The construction of "the first city of photovoltaic application" presses the "fast forward" button

Although it has entered autumn, this past summer is still the "hottest summer"
that many Hefei people remember.
In previous years, when the peak summer was held, there would always be power cuts from time to time, but this year's high temperature has reduced this action, what is the reason? When the media reporter visited Hefei City, he learned that it turned out to be the "hard work"
of photovoltaic power generation.
Under the background of a series of policies to promote the healthy development of the photovoltaic industry and the increasingly internationalized photovoltaic industry, the construction of Hefei's "first city for photovoltaic application" has also pressed the "fast forward" button
.

Photovoltaic power generation beats the "hottest summer"

Statistics from the State Grid Hefei Power Supply Company show that as of June 30, 2016, the total grid-connected capacity of photovoltaic power generation in Hefei was 1058.
76MW, including 32 photovoltaic power station projects with a grid-connected capacity of 790MW, and 4103 distributed photovoltaic projects with a grid-connected capacity of 268.
76MW
.
The maximum output of various photovoltaic power generation this summer is close to 400,000 kilowatts, which has become a strong support point
for Hefei's maximum load to hit a record high.

"Without the strong support of the above-mentioned photovoltaic power generation, there will be a load gap
of nearly 400,000 kilowatts in Hefei this summer.
" The relevant person in charge of the Hefei Municipal Economic and Information Commission said that in that case, the "Hefei 2016 Orderly Electricity Consumption Plan" will inevitably be launched, and more than 400 enterprises in the city need to carry out orderly electricity consumption and peak avoidance work, such as these enterprises do not actively shift peak during peak load periods, of which 100 commercial enterprises need to restrict lighting or air conditioning electricity consumption, and the remaining 300 enterprises cannot continue normal production
.

Under the test of the "hottest summer in history", photovoltaic power generation has become a "secret weapon" for Hefei to face the peak of electricity consumption, which makes photovoltaic companies in Hefei very excited
.
In fact, photovoltaic power generation has been widely valued by countries in recent years and has developed rapidly
because of its universal, non-toxic, pollution-free, non-waste, noise-free and inexhaustible advantages.
The "China Solar Energy Development Roadmap 2050" puts forward the grand vision
that China's solar power generation will account for about 40% of the total power generation by 2050.
The International Energy Agency expects that by 2050, photovoltaics will become the largest source
of electricity.
At that time, in the global energy Internet, photovoltaic clean energy will become the leading energy source and make great contributions
to the sustainable development of human society.

"The first city of photovoltaic application" paves the way for the industry

Looking back at the road of Hefei's photovoltaic industry, the forward-looking foresight of the energy crisis can be said to strengthen the determination of the Hefei Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to develop the photovoltaic industry and promote photovoltaic applications
。 In June 2013, under the severe situation of the global photovoltaic market downturn, insufficient application in the domestic market, and production and operation difficulties and cold winter of photovoltaic enterprises, Hefei Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government conscientiously implemented the decision-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, saw early and acted quickly, took the initiative to respond to the energy crisis and environmental pressure, adapted to the new normal of economic development, accelerated the promotion and application to promote the development of the photovoltaic industry, and successively introduced a series of special policies to support the development of the photovoltaic industry since July 2013.
It has paved a good road
for the development of the photovoltaic industry.

The relevant person in charge of Hefei Municipal Economic and Information Commission said that up to now, Hefei's photovoltaic promotion and application has achieved obvious economic, ecological and social benefits, the project has driven investment of nearly 10 billion yuan, accumulated power generation of 300 million kilowatt hours, saved about 88,000 tons of standard coal, reduced carbon dioxide by 228,000 tons, and generated direct economic benefits of about 300 million yuan
.

While gathering key photovoltaic enterprises at home and abroad, such as JA Solar, Tongwei Solar, Hareon Photovoltaic, Rainbow Photovoltaic Glass, and China Building Materials (Hefei) New Energy, Hefei actively cultivates the development and growth of local enterprises such as Sungrow Power and Zhongnan Optoelectronics, and Hefei photovoltaic industry has formed a relatively complete photovoltaic industry chain from glass substrate - polysilicon raw material - cell - module - inverter - energy storage battery - power generation engineering, with 17 photovoltaic production enterprises on the plan, and the world-class photovoltaic industry cluster has begun to take shape
.

In terms of photovoltaic applications, Hefei is also at the forefront of the country: implementing three major innovations and comprehensively promoting photovoltaic applications
.

Innovation support policies: Since 2013, the Hefei municipal government and relevant functional departments have successively issued a series of policies to support the development of the photovoltaic industry, covering capital subsidies and photovoltaic rural areas
.
This year, it creatively proposed to encourage the construction of "Internet +" smart energy platforms, carbon emission trading, and asset securitization of photovoltaic power plants, etc.
, and the leading role of innovation is obvious
.

Innovative application channels: implement six major projects, including distributed photovoltaic roof, photovoltaic building integration, photovoltaic rural areas, demonstration base construction, photovoltaic ground power station, photovoltaic lighting, etc.
, and comprehensively promote the construction of
national new energy demonstration cities.
Moreover, it creatively combines poverty alleviation and development with photovoltaic applications, explores a new path of poverty alleviation to solve the poverty alleviation of rural poor families, achieves precise poverty alleviation, and creates a national precedent
.
The first batch of building-integrated solar sanitation stations were put into use in the high-tech zone, realizing multiple benefits
such as power generation, energy saving, beautiful and practical.

Innovative assessment mode: Hefei City will include the construction of photovoltaic power plants in the annual energy-saving goals and key tasks of each county (city) district and development zone, regularly carry out supervision and inspection of photovoltaic promotion and application, and solve the problems found by "dispatching" within a time limit
.
Up to now, Hefei has 85 grid-connected projects, with a cumulative installed capacity of 893MW, ranking first
among provincial capitals in China.
