Recently, the State Grid Corporation released information to make a comprehensive deployment arrangement for the construction of the ubiquitous electric Internet of Things. According to the arrangement, by 2021, State Grid plans to initially build the ubiquitous electric power Internet of Things, basically realize business collaboration and data integration, and initially realize unified management of Internet of Things to support the development of power grid business and emerging businesses.

Universal electric Internet of Things is an intelligent service system featuring comprehensive state perception, efficient information processing, convenient and flexible application, which focuses on all links of the power system and fully applies modern information technology and advanced communication technology such as mobile Internet and artificial intelligence to realize interconnection of everything and human-computer interaction in all links of the power system. It involves the terminal information collector (sensor, RFID, etc.), edge computing, communication network, cloud platform, artificial intelligence five layers, including the perception layer, network layer, platform layer, application layer four layers structure.

In short, ubiquitous electric Internet of Things is a specific application of 5G technology and the concept of the Internet of Things applied in the power industry system. First of all, it is a new generation of information and communication system. Second, it can link the equipment, customer service and data of energy production, transmission and consumption in real time. Third, it can fully carry power grid operation, enterprise operation, customer service, new business forms and other businesses.

Industrial Securities Research Report, Great Wall Securities, Essence Securities all said that in the next few years, ubiquitous electric iot has a huge application potential, will continue to upgrade in the future, the average annual investment of the State grid will rise from 10 billion yuan to 40 billion to 60 billion yuan.

It is known that more than 500 million terminal devices (including 450 million electric meters and tens of millions of various protection, acquisition and control devices) are currently connected to the State Grid system. The State Grid plans that by 2030, the number of devices connected to the SG-eIoT system will reach 2 billion, and the entire ubiquitous electric Internet of Things will be the largest Internet of Things ecosystem with access devices.

In addition, with the acceleration of investment in ubiquitous electric Internet of Things, the State Grid information and communication industry units with comprehensive strength of the overall solution of ubiquitous electric Internet of things, power secondary equipment enterprises and related software enterprises that have been deeply engaged in power informatization related fields for many years, and sensor monitoring and related applications will benefit.
