2015 Beijing subway will be completed 8 to 100 thousand LED lamps transformation

Beijing Metro Department revealed the day before, Beijing Metro will promote energy saving, promotion of green lighting, is expected to 2015, completed 25 stations and 8 energy-saving air conditioning to 100 thousand LED lighting transformation, to achieve annual saving 10 million degrees.

According to reports, the energy consumption structure of the subway, including electricity, natural gas, heat and other different categories, including vehicle traction and power lighting power consumption accounted for more than 80% of total energy consumption. With the operating mileage increase, passenger volume rising, the lines running interval continuously shortened, and elevator, air conditioning and other equipment to increase energy consumption, subway rigid growth, energy saving has become an important content of the Beijing subway authorities.

From the beginning of 2005, the Beijing subway investment 8 billion 500 million yuan, the subway line 1 and line 2 involving more than more than 70 equipment systems, upgraded to advanced, energy-saving products. In 2010 the Beijing subway pilot project implementation of LED lighting, LED lamps to replace the total nearly 2000, section 156 thousand. 2012 Beijing subway operators will expand the promotion of LED green lighting, plans to replace 20 thousand LED lamps, is expected to save electricity by 1 million 700 thousand degrees.

According to reports, the "12th Five-Year" period, the Beijing subway will optimize the train diagram, promote the utilization of regenerative braking energy of the key technology development application and promotion of LED promotion of green lighting, air conditioning energy saving technology products, strictly control the office of energy consumption, and ultimately reduce energy consumption.
