Introduction: Two enterprise developments that came into view from late August to early September are located at both ends of the industry chain: one end is Beijing's semiconductor companies entering the global open source community, and the other end is Chinese photovoltaic companies completing grid connection and delivery in the South American Strong Wind Corridor. By reading in parallel, one can see the same main thread - Chinese enterprises are using the technological foundation of "smart intelligence" and the organizational approach of "open collaboration" to transform carbon peak and carbon neutrality from goals into deliverable, replicable, and shareable engineering practices.
Openness of Technology Base: Making Energy Saving a Shared Infrastructure - Zhaoyi Innovations Joins Zephyr Hosted by the Linux Foundation ® The project has officially become Zephyr ® Double Silver Member of the Project and Linux Foundation. It is commendable that this is not a mere gesture of joining: the engineering team has already carried out the adaptation development of GD32 MCU for Zephyr Project in the internal code repository, completing SoC, BSP drivers, and board level support for multiple series of MCUs. Developers can directly obtain code from GD32's GitHub repository, and the team continues to contribute code and technical support to the Zephyr community.
The low-carbon content of this matter is often underestimated. With the continuous development of the Internet of Things, industrial control, smart homes, and wearable devices, embedded products have put forward higher requirements for the openness, portability, and development efficiency of software ecosystems; The first screw of energy conservation and emission reduction is often screwed onto MCU - the precise speed regulation of devices, on-demand start stop of homes, and ultra-low power management of wearable devices are all determined by this control core to shape the energy consumption curve. When mainstream open-source RTOS standardizes and makes these capabilities portable, energy saving is no longer a craft that each enterprise explores individually, but becomes a shared infrastructure for the entire industry. Behind the improvement of development efficiency is the overall downward shift in energy consumption of end products, which is also a prerequisite for the large-scale implementation of "low-carbon living". Zhaoyi Innovation adheres to the concept of open collaboration, promotes the deep integration of domestic MCUs with the global mainstream open source ecosystem, and enables the positive superposition of technology inclusiveness and green development.
【引言】8 月底至 9 月初进入视野的两则企业动态,分处产业链两端:一端是北京的半导体企业走进全球开源社区,一端是中国光伏企业在南美强风走廊完成并网交付。并置阅读,却能看到同一条主线——中国企业正以「智慧智能」的技术底座和「开放协作」的组织方式,把碳达峰、碳中和从目标转化为可交付、可复制、可共享的工程实践。
【技术底座的开放:让节能成为可共享的基础设施】兆易创新加入由 Linux 基金会托管的 Zephyr® 项目,正式成为 Zephyr® 项目与 Linux 基金会双银牌会员。值得称道的是,这并非姿态性加入:工程团队已在内部代码仓库开展 GD32 MCU 面向 Zephyr Project 的适配开发,完成多个系列 MCU 的 SoC、BSP 驱动及板级支持,开发者可直接从 GD32 的 GitHub 仓库获取代码,团队也持续向 Zephyr 社区贡献代码与技术支持。
这件事的低碳含量,往往被低估。随着物联网、工业控制、智能家居、可穿戴设备的持续发展,嵌入式产品对软件生态的开放性、可移植性与开发效率提出了更高要求;而节能减排的第一颗螺丝钉,恰恰常常拧在 MCU 上——设备的精细调速、家居的按需启停、穿戴设备的超低功耗管理,都由这颗控制核心决定能耗曲线的形状。当主流开源 RTOS 把这些能力标准化、可移植化,节能就不再是每家企业各自摸索的手艺,而成为整个产业可共享的基础设施。开发效率提升的背后,是终端产品能耗的整体下移,也是「低碳生活」规模化落地的前提。兆易创新秉持开放协作理念,推动国产 MCU 与全球主流开源生态深度融合,让技术普惠与绿色发展正向叠加。
The wisdom of engineering sites: using algorithms to generate 10% more zero carbon electricity. Another dynamic comes from faraway Argentina. Tianhe Tracking's 64MW photovoltaic project, located in the 345MW Valle de la Puerta wind solar hybrid power station in La Rioja Province, has officially been connected to the grid. This is an important component of Argentina's first large-scale "wind solar hybrid" power station. La Rioja Province has abundant sunshine resources, but is located in a typical strong wind and drought corridor with undulating terrain and extremely high wind speeds, which puts strict requirements on the structural durability of photovoltaic equipment; Stacking photovoltaic tracking brackets inside the already built wind farm also requires dealing with unstable challenges such as static torsional divergence and dynamic torsional galloping caused by strong winds.
The answer given by Tianhe Tracking is "high reliability bracket" plus "intelligent algorithm": the Pioneer 1P intelligent tracking bracket system is equipped with a patented bilateral hydraulic damping system, combined with a large R-angle square tube main beam to enhance wind resistance and structural stability; Equipped with patented spherical bearings with 30% angle adjustment capability, enhancing terrain and structural adaptability; The system is equipped with a self-developed SuperTrack intelligent control algorithm, which can increase power generation by up to 8% compared to traditional astronomical algorithms. It also has extreme weather forecasting function, which can predict strong winds, hail, and heavy rainfall in advance, adjust components to the optimal shelter angle in a timely manner, and reduce the risk of structural damage. The localization service team also provides full process services from early planning to system debugging.
There are two layers of value worth reading carefully here. Firstly, wind solar complementarity transforms the volatility of single wind power generation into multi energy complementary output, efficiently synergizes with the wind power assets already built in the power station, and improves the stability and transmission efficiency of the local power grid - this is a key leap for new energy from pursuing "installed capacity" to providing "reliable electricity". Secondly, an 8% increase in power generation means that the same amount of land and materials can produce nearly 10% more zero carbon electricity, which is a typical example of "using wisdom to reduce emissions". Land resources are also being treated more intensively: stacking photovoltaics within existing wind farms, allowing the same green space to carry dual clean production capacity, is exactly the idea that green space users should promote - not competing with nature for land, but seeking space for efficiency.
【工程现场的智慧:用算法多要出一成零碳电力】另一则动态来自遥远的阿根廷。天合跟踪位于拉里奥哈省 345MW Valle de la Puerta 风光互补复合电站中的 64MW 光伏项目正式并网,这是阿根廷首个大型「风光互补」复合电站的重要组成部分。拉里奥哈省日照资源充沛,却处在典型的强风干旱走廊,地形起伏、风速极高,对光伏设备的结构耐久性提出严苛要求;在已建成的风电场内部叠加光伏跟踪支架,还要应对强风带来的静扭转发散、动扭转驰振等不稳定挑战。
天合跟踪给出的答案是「高可靠支架」加「智能算法」:开拓者 1P 智能跟踪支架系统装备专利双边液压阻尼系统,结合大 R 角方管主梁提升抗风韧性与结构稳定;配备具有 30% 角度调节能力的专利球形轴承,增强地形与结构适应力;系统搭载自研 SuperTrack 智能控制算法,相较传统天文算法可提升高达 8% 的发电量,并具备极端天气预报功能,能提前预判大风、冰雹、强降雨,及时把组件调整至最佳避风角度,降低结构损坏风险。本土化服务团队还提供了从前期规划到系统调试的全流程服务。
这里有两层值得细读的价值。其一,风光互补把单一风能发电的波动性转化为多能互补出力,与电站内已建成的风电资产高效协同,提升当地电网的稳定性与输电效率——这是新能源从追求「装机规模」走向提供「可依赖电量」的关键一跃。其二,8% 的发电量增益意味着同样的土地与材料可多产出近一成零碳电力,是典型的「用智慧换减排」。土地资源也被更集约地对待:在既有风电场内部叠层光伏,让同一片绿色空间承载双重清洁产能,这正是绿色空间使用者值得推广的思路——不与自然争地,而向效率要空间。
The Power of Collaboration: From Code Dialogue to Industry Dialogue "Two pieces of news point together to an easily overlooked element: collaboration. Zhaoyi Innovation has chosen open source community-based collaboration to promote the integration of more chip support into the Zephyr mainline, participate in domestic ecological co construction, and work together with industry partners to improve ecological infrastructure; Tianhe Tracking has chosen a long-term partnership collaboration - the cooperation with Argentine energy company PEA will be further deepened after the successful delivery of the Arauco Solar I project, and PEA will continue to choose Tianhe Solar in subsequent photovoltaic projects. The former is a 'dialogue at the code level', while the latter is an 'dialogue at the industry level', essentially the same: carbon neutrality is never a solo performance of a single enterprise, it requires the free flow of standards, experience, and trust between enterprises. This also confirms the value of carbon neutrality dialogue and collaboration platforms among enterprises - when technology solutions, scenario data, and implementation experience can be placed on the same table, the marginal cost of carbon reduction will continue to decrease.
[Outlook] Following these two developments, it is reasonable to expect extensions in three directions. One is that the openness of the technology base continues to accelerate: Zhaoyi Innovation stated that in the future, it will complete the adaptation of more GD32 MCU products and contribute to the upstream community. The open ecosystem will enable green technology to spread faster. Secondly, the "intelligent premium" of new energy engineering is becoming more apparent: tracking algorithms, meteorological prediction, and structural reliability are becoming the main competition tracks for electricity cost per kilowatt hour. Tianhe Tracking also clearly stated that it will continue to assist regional power operators in building smarter and lower cost wind solar complementary facilities. The third is that the green capabilities of Chinese enterprises are integrated into the global industrial division of labor in a more mature way - not just delivering products, but exporting solutions, standards, and services together.
Peak carbon emissions and carbon neutrality are a long run that requires patience. It occurs not only on the upright brackets in the strong wind corridor of South America, but also in the driver code submitted by developers line by line. As more and more companies are willing to open up their key capabilities and maintain long-term partnerships, low-carbon is no longer just a cost item, but a common growth curve. These two pieces of news are the clear and solid coordinates on this curve.
【协作的力量:从代码对话到产业对话】两则新闻共同指向一个容易被忽略的要素:协作。兆易创新选择的是开源社区式协作——推动更多芯片支持合入 Zephyr 主线,参与国内生态共建,与产业伙伴共同完善生态基础设施;天合跟踪选择的是长期伙伴式协作——与阿根廷能源企业 PEA 的合作在 Arauco Solar I 项目成功交付后进一步深化,PEA 将在后续光伏项目中继续选择天合光能。前者是「代码层面的对话」,后者是「产业层面的对话」,本质一致:碳中和从不是一家企业的独奏,它需要标准、经验与信任在企业之间自由流动。这也印证了企业间碳中和对话与协作平台的价值——当技术方案、场景数据与落地经验能摆在同一张桌上,减碳的边际成本才会持续下降。
【展望】顺着这两则动态,可以合理期待三个方向的延展。一是技术底座的开放化继续加速:兆易创新表示未来将完成更多 GD32 MCU 产品的适配与上游社区贡献,开放生态会让绿色技术扩散得更快。二是新能源工程的「智能化溢价」更加明显:跟踪算法、气象预判与结构可靠性正在成为度电成本竞争的主赛道,天合跟踪也明确将持续助力区域电力运营商打造更智能、更低度电成本的风光互补设施。三是中国企业的绿色能力以更成熟的方式融入全球产业分工——不止于交付产品,而是把方案、标准与服务一起输出。
碳达峰、碳中和是一场需要耐心的长跑。它既发生在南美强风走廊里一根根挺立的支架上,也发生在开发者一行行提交的驱动代码里。当越来越多企业愿意把关键能力开放出来、把长期伙伴关系经营下去,低碳便不再只是成本项,而成为共同的增长曲线。这两则消息,正是这条曲线上清晰而扎实的两个坐标。
