WUHU, China, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — When the thrill of speed meets the strength of collaboration, and when cutting-edge technology connects with the warmth of an ecosystem, an annual celebration of future mobility is ready to begin. From October 17 to 21, 2025, under the theme “CO-CREATE • CO-DEFINE,” the Chery International User Summit will officially kick off. More than just a dialogue between the brand and its users, it will be a comprehensive showcase of innovation, ecosystem synergy, and global vision. How will Chery define the Chery Ecosystem 2.0 together with global users through product co-creation, communication co-creation and ecological co-creation? It will be announced on site.

Last October, the 2024 Chery International User Summit fully demonstrated Chery’s strong commitment to innovation, sustainable development, and global cooperation.

Building on this momentum, the upcoming International User Summit will bring the new needs and expectations of global users for future travel, upgrading the Chery ecosystem to version 2.0, and a more open and collaborative model will bring unprecedented participation experience to global users.

As ranked No.1 passenger vehicle exporter among Chinese brands for 22 consecutive years, and with more than 17.44 million users worldwide, Chery Group has always put users at the center, continuously pushing the boundaries of technological innovation and ecosystem development. This summit will break away from the traditional one-way release format by inviting influential international leaders, global user representatives, industry partners, pioneers, and leading global media to participate. With a focus on user co-creation, product co-definition, technology co-witnessing, and ecosystem co-building, create a series of interactive scenes, it will truly embody the vision of a future mobility ecosystem defined and co-created with users.

It is worth looking forward to that the world’s latest generation of hybrid vehicles will also be unveiled at the event, where global media and users will jointly witness Chery’s leading technological capabilities in hybrid technology. China’s smart manufacturing prowess in the new energy sector will be fully demonstrated.

Meanwhile, AiMOGA Robotics, under Chery, will once again make an upgraded debut at the conference. As an integral member of Chery’s ecosystem, AiMOGA Robotics will present itself as A Trusted Intelligent Assistant for Humanity, demonstrating scenario-based functions, global applications, and sustainable business value that redefine human–robot collaboration.

It is worth noting that this summit will also continue to highlight Chery’s commitment to social responsibility and sustainable development. In recent years, Chery Group has achieved remarkable results in the ESG field, being listed on the 2025 Forbes China ESG Influence List and recognized as the only automotive company included in the 2024-2025 Forbes China Sustainable Industrial Enterprises List. At last year’s User Summit, Chery also joined hands with its ecological partners to initiate and establish the ESG Alliance, working together to fulfill social responsibilities and jointly create a better future.

From technological breakthroughs to ecosystem symbiosis, from user co-creation to global collaboration, the 2025 Chery International User Summit is not only an innovation-driven event for the automotive industry but also a preview of the future of people, cars, and life. When the passion of global users converges with Chery’s technological foundation, and when the boundaries of the ecosystem expand through co-creation, the infinite possibilities of future mobility await to be written by every participant.

October 17 – 21 — Join Chery International in welcoming the next era of mobility.

All-Scenario Grid Forming Technology, Accelerating Wind and Solar as Main Power

SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The 3rd International Digital Energy Expo (IDEE) officially kicks off in Shenzhen today, bringing together industry leaders, representatives from organizations and think tanks, industry experts, customers, and partners from around the world. Throughout the event, participants will engage in discussions on cutting-edge industry trends, new technology applications, and benchmark business practices, working together to advance the high-quality development of the digital energy industry. At the opening ceremony, Mr. Zhou Jianjun, Vice President of Huawei and President of Global Marketing, Sales and Services of Huawei Digital Power, delivered a speech titled “All-Scenario Grid Forming Technology, Accelerating Wind and Solar as Main Power.” He noted that carbon neutrality has shifted from a consensus to an action, and the rapid increase in wind and PV penetration rate weakens the power grid and introduces two significant challenges to power systems: high proportions of both renewable energy and power electronics equipment. Leveraging ongoing technological innovation and expertise, Huawei is enhancing its grid forming capabilities across various scenarios to facilitate the construction of a stable new power system. This effort aims to accelerate wind and solar as main power, starting a new era of all-scenario grid forming.

As a technology provider and enabler, Huawei has spent over a decade advancing research in grid forming technologies. By championing the transition from grid following and grid supporting to grid forming, Huawei remains at the forefront of industry development. By integrating self-developed basic hardware (power device that features high overload capacity and reliability; digital control device that features high intelligence and high computing power), architecture (highly available string architecture and highly safe two-stage power architecture), and algorithms (smart grid forming algorithms), Huawei has built six key grid forming capabilities for power generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption to promote the evolution from ESS grid forming to PV+ESS grid forming. These capabilities encompass the following: short circuit level, virtual inertia support, wideband oscillation damping, fast primary frequency response, minute-level black start, and seamless on/off-grid transition.

Grid forming technologies have been widely used and commercially deployed globally, setting up benchmarks for global green transitions. In the Middle East, near the Red Sea coast, Huawei’s grid forming technologies have helped the customer establish the world’s largest microgrid powered by 100% renewable energy. Operating reliably for two years, this microgrid has successfully withstood short circuits caused by severe weather, ensuring reliable power supply. In the 30 MW PV+6 MW/24 MWh ESS project in Xizang, China, Huawei has helped the customer deploy the grid forming ESS solution in a high-altitude, extremely cold, and weak grid environment. The solution increases the PV output from 1.5 MW to 12 MW. Compared with other solutions in the industry, Huawei’s solution integrates 75% more energy, greatly improving the project revenue. The world’s largest integrated PV+ESS project has kicked off in the Philippines, setting the stage for bridging the energy divide. It includes 3.5 GW PV systems and 4.5 GWh grid forming ESSs. Leveraging Huawei’s GW-level PV+ESS coordinated control and plant-level black start technologies, the project can provide a constant power output for 13 hours per day.

Huawei is committed to leading digital and intelligent technology innovation in the industry. It has created the industry’s first “device-edge-cloud” full-link synergy for PV+ESS intelligence. This enables full-lifecycle intelligent management of power plants, realizing less-attended or even unattended O&M and maximizing revenue from power trading. Through the deep integration of AI into the entire process of planning, construction, maintenance, and operation, the implementation and design errors of engineering construction are reduced by 40%, the O&M efficiency is improved by 50%, and the operation revenue is increased by more than 10%. This helps customers build safe, efficient, and intelligent renewable energy plants, propelling the industry toward a new era of automation.

High quality is critical to industry sustainability. Huawei Digital Power always prioritizes quality and strives for success through excellence. With systematic, process-driven capabilities and an end-to-end quality strategy, Huawei incorporates high-quality standards throughout the product lifecycle, from demand definition and material management to production and delivery, consistently creating greater value for customers.

Huawei Digital Power will continue to work with industry authorities, power grid operators, industry associations, and standards organizations to improve industry standards, optimize the power market mechanism, and promote the large-scale, standardized, and high-quality development of the industry, accelerating wind and solar as main power.

KIO Data Centers drives the future of data security with strategic alliance with space-based data center operator, Lonestar

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — KIO Data Centers, the leading digital infrastructure provider in Mexico and Latin America, has announced a strategic alliance with Lonestar Data Holdings, a pioneer in space-based data storage. This collaboration creates one of the first-of-its-kind hybrid data ecosystem, with KIO’s terrestrial facilities acting as ‘digital consulates’ that securely connect with Lonestar’s ‘data embassies’ in space. This initiative marks a historic milestone in data security and sovereignty, with KIO serving as the critical ground infrastructure for protecting humanity’s most valuable data beyond the limits of Earth.

“This alliance with Lonestar is much more than a technological agreement: it cements KIO DC as the organization that sets the pace for global innovation. Our data centers will act as the bridge between Earth and space, affirming the region as a key player in a new digital era.” said Octavio Camarena, CEO of KIO Data Centers. “Our mission has always been to protect our clients’ most valuable information, and today we are taking that promise to a cosmic dimension, reaffirming our commitment to security, sustainability, and data sovereignty.”

With this project, KIO DC becomes the first company in Latin America to actively support data storage in space, reinforcing its role as a key player in the new digital era.

“We chose KIO DC because of its world-class, resilient, secure, and sustainable infrastructure. Its high standards of availability and renewable energy operations, along with its leadership in the Latin American digital ecosystem, make KIO DC the ideal partner to bring our vision to life: protecting and securing humanity’s most valuable data beyond the limits of Earth,” said Chris Stott, CEO of Lonestar Data Holdings.

This project addresses an undeniable reality: more than 402 quintillion bytes of data are generated daily, and the volume doubles every six weeks. Around 63% of this information is sensitive and regulated – financial, medical, or governmental – making secure and sustainable solutions indispensable. This partnership provides a unique, off-planet solution. Storing data in space offers a new level of security, shielding it from real-time cyberattacks, natural disasters, and even physical surveillance. This approach ensures data sovereignty by aligning with national regulatory requirements and offers regional accessibility from space.

Project Phases: A Roadmap to the New Digital Frontier

  • Stage 1: Cislunar Orbit: The initial step involves establishing a ground station antenna to connect with a satellite in a cislunar orbit, enabling continuous, secure data transmission to space-based storage.
  • Stage 2: Lunar Data Centers: The long-term vision is to build data centers within the natural lava tubes or craters on the lunar surface, leveraging the moon’s geology for data protection and resilience.

Lonestar has validated this vision with successful tests on the International Space Station (2021–2022) along with the first commercial lunar data center hardware during the Freedom mission (2025). Capacity is set to grow from 15 PB in 2027 to 400 PB by 2032, with expansion plans toward exabytes and yottabytes on the Moon supported by SpaceX Starships.

With Lonestar, KIO’s mission to protect their clients’ information, now expands to a cosmic dimension, reaffirming its commitment to innovation, security, and sustainability. This alliance embodies KIO’s purpose of disrupting human limits through technology, ushering in a new era in the protection of humanity’s digital legacy.

Policy Address by Hong Kong SAR’s Chief Executive John Lee: Building an international hub for business, investment and new industries


HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 September 2025 – Hong Kong’s Chief Executive, John Lee, in his 2025 Policy Address announced yesterday (September 17) set out a range of measures to diversify Hong Kong’s economy and reinforce the city’s status as an international hub for business, investment and new industrialisation.

“Backed by strong national support and a high degree of global connectivity, Hong Kong is recognised worldwide as an international centre in finance, trade and shipping, as well as in aviation, legal services and dispute resolution,” Mr Lee said. “The Government will fully leverage these institutional strengths to consolidate Hong Kong’s status as a premier international hub.”

Hong Kong SAR's Chief Executive John Lee attended the Legislative Council of Hong Kong SAR’s question and answer session on his 2025 Policy Address

To cement Hong Kong’s position as a leading global financial centre, Mr Lee said the Government’s strategy would include deepening the equity market, expanding a world-class bond market and a vibrant currency market, while advancing the insurance, asset and wealth management sectors. Key initiatives include:

  • Leveraging the Technology Enterprises Channel to assist Mainland technology enterprises in raising funds in Hong Kong, exploring shortening the stock settlement cycle to T+1, and encouraging more overseas enterprises to seek secondary listing in Hong Kong;
  • Further consolidating Hong Kong’s position as a bond market hub with a view to fostering interplay between various mutual market access mechanisms, establishing connections with markets such as Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates, and promoting the use of offshore Chinese Government Bonds as collateral in different clearing houses to further enrich the use cases of RMB assets; and
  • Enhancing the liquidity and global reach of the offshore RMB market in Hong Kong, including Government issuing more RMB bonds, and consider settling government expenditure in RMB under suitable circumstances.

“We will also expedite the development of new growth areas, building a premier international gold trading market, driving the development of fintech, as well as promoting green and sustainable finance,” Mr Lee said.

Initiatives on building an international gold trading market include establishing gold storage facilities, encouraging gold traders to set up or expand their refineries in Hong Kong, establishing a central clearing system for gold and offering a greater variety of gold investment vehicles by assisting issuers in issuing gold funds, and support the development of new investment products such as tokenised gold.

To boost Hong Kong’s status as an international trade centre, the Chief Executive said the Government would deepen international economic and trade networks by exploring the signing of new investment agreements with overseas economies, expanding the city’s network of Economic and Trade Offices around the world with an office to be established in Kuala Lumpur this year, and promoting the digitalisation of trade.

“Under ‘One Country, Two Systems’, Hong Kong enjoys the unique advantages of attracting overseas enterprises and assisting Mainland enterprises to go global,” Mr Lee said. “In the past, we focused primarily on bringing in enterprises, achieving remarkable growth and success. The new opportunities ahead for Hong Kong, however, will come from helping Mainland enterprises expand abroad.”

The Chief Executive said he would establish a one‑stop platform by mobilising Hong Kong’s overseas offices as well as Hong Kong offices in the Mainland, and set up the Task Force on Supporting Mainland Enterprises in Going Global (GoGlobal Task Force) to encourage Mainland enterprises to use Hong Kong in expanding their businesses overseas.

“With the sustained growth in the output of new industries, the Government will step up its efforts to nurture emerging industries locally and attract those from outside Hong Kong, promoting the diversified development of our economy,” Mr Lee said.

The Financial Secretary, Paul Chan, said in a press conference today (September 18) on the 2025 Policy Address, that attracting enterprises to set up and develop in Hong Kong is a crucial component of the city’s industry development and reform, and Hong Kong needs to formulate preferential policy packages to achieve this.

To foster the life and health technology research sector, the Government will attract more pharmaceutical companies to set up operations in Hong Kong to conduct clinical trials and medical treatments for rare disease drugs, high‑end cancer drugs and advanced therapy products, and set up the Hong Kong Centre for Medical Products Regulation.

To promote the development of the new energy industry, the Government will develop a sustainable aviation fuel industry chain, develop the GBA Hydrogen Corridor in collaboration with the Guangdong Province, and push forward the construction of Hong Kong’s first large‑scale electric vehicle (EV) battery recycling facility at the EcoPark, which is expected to commence operation in the first half of 2026.

“Today, Hong Kong is at the critical juncture of advancing from stability to prosperity,” Mr Lee said. “We are moving through an irreversible economic transition, but it is an essential process for a stronger and more robust economy in the future.”
