How NGI has become an "invisible driving force" for six emerging and future industries

At numerous global science and technology conferences this year, the strategic layout of six emerging pillar industries and six future industries has become a global focus. With the accelerated advancement of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, major global economies are continuously increasing their investment in key technologies and high-end manufacturing, driving a reshaping of the industrial competitive landscape.

Currently, the six key emerging industries being developed globally include: integrated circuits, aerospace, biomedicine, low-altitude economy, new energy storage, and intelligent robotics. These industries are becoming important engines driving global economic growth, technological innovation, and industrial upgrading.

Meanwhile, focusing on the next generation of technological high ground, the world is also actively developing six future industry directions, including quantum technology, green hydrogen energy, nuclear fusion, brain-computer interfaces, embody intelligence, and 6G communications.

Data shows that by 2025, the total output value of the six pillar industries has reached nearly RMB 6 trillion, and is expected to exceed RMB 10 trillion by 2030. The “Dual Six Industries” are becoming a core driver of the next wave of technological transformation.

While policy support continues to accelerate industrial growth, one critical yet often overlooked element underpins this progress: electronic test and measurement equipment. It is not only the “benchmark” that defines product performance, but also the “invisible enabler” throughout the entire lifecycle—from R&D and validation to mass production.

As a leading provider of electronic circuit and test & measurement solutions, NGI has been deeply integrated into the global strategic landscape of emerging and future industries. Through long-term expertise, NGI has developed comprehensive testing solutions covering both emerging industries (such as low-altitude economy, energy storage, aerospace, and intelligent robotics) and future industries (including green hydrogen, nuclear fusion, and embodied intelligence), ensuring innovation moves efficiently from concept to application.

Low-Altitude Economy: A “Comprehensive Testing Hub” for Aircraft

The low-altitude economy, driven by eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft) and drones, requires rigorous testing to ensure stability, endurance, and safety.

With high-performance products and full-stack solutions, NGI provides end-to-end testing support—from PCBA and components to complete systems—for leading global companies in this sector.

Aerospace: Enabling High-Reliability Performance for Critical Components

Aerospace has always demanded extremely stringent testing standards. This year, the industry has been officially included in the list of strategic emerging pillar industries that are key areas for global development. By 2030, the number of satellites in orbit is expected to exceed 20,000, with the industry targeting a scale of RMB 10 trillion.

NGI has developed full-chain testing solutions covering primary power, power control, power conversion, and load systems. With high precision and stability, these solutions support the entire lifecycle of commercial aerospace products—from development to production.

New Energy Storage: Globally Compatible, Full-Scenario Testing

As new energy storage enters a high-quality development phase, safety and performance validation have become critical. The industry is shifting from installation-driven growth to efficiency-driven growth, placing higher demands on lifecycle reliability.

NGI has launched the NES6100 energy storage BMS testing system based on the latest global industry standards. It supports major global standards across China, North America, and Europe, and covers lithium-ion, flow batteries, and lead-acid systems. The solution has been adopted by over 60% of national standard drafting organizations, including CATL and Sungrow.

In addition, NGI’s portfolio—featuring high-power bidirectional power supplies, ultra-stable DC sources, and high-voltage electronic loads—provides a solid safety foundation for energy storage batteries and PCS applications.

Intelligent Robotics: Strengthening Reliability at Scale

Intelligent robots are rapidly expanding into homes, hotels, and industrial environments. However, issues such as battery overheating, reduced endurance, and controller failures remain major reliability risks.

NGI focuses on reliability validation during mass production, providing efficient testing solutions for core components such as battery protection boards, motors, batteries, and controller PCBAs. These solutions have been widely deployed by leading global manufacturers, helping products evolve from “functional” to “reliable.”

Green Hydrogen: A “Safety Inspector” for Electrolysis Systems

Hydrogen energy relies on fuel cells and water electrolysis. Accurate and high-speed voltage monitoring of hundreds or thousands of individual cells within a stack is critical across R&D, production, and operation.

NGI has developed the N1200 multi-channel high-performance voltage acquisition system. Its modular isolated architecture addresses high common-mode voltage challenges, while FPGA-based parallel control enables high-speed synchronous acquisition. With industrial-grade reliability, it is widely used in electrolyzer and fuel cell testing.

NGI also provides high-performance source and load testing solutions for fuel cells (single cells and stacks), hydrogen engines, and DC-DC modules.

Nuclear Fusion: Supporting the “Artificial Sun” with Stable Power

Nuclear fusion is widely regarded as the ultimate energy source and is transitioning from laboratory research to engineering and industrialization. With strong policy support, the localization of high-end test equipment is becoming increasingly important.

NGI continues to invest heavily in R&D, developing high-stability, low-ripple test power supplies suitable for applications such as particle accelerators and controlled nuclear fusion, strengthening core technological capabilities.

Embodied Intelligence: Powering the Physical Form of AI

Embodied intelligence represents a key step for AI moving from perception to action, but faces challenges such as data scarcity and safety concerns. The reliability of physical AI systems depends on stable underlying electronics.

NGI has proactively deployed testing solutions for embodied intelligence, including high-precision battery simulators, high-speed data acquisition platforms, and low-ripple DC power supplies. These solutions ensure reliable real-world operation and support the transition from demonstration to practical deployment.

From low-altitude airspace to outer space, from macro-scale power grids to micro-scale chips, every breakthrough in emerging industries relies on the support of test and measurement technologies.

Regardless of how industries evolve, safe, precise, and reliable testing remains the essential bridge from concept to product.

This is NGI’s mission: to drive innovation, deliver precise and reliable products, and provide efficient professional services—making testing simpler.

Looking ahead, NGI will continue to support emerging industries from early-stage development to large-scale deployment, acting as an indispensable “invisible enabler” behind high-quality economic growth.
