development strategies for many
countries.
Each of these countries has put
forward plans, draw up goals and
actions for IOT.
•
Yet, there are no specific supports
and policies to legislate Internet of
Things.
There are initial industry chain with
clear roles defined for each sector.
Key multi-national players are taking
the lead to anchor the value chain.
•
A win-win business model within the
value chain has to be developed
High cost
No economy of scale yet – many
companies are still young and small.
Terminal: Radio-frequency

Operator – Current Hurdles
Products
• Most products and services are in pilot and R&D stage:
• Operators all have their blue prints of comprehensive product
applications system; however, most products are in pilot and
R&D stage with only few location and monitoring applications
are available for promotion.
• These available products are only promoted locally in related
cities, and not nationwide launch.
Conclusion
• No intense competition
on industry chain
Promotion
• Promotion and pilot areas are concentrated in 8 major cities:
• Currently, business promotion and pilot areas are mainly
concentrated in Beijing, Shanghai, Wuxi, Hangzhou,
Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Wuhan, and Chongqing.
• Products are being promoted by categories and regions.
consumer – northeast, agricultural – northwest and industrial –
southeast.
Profitability
• No large scale applications yet:
• Currently, applications are catered to single region or province,
and single corporation – no nation-wide or industry-wide
application yet.
• Even the scale of CMCC has only 3 million users and RMB40.7
ARPU, indicating a very early stage business development.
6/10/2011

• Currently, operators
need:
• to clarify their own
positioning on
industry chain,
• to improve their core
abilities and
capabilities, and
• to strengthen their
influence in the
development of the
whole IOT industry.

Case Study 3: Intelligent Power Substation
•
On Dec. 30, 2010, the first 220 KV intelligent substation of State
Grid, Xijing intelligent substation, was put into operation in
Wuxi. The substation:
• Is the first to realize an integration of Internet of Things technology and high
voltage controlling technology.
• Has established a sensor monitoring and controlling network with the
technology of Internet of Things, installing 395 sensors including water
sensor, smoke sensor, temperature and humidity sensor, 55 sets of highdefinition cameras and 2 sets of thermal infrared imaging cameras, as well
as audible and visual alarm and other facilities, which realizes the
integration application and forms an intelligent routing inspection system
together with on-line monitoring system for power equipment in substation.
• Allows far away monitoring center to see the work condition of equipment in
the substation at any time, which ensures an instant diagnosis and
settlement on abnormal occurrence, thus to reduce the times for periodic
repair and power-off.
• Is the first in China to apply full optical fiber current sensors for the entire
substation, and to provide overall and quality sample data for maintenance,
measure and metering.
• Is also energy saving, applying several technologies in information and
telecommunication that saves a great deal of cables and communication
cables – the way of placing-in-place has saved 44% rooms for screens in
the secondary equipment rooms and 30% cable materials in the substation.
