In order to further promote the development of disruptive technology innovation, widely select and accelerate the cultivation of strategic technologies that disrupt mainstream technologies and reshape the competitive landscape, the Jingjing National Center of Technology Innovation held the 2024 National Disruptive Technology Innovation Competition. This competition focuses on key areas such as integrated circuits and chips, intelligent technology, scientific instruments and new experimental systems, life and health, low carbon energy, advanced manufacturing and future transportation, etc.
Dr. Zhen Huang organized the core technical team of Shanghai NeuPower Co., Ltd. to join hands with Shanghai Jiao Tong University to participate in the competition with the company's main project and the world's leading technology - high-temperature superconducting wind turbine generator and its high-temperature superconducting rotor magnet system. After elaborate preparation of the team, outstanding technical advantages and broad market prospects, our team was invincible and successfully entered the finals. Under the leadership of Dr. Zhen Huang, Shanghai NeuPower first emerged in this competition.
It is reported that this competition adopts the "Olympic Games" mode of "self-run + league", that is, at the same time of selecting projects on your own levels, inviting the winning projects of well-known competitions in the country to participate in the final, and finally bringing together disruptive technology projects with outstanding value and significant technological breakthroughs.
After collecting about 1,400 participating projects in forms of recommendation by the national science and technology authorities, high-tech zones, national technology innovation centers, leading enterprises, well-known investment companies, etc. The field competition was held in July, and finally selected about 100 projects to advance to the national finals.
The Beijing Finals focused on the fields of scientific instruments and new experimental systems, energy resources and environment. Dr. Zhen Huang demonstrated the subversive application of high-temperature superconducting wind turbine generator technology in offshore wind power scenarios to all parties through various means such as presentation, defense and exhibition. Under the guidance of the "Dual Carbon Goal", the global energy system is undergoing unprecedented changes, and offshore wind power is one of the future energy supply ways with great potential. In the era of dividend and high-tech acceleration of the iteration of the present, NeuPower enters into the field of offshore wind power with the world's leading high-temperature superconducting wind turbine generator technology and is taking advantage of the trend. Dr. Zhen Huang's high-temperature superconducting wind turbine technology and its high-temperature superconducting rotor magnet technology break through the shortcomings of traditional permanent magnet direct drive and permanent magnet hybrid drive systems, and will promote the future development of offshore wind turbines towards lightweight, simple and high reliability. This technology will certainly accelerate the pace of the new energy industry of wind power and help the early arrival of carbon neutrality. Participating in the competition for the first time, Dr. Zhen Huang 's project presentation was unanimously recognized by the final’s judges, and also won the favor of a number of investment institutions. In the end, the project lived up to expectations and won the honorary certificate of participation recognition issued by the organizing committee.
Science and technology change the future, innovation leads the future. NeuPower will continues to be committed to wind power energy, pioneering and innovative, polish products with newer, better and more refined technology. NeuPower is going to strive to promote wind power products on the basis of enjoying the dividend of The Times, actively respond to the "dual carbon" policy, and help the progress of the new energy industry, moving forward, not forgetting the original intention, and pushing.
The National Disruptive Technology Innovation Competition is an important project discovery channel for the national disruptive technology innovation key projects. Since 2021, hosted by the Ministry of Science and Technology and Torch Center of Science and Technology, the competition has adhered to the principle of innovation without regard to origin and heroes regardless of origin. The competition has selected a number of excellent projects and outstanding talents with real talent. Some projects have been supported by the national key project of subversive technological innovation, and attracted the active participation of local governments, venture capital, leading enterprises, etc. Good results have been achieved. The competition has become a nationally renowned platform for the integration of innovative elements, the acceleration of technological innovation, the cultivation of innovative talents, and the cultivation of innovative culture. The National Disruptive Technology Innovation Competition launched by the Jingjinji National Center of Technology Innovation is an important platform for discovering and mining disruptive technologies and promoting disruptive technological innovation. The competition project must meet the following four basic conditions:
◎1. Strong scene: The application scenario is a basic and strategic industry in the economy society or a forward-looking scenario that has the potential to become a basic and strategic industry. The main technical functions play a key role in supporting or leading the technical system of the scene.
◎2. Rigid demand: The demand for the proposed service has a large actual or potential scale, and the existing technologies cannot well meet some important requirements of the current or future development or are basically blank, that is, there are important demand pain points.
◎3. Special route: The project belongs to an important cutting-edge technology or a deep crossover new technology with theoretical breakthroughs, and the potential to solve the pain points of demand is significantly better than the existing technology or great potential to disrupt the core advantages of existing technologies. And the project has a very high threshold for anti-subversion.
◎4. Independent title: The project has independent intellectual property rights, strong exclusivity, extensive and full protection, and has the possibility to seize the opportunity and maintain a leading competitive advantage in a long period of time.
