Backed by Shishan's strong manufacturing foundation, KYEC has ushered in a new development, but also continue to accelerate the process of “going out” for the enterprise to win more development opportunities. In June this year, KYEC continuously exhibited in Beijing, Guangzhou, to understand the international and domestic photovoltaic, new energy development opportunities; July to August, the enterprise also went to Sao Paulo, Brazil, Manila, Philippines, to participate in the International Electricity and Electronic Components Exhibition, Electricity Exhibition. Through the exhibition, Keyuan not only can understand the latest market development trend and industry cutting-edge information, but also gained more communication opportunities, laying a foundation for the follow-up to win more orders.
Why can the enterprise realize rapid development? “It is not only based on the demand for listing, the enterprise development also needs the diversification of market structure.” In Qi Zixuan's view, this is not unrelated to the enterprise's continuous adjustment of development strategy and increase customer viscosity. At present, the power grid business of Keyuan shares accounts for about 70%, non-grid business accounts for about 30%. Especially in the overseas segment, Keyuan shares in the end of 2022 to obtain the recognition of customers in the Middle East, South America and other places, the introduction of products to replace the original European and American standards, to help the enterprise to obtain tens of millions of dollars of growth at the same time, but also for the enterprise to broaden the path of development.
Based on the traditional power grid business, Keyuan shares also continue to increase investment in the field of intelligent control side. For example, as early as 2018, the enterprise carried out the research and development of power grid monitoring equipment based on the demands and pain points of the power grid, and took the lead in obtaining relevant invention patents. At present, the product has completed the fourth generation of revision, the Department can be applied to the scene of the general-purpose products, more in line with the actual use of customer demand.

This also helps the company to break into a blue sea, realizing a magnificent turn from the traditional mechanical equipment to the solution provider.
Firm digitalization development
Over the years, we have invested more than 25 million yuan
From the single provision of equipment to the output of comprehensive solutions, from the traditional production model to the data on the cloud on the end, Keyuan Stock has found the code for deepening high-quality development - digitalization. In 2022, Keyuan stock and the domestic first-class solution provider Guangzhou Saiyi, Oracle reached a cooperation, the enterprise to carry out a comprehensive digital construction, sales, production, finance “on the cloud”, management “on the cloud”, production efficiency increased by 10% to 20%, and will strive to increase to 40% in the future. Data show that, so far, the source of shares in the application of digital systems, automated production construction has invested more than 25 million yuan. This figure is placed on the volume of about 1 billion yuan of traditional manufacturing enterprises, are a lot of investment.

So far, Keyuan shares in the digitalization system application, automated production construction has been invested more than 25 million yuan. Enterprises for the picture
Why does Keyuan stock firmly implement digitalization? An inescapable reason is that, with the increasing volume of business, labor costs, communication costs continue to rise, and even at a certain stage of processing efficiency obviously can not keep up with the response of all parties tend to be “slow”. In this case, relying solely on the increase in manpower has been difficult to meet the needs of rapid development of enterprises.
To this end, the source of the stock boldly promote reform, customer management system, production management system and other aspects of upgrading and remodeling. Nowadays, in the production workshop of Keyuan Corporation, the workers' team leader will combine PMC instructions for the next day's scheduling; the workers will sweep the code to report their work every day, and the production link will be realized on a day-to-day basis. ...... project scheduling are all based on the information uploaded by the system to be laid out, which effectively improves the production efficiency and reduces the cost of labor and communication. Digitization not only greatly improves the production efficiency of Keyuan, but also allows it to obtain the title of Nanhai District 2022 Manufacturing Quality Development Benchmarking Enterprise and Foshan Nanhai District Digital Benchmarking Enterprise. At present, Keyuan is constantly optimizing its processes and actively declaring Foshan City Digital Factory.
Although certain results have been achieved, but to achieve a high degree of digitization process is not an overnight, not stick to the original work methods, standardized to refresh the staff's perception is not an easy task. At the same time, with the digital transformation to the depths, the enterprise more or less will encounter some phases of the problem, but the source of the company is still determined to digitalization as the enterprise's key direction for a long time to come. “Discover the problem, and then go to solve the problem, so down the road, digitalization can achieve the maximum effectiveness, and better empower the transformation of enterprises.” Chi Zixuan said.
At present, Shishan is adhering to the concept of manufacturing as the development of the home, and strive to build Foshan war new industrial center, Foshan North City Center. At the same time, Shishan also accelerate the traditional industry “two” transformation, accelerate the conversion of old and new kinetic energy. Rooted in Shishan for many years, in addition to responding positively to the digital transformation, Ke Yuan shares are also constantly cultivating internal skills. After 16 years of development, the source of shares has been ten consecutive years to obtain the national high-tech enterprises, long-term persistence, high-intensity focus on R & D investment to ensure that the source of shares in high-tech industries continue to lead the way, but also for more traditional manufacturing industry to accelerate the transformation and upgrading of Shishan to bring inspiration. Data show that after a long time of accumulation, the company has obtained 83 authorized patents, including 10 invention patents, 71 utility model patents, 2 design patents. Another 1 software copyright.
Seize the “double carbon” opportunity
Accelerate the realization of the “North Stock Exchange” listing
In recent years, the state vigorously promote the “dual-carbon” strategy, low-carbon energy transformation has become a new trend of development.
