Domestic Lidar Systems Resolve Pain Points in Digital-Intelligent Transformation of the Energy and Power Industry

Policy & Tech Breakthroughs Drive a New Opportunity Period for the Energy & Power Industry

2026-01-16 文章来源：Kyle Optics

The 14th Five-Year Plan sets the direction of "intelligence and greenization". A series of policies such as Several Opinions on Accelerating the Digital and Intelligent Development of Energy have been intensively issued, clarifying the path and injecting impetus into the digital and intelligent transformation of the industry.

Fueled by favorable policies, enterprises are enthusiastic about transformation. However, pain points across the entire fuel management process have become a major obstacle: heavy reliance on manual work leads to low efficiency; metering errors affect costs; potential safety hazards are difficult to predict; and fragmented data hinders collaboration. These issues not only slow down the transformation pace but also restrict the improvement of operational quality.

In response, Yuwei Optics, a national high-tech enterprise and a leader in industrial precision optical sensors, leverages its 100% domestically developed lidar core technology to create a full-process intelligent solution covering "coal intake, storage, transportation, power generation, and operation & maintenance". It precisely addresses these pain points and drives power plant operations to shift from an "experience-driven" model to a "data-driven" new era.

Closed-loop Management of Five Core Processes Bid Farewell to Manual Dependence Across the Entire Process

With 3D lidar perception at its core, Yuwei Optics integrates multi-sensor technology and AI algorithms to build a full-chain intelligent management and control system, enabling unmanned and precise operations across five key processes:

Fuel Intake Management: Unattended Operation & Accurate Verification with Zero Error

It enables unattended operation of car dumpers and ship unloaders, as well as intelligent verification of incoming coal transported by trucks or trains. Through laser scanning and 3D modeling, coal measurement accuracy reaches the centimeter level, completely resolving the problems of slow speed, large errors, and high risks associated with manual measurement. Abnormal vehicles are automatically intercepted, ensuring standardized and safe intake management from the source.

Fuel Storage Management: Dynamic Visualization & Efficient Coal Inventorying

It supports automatic obstacle avoidance for stacker-reclaimers, eliminating collision risks in coal yards. Coal inventory can be completed within minutes, boosting efficiency dozens of times compared to manual methods. Relying on digital twin technology to replicate the coal yard in a 1:1 ratio, it achieves dynamic visualization and controllability of inventory, putting an end to extensive management based on empirical estimation.

Fuel Transportation Scheduling: Unmanned Operation & Full-chain Control with Zero Hidden Risks

It realizes unmanned and precise operation of loaders and ship loaders, combined with intelligent scheduling and fault early warning of belt conveyors. It automatically detects carriage damage and residual coal, ensuring zero spillage, zero delay, and zero hidden risks in transportation, thus guaranteeing efficient and stable operation of the entire chain.

Combustion & Power Generation Support: Intelligent Optimization for Dual Compliance of Efficiency and Environmental Protection

It optimizes coal blending to reduce costs and improve energy efficiency; monitors boiler settlement with millimeter-level precision to detect structural hazards in a timely manner; simultaneously manages bottom ash removal and electrostatic precipitators, ensuring compliance with both efficiency and environmental standards, and adapts to automatic control under full-load operating conditions.

Safety Operation & Maintenance Management: Proactive Prevention & Timely Hidden Hazard Handling

It builds a comprehensive safety monitoring system to realize real-time early warning of coal pile temperature, belt open flame, and gas & dust concentration. Through AI-based proactive hidden hazard identification and linked disposal, it upgrades operation and maintenance from "passive emergency response" to "proactive prevention and control", strengthening the operational safety line.

Domestic Core Strengths Building Industry-leading Capabilities

Independent and Controllable: No Reliance on Foreign Technology：Boasting over 100 patents, including more than 60 authorized invention patents, Yuwei Optics has achieved full independent R&D of lidar hardware, software, and algorithms. It completely breaks free from foreign technological constraints and ensures core technology security.

Stable Performance in Complex Working Conditions：With dust resistance, high and low temperature tolerance, and vibration resistance, it can operate stably 24/7 in harsh working conditions such as coal yards and boiler rooms without interrupting core operations.

Data Closed-loop for Enhanced Efficiency：By deeply integrating lidar, AI, and digital twin technologies, it connects the entire "data collection, analysis, decision-making, and execution" chain, making data a core production factor and improving the scientificity of decision-making.

Seamless Integration with Low Costs：It can quickly connect to mainstream platforms such as fuel management systems and DCS without the need to reconstruct existing systems, featuring a short upgrade cycle, high return on investment, and reduced transformation thresholds.

Dual Endorsement of Policies and Cases Reliable Transformation with Tangible Results

Yuwei Optics' energy and power solutions are highly aligned with the policy guidelines such as the 14th Five-Year Plan, accurately meeting the industry's upgrading needs and winning wide market recognition. The company has successfully served leading enterprises in the energy sector, including China Energy Investment Corporation and China Huadian Corporation. Among these projects, the Hanchuan Power Plant project was even awarded the honor of "Excellent Supplier of Digital Coal Yard". Up to now, the solution has been successfully implemented and verified in dozens of thermal power plants, with the system operating stably and reliably throughout the entire process.

From manual inspection to unattended operation, from empirical judgment to precise analysis, and from passive response to proactive early warning, Yuwei Optics leverages fully localized perception technology to lay a solid foundation for the "efficiency, precision, safety, and intelligence" transformation of the energy and power industry, and fully boosts the coordinated development of intelligence and greenization in the industry.
