On May 16, 2024, Smart Power System (SPS), a Taiwanese startup specializing in AI-driven energy management systems (EMS), hosted the “Smart Power Day – Advanced Energy Solutions Seminar” in Taipei. The event focused on the role of EMS in enhancing grid resilience, particularly highlighting how grid-tied energy storage systems rapidly stabilized Taiwan’s power grid during the April 3 Hualien earthquake, preventing widespread outages.

SPS, founded in 2019 by a team from National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, has become a leading EMS provider in Taiwan, executing over 40 projects on Taipower’s Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) platform. Their solutions integrate AI, software, and electrical engineering to offer comprehensive services, including energy storage integration, photovoltaic-ESS systems, microgrids, and predictive maintenance for electromechanical equipment.

The seminar featured industry experts discussing the challenges of increasing renewable energy integration and the need for grid modernization. SPS showcased its AI-enhanced EMS capabilities, emphasizing their adaptability to various hardware and regulatory requirements, and their commitment to supporting Taiwan’s transition to net-zero emissions.
