Frontier | What can the "digital grid" bring? Smart street lights have become charging piles, and big power data helps companies save energy...

Integrated Energy Service Special Training (Ninth Issue)

November 26-27 · According to the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government’s accelerating the construction of "Digital Guangdong" and the requirements of China Southern Power Grid for the construction of "digital grid", China Southern Power Grid Guangdong Power Grid Corporation takes optimizing power supply services as the starting point, enabling business integration and ecological integration.

Currently, a number of digital projects represented by electricity calendars, smart street lights, and power big data have achieved initial results. The "digital grid" has become the starting point for China Southern Power Grid to promote the modernization of power supply services, allowing the public to enjoy the dividends of the "digitalization" of power.

Handheld electricity, users don’t need to run

at the Jiangbei Administrative Service Center in Huizhou, Guangdong. The local power station staff is guiding the citizen Mr. Chen to transfer the electricity meter. Different from the traditional counter processing, all the procedures of this electricity meter transfer are operated on the mobile phone. In less than 5 minutes, Mr. Chen completed the review and submission of the transfer information. "I just finished the transfer of the house today, and I am going to the power supply bureau. I didn't expect to be able to do it directly on the mobile phone. It is really convenient." Mr. Chen said happily.

In recent years, China Southern Power Grid has vigorously promoted the deep integration of digital technology and power supply services, integrating the power services commonly used by the masses into unified Internet service platforms such as WeChat, Alipay, Guangdong Province, China Southern Power Grid APP, etc., through the One Net Office and power supply personnel on-site service, Achieved 22 “do not run once” for the electricity business. Small and micro enterprises do not need to run, spend no money, and reduce the process time limit by half.

Chen Xueqin, who had just completed the PV on-grid electricity settlement on her mobile phone in Daliang Street, Foshan, told reporters that in the past, she had to prepare more than a dozen receipts in advance for each completion of PV settlement and more than a dozen stamps were required. Now, the PV APP developed by the local power supply department can automatically store the corresponding data with only one binding, and the settlement can avoid the repeated submission of many documents, saving time and effort.

"The digital transformation of the power grid not only saves time for users, but also has a positive impact on our grassroots power supply departments to promote the modernization of power supply services." Li Zhimei, deputy manager of the power supply service center of Huizhou Huicheng Power Supply Bureau, introduced that through digital transformation, Huizhou central urban area business The office has been continuously integrated. From 5 outlets in 2015 to 3 now, the amount of copy materials for the public office has been reduced by more than half.

China Southern Power Grid Guangdong Power Grid Corporation Digital Department Big Data Division Manager Qian Zhenghao said that by 2021, Guangdong will form an all-round digital service system with full coverage of digital services in various cities and cities, and a full-scale digital service system with vertical and horizontal connections.

Smart street lights, driving the improvement of the city's capacity

In the evening, a batch of new street lights with their own charging devices on Tianhe Naner Road, Guangzhou slowly lit up to illuminate the way people go home. After a busy day outside, Chen Jiawei parked the electric car in the parking space next to the street light, clicked the electronic screen on the light pole, and the continuous electric energy was input into the car, and the car quickly "resurrected with blood." It is understood that this batch of street lights is a smart street light pilot project of China Southern Power Grid. It integrates regional public information query machines, electronic road signs, smart charging piles and other equipment. It has functions such as information query, digital routing, and fast charging, and can provide passers-by Convenient service. The digital transformation of the

power grid has greatly improved the sense of acquisition of users. In Guangdong, not only citizens can feel more convenience, but the infrastructure business department can also enjoy tangible digital dividends.

Take Guangzhou as an example. As a 5G pilot city, Guangzhou has a huge demand for 5G micro base stations, and smart street lights provide a high-quality carrier for the 5G network layout. Cen Haifeng of the Planning Department of the Guangdong Guangzhou Power Supply Bureau, who participated in the design and construction of smart street lights throughout the process, said that in the development of street lights, the project team reserved 5G micro base station installation interfaces on the light poles at the beginning of the design, so that the base stations can be installed without Sewing and joining, in one step. The thinking concept displayed in the design process of

smart street lamp is a reflection of the company's commitment to digital transformation to promote the improvement of urban capabilities. At present, many digital application research groups have been established at all levels of the company to break through industry barriers and strive to further extend digital power applications to all walks of life.

Power big data, serving enterprises to save energy and increase efficiency

In order to save electricity costs, Zhongshan Guanhua Bamboo Fiber Board Co., Ltd. once set up energy-saving supervisors in each production workshop, supplemented by people stop and stop lights, adjust equipment start-up time, etc. Measures, but the effect has not been ideal. The electricity cost of

remained high. Chen Weihong, the electrician supervisor of Guanhua Company, was very anxious and took the initiative to call the local power supply department for help. After receiving customer demand, Zhongshan Shandong Power Supply Bureau tracked the electricity consumption level and electricity fluctuations in the workshop through the power big data platform, and finally determined the reason for the excessive energy consumption of the fixed frequency equipment used by the workshop motor. According to the analysis results, Guanhua prescribes the right medicine and installed frequency converters on all the motors originally used for fixed frequency. Not only can it save 500,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity a year, but the renovation cost is low, and the cost can be recovered in a few years, saving both electricity and money.

"After the transformation, the motor runs normally and also meets the requirements of the production process." Chen Weihong said, "The actual power consumption is 20% less than before the transformation. We are very satisfied."

assists enterprise users to save energy and increase efficiency. Social responsibility that has always been adhered to. Since 2019, the company has successfully assisted a group of high-energy-consuming enterprises to complete power-saving transformation using big data services. According to estimates, the precise pulse of the electric power big data platform can help companies reduce electricity costs by 10%-20%. At present, the company's electric power big data platform has been used in many industrial facilities operation projects in Guangdong Province, including chemical, smelting, and automobile manufacturing, and has achieved good energy-saving effects.
