Preamble
Recently, WG Energy has successfully won the bid for the ±35kV/1500V/±375V DC transformer project of Guangzhou Metro Group. The company will provide a smart flexible DC power distribution solution centered on Solid State Transformer (SST) for Guangzhou Metro, enabling full DC reconstruction of traditional AC power supply systems. This project will be firstly deployed on the eastern extension section of Guangzhou Metro Line 8.

As the world’s first full-set smart flexible DC power supply and distribution system project based on SST, this milestone move marks the official entry of WG Energy’s SST technology into a new era of flexible DC power supply for rail transit, carving a remarkable chapter in the livelihood-oriented urban rail transit infrastructure sector.
01
The significance of this bid win goes far beyond a single project:
This project represents the world’s first practical application of SST-centered smart flexible DC systems in the metro industry. It fully verifies that SST technology is fully capable of replacing and outperforming traditional technologies in urban rail power supply scenarios featuring extreme complexity and high reliability requirements, setting an industry benchmark with far-reaching demonstrative value.
Securing entry into the large-scale rail transit sector marks a crucial leap for WG Energy to expand its core business scope from power grid and industrial fields to people’s livelihood infrastructure. It signifies not only geographic and industrial market expansion, but also a powerful manifestation of the universal applicability and social value of the company’s core technologies.
Gaining recognition from Guangzhou Metro Group amid fierce competition with top domestic and overseas peers stands as the most authoritative affirmation of WG Energy’s technological edge, product reliability and all-round solution delivery capabilities.
WG Energy’s solution is far more than mere equipment replacement; it brings in-depth revolution to the power supply architecture. By adopting high-proportion power electronic devices, it simplifies system structure, cuts energy consumption, and realizes interconnection, interaction and mutual compensation of electric energy.
The successful bid is an inevitable achievement stemming from WG Energy’s long-term in-depth research and continuous pioneering in the SST field. It further proves the forward-looking vision of the company’s "Chip-Grid-Chain" technical framework, with SST serving as the core hub to realize interconnected, interactive and mutually supportive energy allocation.
From extreme-performance power supply for AI computing centers, rapid charging & swapping solutions for electric vehicles, to smart flexible DC systems for rail transit, WG Energy is extending safer, more cost-effective and smarter energy solutions to various pivotal sectors closely linked to national economy and people’s well-being relying on core SST equipment.
Every interconnection reshapes the trajectory of energy development. Leading a Carbon-Neutral Life and Enlightening the World's Future, WG Energy will keep driven by technological innovation to promote the large-scale global application of SST technology, and make solid contributions to the construction of new-type power systems and sustainable energy development.
