakthroughs and industrial demands, as well as the two-way implementation of market value and social value" through systematic verification of new technologies, new products, and new business forms in specific application scenarios.

For instance, in the manufacturing sector, which is listed as a "new business form application scenario for industrial transformation and upgrading" in the "Implementation Opinions", statistics show that motors account for about 70% of the total industrial electricity consumption, with a large total base and a long continuous electricity usage period. Based on the current industrial situation, the general fans, pumps and other equipment innovatively designed by the hub based on the application of axial flux motors and combined with fluid mechanics simulation technology have generally achieved energy-saving rates of over 30%.

Taking Jinhua Ningneng Thermal Power as an example, after the 110kW desalinating water pump adopted the hub solution, under the same operation effect, the energy-saving rate compared with traditional water pumps exceeded 32.1%, saving more than 63,000 yuan in electricity fees annually, and reducing carbon emissions by 123.4 tons per unit per year. After the 110kW circulating slurry pump adopts the hub solution, a single device can save 101,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity annually. At present, Ningneng Thermal Power has adopted the coil hub solution to renovate nearly 10 sets of various equipment, and it is expected that the annual electricity savings will reach over 400,000 kilowatt-hours.

Hub power, 10 likes

The deep coupling of technological innovation with actual production scenarios can not only bring direct economic benefits to enterprises and enhance their market competitiveness, but also generate significant social value in energy conservation, emission reduction, green development and other aspects, forming a virtuous cycle of "technology empowering scenarios and scenarios feeding back to industries".

Hub technology empowers the transformation of scene value

Axial magneto-current drive activates the differentiated value of scenarios

The Implementation Opinions have clearly defined the core path of "technological breakthrough - scenario verification - industrial application - system upgrade". The core breakthrough lies in regarding "scenarios" as a scarce innovative resource, and technological innovation is the key to activating this resource.

From a more macroscopic perspective, the promotion of scene value by technological innovation is reflected in three aspects:

The first is to reduce the implementation cost through efficiency improvement. For instance, in the fields of new energy buses and special-purpose vehicles, the innovative axial magneto-current drive solution of Pan Hub has achieved a "small model replacing large one" in terminal application scenarios. The 7-meter pan hub "metro bus" has reached the transportation capacity level of an 8-meter ordinary new energy bus, and the passenger capacity of an 8-meter "metro bus" is comparable to that of a 10-meter ordinary bus. The entire vehicle is equipped with 7 hub axial flux motors and distributed drive electric sweeping and washing sanitation vehicles, with an operation capacity that can reach the level of 7-ton diesel models and 10-ton traditional new energy models.

The second is to expand the boundaries of scenarios through performance breakthroughs. For instance, in fields such as construction machinery and new energy agricultural machinery, hub axial flux motors have short axial dimensions, light self-weight, and a wide high-efficiency range, which is more conducive to the realization of "oil-to-electric" conversions and the layout of composite (such as hybrid power, range-extended power, etc.) power systems. For instance, the power architecture of "dual axial flux motors + through drive shafts" developed and launched by Panhub for the high-horsepower agricultural machinery market has a peak power of 900kW and an axial dimension of only 407mm. It can fully follow the existing wheelbase layout of fuel tractors, with minimal development changes. By adjusting the control strategy, the efficient coupling and intelligent distribution of power are achieved, which not only retains the operational reliability of traditional fuel tractors but also endows new energy agricultural machinery with lower usage costs and better environmental protection performance.

The third is to foster a new ecosystem through collaborative innovation. For instance, in fields such as new energy heavy-duty trucks and electric motorcycles, hub electric drive solutions can be customized and developed according to user requirements. The integrated electric drive axle of the new energy heavy-duty truck adopts a disc hub scheme, with a larger reserved space on the chassis, which is more conducive to the bottom placement of the battery. The bottom battery swap new energy heavy-duty truck jointly developed with upstream and downstream industrial chains such as CATL and Shaanxi Automobile Datong can complete the battery swap within 3 to 5 minutes, achieving higher operational efficiency. The "Top Ten Technological advancements" of the motor and gearbox have led to a weight reduction of approximately 400kg in the drive system. At the same time, comprehensive upgrades have been made to the vehicle's power performance, reliability, and energy consumption economy. In the Shanxi coal transportation dedicated line, which has been in operation for nearly a year, the average power consumption of the fleet has dropped to as low as 1.2 kilowatt-hours per kilometer, saving money along the way! With the support of innovative technologies, the "heavy truck battery swapping ecosystem" is accelerating its formation.

During the window period when policies related to scenario cultivation are being rolled out intensively, a series of high-value application scenarios are opening up to the market with an unprecedented intensity. For the majority of enterprises, this is not only a strategic opportunity for transformation and upgrading, but also a key turning point for reshaping the competitive landscape.

The practice of Panhu shows that technological innovation is not only the foundation for realizing the value of scenarios, but also the core engine for expanding the boundaries of industries and innovating business models.

Pangu looks forward to working with more partners to accelerate the application of innovative solutions in various scenarios and write a new chapter of "scenario value transformation" in more fields.
