Chuanguan News reporter Li XinyiSichuan will accelerate the development of distributed photovoltaics in industry and commerce, and promote the construction of distributed photovoltaics in industrial parks. This is what the reporter learned from the provincial conference on promoting the development of distributed photovoltaics in industry and commerce held on April 26th. In response to the problems and difficulties in filing, grid connection, and construction in the current development of distributed photovoltaics in industry and commerce, it was clarified at the meeting that they will be studied and solved to create a favorable environment for accelerating development.Distributed photovoltaic projects have the characteristics of short construction cycles and strong peak capacity. In the event of a power shortage during peak summer, they can effectively alleviate local power supply shortages. Therefore, at both the national and provincial levels, the development of distributed photovoltaics is highly valued, and a series of relevant policy measures have been introduced accordingly. In 2013, the National Energy Administration issued the Interim Measures for the Management of Distributed Photovoltaic Power Generation Projects, which stipulated that distributed photovoltaic power generation should implement an operating mode of "spontaneous self use, surplus electricity grid connection, nearby consumption, and grid regulation". Sichuan has made it clear that it actively supports the development of distributed photovoltaic power stations in local areas. In principle, ground mounted photovoltaic power stations that are fully connected to the grid will not be developed in areas with low sunshine hours. Local governments are encouraged to allocate eligible distributed photovoltaic resources through market-oriented optimization methods.The relevant person in charge of the New Energy Department of the Provincial Energy Bureau stated that these policies have effectively regulated and promoted the development of industrial and commercial distributed photovoltaics in our province. Especially with the continuous decline in photovoltaic module prices in recent times, enterprises in the Chengdu Plain and surrounding mountainous areas have developed successful business models by utilizing rooftop resources, and their enthusiasm has greatly increased.According to the plan, Sichuan proposes to significantly increase the installed capacity of rooftop photovoltaic power generation in industrial parks, significantly enhance the supply capacity of green electricity, and steadily optimize the energy structure by the end of the 14th Five Year Plan. In the future, the construction of a new type of power system supported by new energy in industrial parks will be accelerated.At the meeting, it was clarified that three key tasks will be focused on in the near future:One is to increase the development and utilization of industrial building photovoltaics. The competent departments of cities and prefectures should focus on development zones and industrial parks, comprehensively sort out and investigate industrial building roof resources, actively conduct safety assessments on building roofs, establish a list of roof resource projects that meet safety conditions, implement dynamic management, and provide data support for promoting the large-scale development of distributed photovoltaic systems in industrial parks.The second is to focus on promoting photovoltaic construction in areas with concentrated industrial loads. Cities and prefectures such as Chengdu, Deyang, Mianyang, Meishan, Leshan, and Yibin, where industrial electricity demand is growing rapidly and there is a power shortage during peak summer, should fully utilize the roof resources of existing industrial park buildings, accelerate the construction of a number of distributed photovoltaic projects, fully leverage the peak role of photovoltaic power generation, and reduce the production impact of enterprises during summer.The third is to actively promote the development and utilization of photovoltaics in public buildings. Orderly promote the development and construction of distributed photovoltaics in public institutions such as government office buildings, schools and hospitals, cultural and sports facilities, urban exhibition halls, water plants, sewage treatment plants, bus stops, waiting rooms, and other public infrastructure.
