Baoding as "China Sun city"

It has become the only "national comprehensive application of solar technology demonstration city", "national renewable energy industry base"

We strive through 3 to 5 years of efforts, the basic realization of the comprehensive utilization of solar energy in various fields, to achieve annual saving 430 million kwh, coal saving 118 thousand tons, 12 thousand and 900 tons of sulfur dioxide emissions, 38 thousand and 500 tons of ash emission reduction targets

Baoding, January 11, (Yang Xuehui, Song Tao, Guo Dong, Xu Hua) this morning, the State Ministry of science and technology for Baoding award, the city became the only "national comprehensive application of solar technology demonstration city", "national renewable energy industry base". This marks the comprehensive utilization of solar energy in Baoding has entered a new stage of development, and will promote the application of solar energy throughout the country and to provide a model of industrialization.

At the beginning of 2007, Baoding, superior climate conditions rate up to 80% and annual solar technology advantage in the new energy and energy equipment industry by relying on, strive to use 3 to 5 years in various fields of production and life of the basic realization of solar energy, the first to build a national demonstration of the "solar city".

To this end, Baoding city to seize the existing living area of solar energy application transformation and implementation of solar building integration design, development, application and acceptance of these two key points, the rapid spread of the solar energy application areas of life. At the end of December 2007, the city has 38 residential solar photoelectric transformation, 46 residential units to install solar central heating water system. At present, in the construction of 30 projects in a total construction area of about 1 million 500 thousand square meters has installed solar hot water system, the total construction area of 2 million 850 thousand square meters of 51 projects under construction with the installation conditions of photoelectric lighting system.

In the New Century Garden District, the property manager Man Zhenyu to the calculations, district invested more than 30 yuan of the 120 solar garden lights can reduce annual electricity loss, and maintenance expenses 7 yuan, after 6 years can recover the full investment.

According to the Baoding Municipal Development and Reform Commission, the world's first solar full glass component instead of the traditional glass curtain wall of the star hotel - Jinjiang International Hotel Valley years ago has installed solar PV panels; 94 completed the transformation of solar energy applications traffic intersection traffic lights; 11 tourist attractions completed the transformation of solar energy applications, of which more than 4A level scenic spots complete 100%...... In addition, the urban road lighting, public places, schools and hospitals and other regions and industries, the transformation of solar energy applications has been in full swing, and achieved remarkable results.

According to preliminary estimates, only the urban traffic lights, architecture, landscape and road lighting system in October last year before the end of the completed solar energy project, annual saving up to 8 million 20 thousand kwh, 240 tons of sulfur dioxide emissions, 793 tons of carbon dioxide emissions. After the transformation of the heating system, the longest investment recovery period is 2 years, the shortest is only half a year.

It is reported that, as a "national comprehensive application of solar technology demonstration city", Baoding city will focus on the comprehensive utilization of solar energy technology development and platform construction, to further improve the "model city" development strategy and planning, focused, step by step, accelerate the integration of achievements of the national science and technology projects and to absorb all aspects of the advantages of technology. We should make full use of the existing R & D and industrialization basis, build up the talent, capital, technology, information platform and policy environment, incubate a number of high-tech enterprises, and train a number of engineering and technical experts, scientific and technological entrepreneurs. Strive through 3 to 5 years of efforts, the basic realization of the comprehensive utilization of solar energy in various fields of production and life, to achieve annual saving 430 million kwh, coal saving 118 thousand tons, 12 thousand and 900 tons of sulfur dioxide emissions, 38 thousand and 500 tons of ash emission reduction targets.

Vice Minister Cao Jianlin, vice governor Long Zhuangwei attended the awarding ceremony.
