Wind turbines help the Winter Olympic venues achieve 100% clean energy supply, and autonomous driving makes 5G unmanned vehicles pass the torch a reality... Yesterday (February 9), sponsored by the 2022 Beijing News Center, the "New Atmosphere of the City of the Two Olympics - 2022 Chinese and Foreign Media Beijing Tour" city image feature interview activity came to the Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone, and 56 reporters from 35 media at home and abroad visited China's first renewable energy "carbon neutral" smart park and the world's largest autonomous driving and vehicle-road collaborative application test base to feel the power and vitality of innovative Beijing. Many reporters exclaimed: "There are so many hard-core technologies behind the Winter Olympics!" ”

Located in the Economic Development Zone, the Goldwind Technology Industry Smart Park is China's first renewable energy "carbon neutral" smart park, with a perceptible, considerable and executable green park ecosystem integrating renewable energy, intelligent microgrids, smart water, green agriculture and sports health.

"14 years ago, Goldwind's 33 1.5MW wind turbines were successfully connected to the grid at Guanting Wind Farm." Goldwind said that this wind farm is the first large-scale utilization of wind energy resources in Beijing, during the 2008 Olympic Games, it provided a green guarantee for 20% of the power supply of Beijing Olympic venues, and then provided about 100 million kWh of green electricity every year, which can meet the daily electricity needs of 100,000 households.

In 2022, low-carbon green and the Beijing Winter Olympics are once again linked, and Goldwind participates in the construction of the Zhangbei Renewable Energy Flexible DC Power Grid Demonstration Project, allowing zhangbei's wind to "light up" beijing's lights, help the Winter Olympic venues achieve 100% clean energy supply, and continue to provide renewable energy support and comprehensive energy service guarantee for the "Green Olympics".

On February 2, in Shougang Park, a 5G unmanned vehicle became a special "torchbearer" to participate in the torch relay relay. This is the first time in the history of the Olympic Games that 5G unmanned vehicles have participated in the torch relay. The car "drove" into the world's largest autonomous driving and vehicle-road collaborative application test base - Baidu Apollo Science and Technology Park on the 9th. During yesterday afternoon's visit, this futuristic driverless car attracted much attention.

As a concept model of Baidu's "automotive robot", it has the characteristics of automatic driving, intelligent assistant, loyal companionship and self-learning. The reporter noted that the "car robot" subverted the traditional car design concept. In terms of appearance, the automatic gull wing door, all-glass roof and external sensors are integrated, which is very futuristic and technological; there is no steering wheel or pedal in the car, and it has intelligent configurations such as large curved screens, intelligent consoles, variable glass, and zero-gravity seats.

"'Automotive robots' can serve people through triple capabilities." According to the relevant person in charge of Baidu, first of all, it has the L5 level automatic driving capability, which not only does not require human driving, but also is safer than human driving; secondly, it has interactive capabilities such as voice and face recognition, analyzes the potential needs of users, and actively provides services; in addition, "auto robots" also have the ability to self-learn and continuously upgrade, which can serve a variety of scenarios.

"The slogan of this Winter Olympics is to go to the future together, and I believe that in the future we will live more in the era of mobile robots." Wei Dong, vice president of Baidu's autonomous driving business group, said. (Cao Zheng)
