Gifts given to African brothers -China aid construction of photovoltaic power stations to relieve the power use of China -Africa republics

The city of Binbo, about 9 kilometers west in the capital of the Chinese and African Republic, has a gentle terrain and a high sun. The boundless tree sea surrounds a square field of about 160,000 square meters. It is neatly arranged in a solar panel of more than 30,000 meters long and one meter wide, forming a "giant mirror" of a cobalt -blue blue blue. Essence

It is relying on this "giant mirror" that the local sufficient solar energy is converted into electric energy, and then through the flow box, boost stations, power grids and other facilities, it is continuously transported to Banji's factories, schools and thousands of households. Essence

This is the first photovoltaic power plant in the Central African Republic, the Saka Ping Poor Power Station. The power station was contracting by China Energy Construction Group Tianjin Electric Power Construction Co., Ltd. (China Energy Construction Tianjin Power Construction). The installed capacity was 15 MW. Its completion greatly alleviated Banji's electricity difficulties and promoted the local social and economic development.

During the Beijing Summit of the China -Africa Cooperation Forum in September 2018, the Republic of China and the Central African Republic reached a consensus on the construction of the photovoltaic power plant project. In April 2021, the builders of China Electric Power Construction in China went to China and Africa to start work. The project is responsible for supervision by the Yangtze River Survey Planning and Design and Research Co., Ltd.. After the flat, civil -building concrete infrastructure construction, equipment installation, equipment wiring debugging, etc., the photovoltaic power plant has been connected to the network on June 15 this year. It is reported that the power station can currently meet about 30%of the power consumption needs of the class.

The citizen of Banji City raised Du Anji to rent a house and raised two children. A few days ago, when the reporter interviewed him in Banji, he said to the reporter: "After having a photovoltaic power station, the refrigerator can be used, and I can drink ice water on a hot day; my children can learn at night, and now I hope that the children can get it. good grade."

Southern Bama, a citizen living in the suburbs of Banji, said with emotion that now there is more lights at night, the community has become more lively, and residents are more secure.

"Now the community has a new seller, some people open a small restaurant, and it is open at night. The photovoltaic power station makes the community angry. I believe it will be better in the future." Installed Gelabeba Speaking.

According to the photovoltaic power station project manager, Benji currently relies mainly on diesel and hydropower. The cost of diesel is high, and the development of hydropower is slow. The construction cycle of the photovoltaic power station project is short, green and environmentally friendly, and the installed capacity is large. The project also provides about 700 employment opportunities during the construction process to help local workers master various skills.

"We have a low employment rate here, and many people around us are in their jobs. Relying on working at photovoltaic power stations, I have money to support their families, see a doctor, and learn line installation technology." Gilabe said.

In the control room, the employee, who has just joined the 6th month, is studying while learning under the guidance of Chinese engineers. The experience of working at the photovoltaic power station helped him set up professional goals. "This project is a gift from China to the Republic of China and Africa. Chinese brothers work and train me with me. I hope to be a professional electrician in the future." Bangalla said.

It is expected that with the development of Banji, the power consumption will increase in the future. "For this reason, we reserved an open space of about 3,000 square meters next to the booster station as the section of the line. If necessary, you can install a new transmission network." He said.
