Hou Jinlong, director of Huawei and president of Huawei Digital Energy, delivered a core speech at the "2026 Huawei China Digital Energy Partnership Conference" held in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province recently. In his speech, he systematically elaborated on the development blueprint of the digital energy industry, and specifically pointed out that in the key area of electric travel, technological innovation is pushing user experience to new heights.
Hou Jinlong clearly mentioned in his speech that in the field of charging network, Huawei is "taking the lead in the innovation of automobile electric energy supplement technology and defining a new standard for super-charging energy supplement". He put forward two clear and impactful quantitative goals: for passenger cars, to achieve a "one kilometer per second" energy replenishment speed; for electric heavy trucks, to achieve a "5-minute 100-kilometer" energy replenishment experience. Huawei has set these two standards as "benchmarks for the industry's ultimate complementary experience".
The "second-level energy supplement" standard is far more significant than a single technological breakthrough. It first points to the fundamental pain point of the popularity of electric vehicles-energy efficiency. In the past, the focus of industry competition was mainly focused on improving the mileage, but the convenience of charging has not been fundamentally alleviated. The standard of "one kilometer per second" means that the time required to supplement the endurance of hundreds of kilometers will be shortened from small hours or tens of minutes to minutes or even less. This fundamentally reshapes the user's expectations for the convenience of electric vehicles.
At the same time, the standard also deeply reflects the core strategy of Huawei's digital energy "technology-driven, scene-deep cultivation. The realization of extreme charging power requires power electronics technology, thermal management technology, and deep collaboration with the vehicle-side battery management system, which is a cutting-edge solution proposed after the specific scenario of "electric travel. It does not exist in isolation, but a microcosm of Huawei's overall technological strength in the field of digital energy.
In his speech, Hou Jinlong further revealed the deep connection between the supercharging network and the broader energy revolution. He pointed out: "The electrification of the consumer side and the large-scale two-way drive of new energy on the production side are accelerating the deep integration of the integration of source network and storage."
The popularity of large-scale, high-power supercharging networks as a new type of explosive growth of electricity loads is itself a clear manifestation of this driving force. It not only poses a challenge to the carrying capacity and stability of the power grid, but also inevitably promotes the development of supporting technologies and business models such as "grid-type energy storage" and "virtual power plant", thus becoming a powerful market driving force for the construction of new power systems.
defines the "second-level energy supplement" standard, which is far more meaningful than a single technical indicator. It just confirms Hou Jinlong's core judgment on the industrial trend: "technological breakthrough is not a single point, but the whole industrial chain upstream and downstream collaborative upgrading."
This benchmark essentially sets a common technical goal and user experience bullseye for the entire industrial ecology of vehicles, batteries, charging facilities, and power grid operations. This means that the competitive dimension in the field of electric travel is undergoing a fundamental change: from a single vehicle performance competition to a systematic capability competition of the whole industry chain with "energy supplement efficiency" as the core and covering "car, pile, network and storage.
As Hou Jinlong emphasized in the summary: "If you walk alone, you walk far."
by defining the new standard of super charging, Huawei not only demonstrates its own technological leadership, but also points out a very attractive future direction for the co-evolution of the entire digital energy industry on the electric travel track with the idea of ecological win-win.
