At present, energy, electric power and other public utilities are in a historic transition period. The power industry has stepped into the stage of informatization and deepening reform. At present, power grid financing faces multiple challenges, such as unified standards, regulatory environment and environmental sustainability. After solving the disputes over the route, technology platform and project of industry informatization construction, we actively and quickly cut into the construction of informatization driven business model.

During the Tenth Five Year Plan period, the State Grid, China Southern Power Grid and their related power enterprises launched many new projects, focusing on the digital transformation of power grid and the transformation of old substations. In power enterprises, the focus is on network intelligent control and automation.

Based on the integration of business applications, it brings huge business opportunities to IT enterprises, including infrastructure providers, management software applications, it system integration and service providers. Where are the opportunities for IT enterprises in the information supply chain of the energy industry represented by electric power?

Focusing on smart grid, China soft international has made great achievements. It is reported that since the formal establishment of the energy line Department of China soft international in 2003, it has gained a lot in this field and continuously obtained large orders in the power industry, which has also laid its confidence in cutting into new business fields such as PetroChina and Sinopec in 2014.

China soft international officially announced the acquisition of the power information service business of the State Grid at the end of 2012. This foreshadows the opening up of the energy industry market. As a result, China soft international energy line business has developed rapidly, and the number of employees in its department has grown to 300.

In fact, since China put forward the development plan of building a "strong smart grid" in 2009, China's power grid construction began to fully enter the intelligent era.

The intelligent network power transformation project has been launched in China. The informatization of China's power industry directly transforms the power grid into intelligence and it. Focusing on the rapid improvement of enterprise competitiveness, energy users will shift their investment focus from traditional power grid facilities to ICT embedded energy facilities, and make every effort to build a new and open new power grid system with networking function.

A person in charge of the industry confirmed that the current business focus of the national traditional key energy industry is on energy conservation and emission reduction. Mainly state grid, some enterprises have invested a lot in it.

The energy industry has a wide range of applications. The industry predicts that in the future, the scale of intelligent network in infrastructure will exceed that of the Internet, and its network will become larger than that of existing Telecom supply and service providers. As a result, it service providers continue to pay attention to new energy service areas.

However, the current prominent problem is that in the traditional energy industry represented by electric power, after the implementation of a large number of information projects, both sides are not satisfied with the implementation. Whether to realize the informatization of existing management or scientific management based on informatization has become a difficult problem to be solved for the in-depth development of industry informatization.

At present, intelligent enterprises have become the mainstream demand. With the development of information construction in both electric power and oil, it is urgent to eliminate the isolated island between application systems, get through the poor communication between various departments, and build a unified management portal system.

It can be seen that represented by China's five major power groups, customers' investment in smart grid technology is growing. During the 12th Five Year Plan period, the State Grid invested 500 billion yuan. Smart grid is built on the basis of integrated and high-speed two-way communication network, which aims to make use of advanced sensing and measurement technology, advanced equipment technology, advanced control methods and advanced decision support system technology.

Creating demand for users has become the main direction of energy it enterprises. Help enterprise users make strategic rules, provide users with complete end-to-end solutions, and then carry out implementation, development, operation and maintenance based on the solutions, so as to provide one-stop services for building smart enterprises.

In the overall informatization of the power industry, customers have high requirements for the security, reliability and stability of the system. Under the overall informatization framework of the power grid, it suppliers must make efforts on the integration of internal and external information in the power industry, focus on the life cycle information management at the business level, truly cut into the user's business end and grasp the essence of business services.

It is understood that at present, Si is easy to enter the regional power industry, because local Si is easy to provide after-sales service for local customers. More importantly, they have on-site advantages, are familiar with business, are easy to communicate, and are familiar with customer projects and management systems, which makes their service more user-friendly. Therefore, the after-sales service quality of project operation has become an important weight for local Si to win the power industry.

Similar to informatization in other industries, it investment in energy industry focuses on informatization construction to drive business development. Therefore, it is necessary for it service providers to follow up the complex business of customers and take the road of fine application in software services.

Most it related departments in the industry believe that only it service providers who have cooperated for many years can obtain greater benefits from their investment. In the power industry, the famous Si Nanrui and Nanzi are the representatives. In addition to taking the lead in leading products and technologies, the unique aspect of the two companies is that they have an understanding of the real needs of power enterprises, and it is the key to guide and cultivate customers' scientific management habits. In fact, in the process of customer cultivation, they do not do much integration business, and more benefits actually come from their ability to go deep into specific industry applications. They know customers better than customers in many subdivided fields such as power grid dispatching, substation automation, power grid stability analysis and control, relay protection, power automation and so on, which is the foundation of their lasting survival.
