This Spring Festival, more and more green elements have been integrated into people’s basic necessities of life and consumer services, and green and low-carbon production and lifestyle have become a new holiday trend.
Lankao, Henan Province: Promoting Green to Replace Zero-carbon Villages for the New Year.
Lankao, Henan Province is the first pilot county of rural energy revolution in China. In recent years, through the pilot construction of the energy revolution, the villages here have promoted the substitution of green electricity, created application scenarios of zero-carbon villages, and brought new life patterns to the villagers.
This year, the villagers in Fulou Village, Sanyizhai Township also ushered in the first New Year after zero-carbon reconstruction. Let’s go and see what the green and low-carbon New Year in the village looks like.
During the Spring Festival, Fulou Village held its own "Village Evening", and the villagers made photovoltaic engineering in the village into an Allegro program to describe their new experiences in life. When the reporter came to the home of Li Xianju, a villager, he was catching up to prepare dinner.
Gu Junling, CCTV reporter at reception desk: This is an electric vehicle charging station integrating wind, light, storage, charging and discharging. We can see that there is a fan above and photovoltaic panels below. This charging pile is a two-way charging and discharging. In addition to charging the car, this car can also be turned into a big charging treasure to supply power to the village in the opposite direction during the peak electricity consumption in the village.
Not only that, in the photovoltaic corridor just built in the village, this pond with clear water quality turned out to be a sewage treatment pond. All the domestic sewage in the village is here, and it is treated by photovoltaic green electricity into reclaimed water that meets the standard. The lanterns and landscape lights in the promenade are also powered by green electricity emitted by photovoltaics.
On this new energy information platform of the village Committee, the real-time operation of new energy devices in the village is clear at a glance. The total installed capacity of photovoltaic power generation projects in the whole village has exceeded 1000 kilowatts, reducing carbon emissions by nearly 1000 tons.
Yichang, Hubei: Pure electric cruise ships are popular. Green tours of the Yangtze River are popular.
"Yangtze Three Gorges 1" is a pure electric cruise ship with the largest electric capacity in the world at present, which is mainly used for tourist routes such as night tours of the Yangtze River.
During the Spring Festival holiday, the popularity of the "Three Gorges of the Yangtze River No.1" exploded, and many tourists came to Yichang, Hubei Province to take this green cruise ship and "punch in" the green Yangtze River at close range, feeling a different taste of the year.
At 8: 30 in the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, the "Yangtze Three Gorges 1", loaded with 1,300 tourists, started its maiden voyage in the Year of the Loong. It departed from the Three Gorges Tourist Center in Yichang City and headed for the Sandouping Tourist Center located downstream of the Three Gorges Dam. On the cruise ship, festive lanterns, window grilles and other decorations can be seen everywhere, and the eyes are full of China red, which is full of flavor.
It is understood that the "Yangtze Three Gorges 1" is 100 meters long, 16.3 meters wide and 4 meters deep, and can accommodate 1,300 people. It is independently developed by China, and it is currently a pure electric cruise ship with the largest electric capacity in the world, and it is also a green ship that truly realizes "zero pollution and zero emission". During the Spring Festival this year, it is estimated that the ship’s reception capacity will reach 15,000 passengers, which is 25% higher than last year’s Spring Festival holiday.
On this green ship, while feeling the rich flavor of the year, tourists passed through Gezhouba, the first dam of the Yangtze River, experienced the shock of "a rising tide lifts all boats" and learned about the development footprint of green and clean energy in China; Crossing the Xiling Gorge against the current, enjoying the spectacular peaks on both sides of the strait, and enjoying the charm of green mountains and green hills … This "green" journey has also made tourists full of gains.
Zhang Minghao, a tourist from Liaoning: Sitting on a pure electric cruise ship, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Three Gorges and looking at the grandeur of the great powers, let us feel the beauty of the motherland and the vigorous development of scientific and technological innovation. As a Chinese, I feel very proud!
Suzhou, Jiangsu: Taihu Ecological Island has a high green value.
In Taihu Ecological Island in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, "zero carbon" tourism has also become a popular new trend.
Visitors can stay in a "zero-carbon" homestay, taste "zero-carbon" food, and enjoy the brand-new experience brought by green life in all aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Taihu Ecological Island is the largest island among the freshwater lakes in China. It is known as the "green lung of Taihu Lake", and the "high value" ecological environment has driven the local tourism economy. During the Spring Festival holiday, tens of thousands of tourists punched in on the island. This homestay located at Taihu Lake has been in a "full guest" state since the 28th of the twelfth lunar month.
This three-story building near the lake is no different from the surrounding homestays in appearance. But visitors who come here can experience a clean and low-carbon lifestyle. The wall of the electric boiler that can be turned on immediately is warm, which makes the B&B avoid the energy waste caused by the "weekend economy". The energy-efficient air energy heat pump provides hot water for the whole building all day.
At present, more than 30 farmhouses across the island have completed all-electric transformation. It not only polished the green value of Taihu Ecological Island, but also brought a new economic model to the island. Now it is the strawberry season. In the strawberry shed of this smart farm, more and more citizens and tourists are picking fresh strawberries with great interest.
Different from conventional strawberries, strawberries here have achieved the goal of offsetting their carbon emissions by applying organic fertilizer and recycling agriculture in the production process. In the whole agricultural park, rooftop photovoltaic, energy storage system, smart street lamps … all kinds of green elements can be seen everywhere. Not long ago, this agricultural park was certified as "carbon neutral". This means that every fruit and vegetable planted here is "zero carbon".
Yang Jianhua, head of Xinfeng Modern Agricultural Park: We will further combine new energy technologies with modern agriculture, create a replicable and scalable model of "zero carbon" agricultural park, and help build an ecological island in Taihu Lake.
Green technology constantly innovates and empowers production and life.
During the Spring Festival, a series of innovative green technologies have been accelerated, empowering all aspects of production and life.
In Dalian, Liaoning Province, during the Spring Festival, this newly-built national first "zero-carbon ice rink" attracted many ice and snow lovers to come to punch in. In particular, it is "carbon dioxide" that provides ice making and venue heating for this nearly 1,700 square meters ice rink, and the venue is also equipped with a photovoltaic system to cover all electricity consumption.
Li Shuang, Director of Energy Technology Department of Iceberg Cold & Heat Technology Co., Ltd.: The carbon emission of the ice rink is close to zero during use. This new system is an upgrade of the technology used in the Beijing Winter Olympics. Taken together, it reduces carbon emissions by about 1600 tons per year.
In Chongqing Dazu service area of Yu-Rong Expressway, this high-speed green super charging station ushered in the first Spring Festival travel rush after its commissioning. In addition to eight conventional fast charging guns, there are also two fully liquid-cooled overcharged guns with rated power of 480 kW and maximum support of 600 kW in the whole charging station, which can realize "one second and one kilometer" fast charging at the earliest.
In this company that produces power batteries, it has been working overtime to make orders during the Spring Festival. Not only all the power supply in the production process comes from the newly-built photovoltaic and energy storage power stations, but also a set of intelligent energy management system is newly launched in the workshop. By introducing the artificial intelligence model, the energy consumption data of the factory can be analyzed in real time, and the optimal production mode can be automatically adjusted and matched.
Ying chen, Deputy General Manager of Jiangsu Times: Through systematic upgrading, our energy efficiency has now increased by 37.9%. Now the forklifts and unmanned logistics vehicles in the factory have been fully electrified, making all logistics links run at zero carbon.
From green production to green life, from the innovation of green technology to the continuous expansion of green consumption and service scenarios, not only makes this Spring Festival "green" more intense, but also accelerates the green and low-carbon transformation of the whole society.
