"Meng Dong, wait a minute."
At about 16:00 on January 19, on the sidelines of the group deliberations of the Hengshui delegation, Meng Xianghui, a deputy to the Provincial People's Congress and chairman of Hebei Aoguan Power Supply Co., Ltd., was walking outside when he suddenly heard a strange voice.
In the blink of an eye, it turned out to be Zhao Wei, secretary of the party committee of the Hebei branch of Huadian Group. As a deputy to the new by-election, Zhao Wei participated in the deliberations of the Hengshui delegation for the first time.
The reason why Zhao Wei stopped the other party was that the proposal put forward by Representative Meng Xianghui to promote the green development of the energy storage battery industry at the deliberation site touched him and made him think of docking cooperation.
After explaining their intentions, the two found a place outside the conference room to sit down and discuss together.
"Energy storage is an important part of wind power and photovoltaic power generation, what advantages does Aoguan Company have in energy storage technology?" Zhao Wei asked.
"Aoguan Company is an old enterprise established for more than 30 years, has accumulated a large number of advanced energy storage technologies, participated in the drafting of national energy storage battery industry standards, and was rated as a national specialized new 'little giant' enterprise last year..." Meng Xianghui said that the company's technical strength was full of confidence.
"At the provincial two sessions, the government work report mentioned that the carbon peak and carbon neutrality were promoted in a sound and orderly manner. Photovoltaic power generation, 5G base stations, and data centers are the application areas of the company's leading product energy storage batteries. Meng Xianghui said that using its own energy storage technology, the company has established photovoltaic panels on 6 plants, saving about 2/3 of the electricity cost for enterprises. The future of energy storage batteries is a large blue ocean market, and it is expected that upstream and downstream enterprises will strengthen cooperation and promote the green transformation and development of the energy storage battery industry. ”
Hengshui is a relatively underdeveloped area in Hebei, and there was such a scientific and technological "little giant" as Aoguan Company, and Representative Zhao Wei frankly said that he "did not expect it". However, he also believes that the backward areas have the advantage of being a latecomer in the development of new energy, advanced equipment and other industries, and can better learn from the mature experience and practices of advanced regions, take fewer detours, accelerate catch-up, and Hengshui enterprises and Huadian Group have a broad space for industrial chain cooperation.
"Carbon neutrality is not only the pressure to reduce emissions, but also the driving force for transformation." Zhao Wei said that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Huadian Group strives to increase the installed capacity of new energy by 75 million kilowatts, and the proportion of non-fossil energy will reach 50% in 2025, and the proportion of non-coal installed capacity (clean energy) will be close to 60%.
Deputy Meng Xianghui is very optimistic about the prospects for the transformation and development of Hengshui. "The government work report mentioned that I am particularly excited to build a demonstration belt for the transformation and upgrading of Central and Southern Hebei. We are accelerating the research and development and production of energy storage batteries, improving product quality, expanding market space and expanding market competitiveness. ”
"Let our upstream and downstream enterprises work together to contribute to more blue skies and white clouds in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei!" Hands clasped tightly together. (Hebei Daily reporter Gong Xianyun)
