Talking about the use of solar energy resources and the development of LED street lamps

At present, all countries in the world are actively developing various new energy sources and various energy-saving technologies, such as wind energy, mixed fuel, ethanol, solar energy, hydrogen energy, wave power generation, underground energy, garbage gas and so on. After retiring from the post of President Jiang Zemin, he also proposed in the article "Thinking about China's Energy Issues" that the national level should pay more attention and input to many emerging energy fields such as nuclear energy, wind energy and solar energy.

1 Distribution of solar energy resources in China

According to the data provided by the International Power Network, from the distribution of total solar radiation in the country, Tibet, Qinghai, Xinjiang, southern Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, northwest Shaanxi, Hebei, Shandong, Liaoning, western Jilin, central and southwest Yunnan, Guangdong The total amount of solar radiation in the southeast, the southeastern part of Fujian, the eastern and western parts of Hainan Island, and the southwestern part of Taiwan Province is large. Especially in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, where the average altitude is above 4000m, the atmosphere is thin and clean, with good transparency, low latitude and long sunshine hours. Lhasa, known as the “Sunlight City”, has an average annual sunshine duration of 3005.7 hours, a relative sunshine of 68%, and a total solar radiation of 816 kJ/cm2·a.

2 Status and analysis of solar energy use in Panzhihua City

According to the authoritative data of the National Meteorological Administration, Panzhihua is the most abundant place for heat resources in Sichuan. The sunshine is sufficient, the annual sunshine time is about 2838h, the frost-free period is more than 300 days, and the annual average temperature is 20.6 degrees. Even in winter, it is often sunny and high-light, which is national development. One of the best areas to use solar energy, second only to Lhasa.

2.1 Solar water heaters in Panzhihua City have become a popular choice for residents. A number of solar water heaters have been installed on the roof of many residents of Panzhihua. Under the unremitting efforts of the Panzhihua Municipal Government, the proportion of solar energy installed by the current households has reached 40%, making it one of the best cities in the country to use solar energy.

However, there are also many problems with the use of solar energy. The solar energy equipment of solar water heaters is generally installed on the roof, which is not very beautiful; the floor is low, and it will reflect on the nearby high-rise buildings, causing light pollution; the exposed water pipes often leak water; as the city scales up, the high-rise buildings are pulled out. From the ground up, most developers do not allow solar installations on the top floor, and many households still use gas water heaters or electric water heaters.

In fact, as long as the planning is proper, led by the planning and construction department, unified layout installation or approval for monitoring installation, the use of solar water heaters can not only ease the pressure of gas and electric energy supply in our city, but also low carbon and environmental protection. If there are conditions, the central solar control device can be installed in a relatively scientific way in some reasonable places, converting solar energy into electrical energy in the storage battery, and then providing it to the corridor, aisle, and special bypass device. Public areas such as roads in small districts, as well as indoor lighting and other electricity, will greatly reduce the electricity consumption in urban areas. A few years ago, the Panzhihua Municipal Government had considered using a split-type approach to the use of solar energy in high-rise buildings, so that old houses and homes had to be installed with solar installations, but for various reasons, they have not been implemented. In addition, solar energy stoves are also a good way to live a low-carbon life, using solar energy to convert electricity into electricity or directly into heat, electromagnetic or thermal to drive heating or even high temperature, can achieve the purpose of cooking.

2.2 Panzhihua City solar lighting facilities gradually came into being. Project Case 1: According to the Panzhihua Daily reported in July 2006: No. 2 road lighting project in Panzhihua Industrial Park. This section of the road belongs to the second grade of urban secondary roads, and semi-cut-off light fixtures should be used. Due to the small number of vehicles and pedestrians entering the park at night, the street lights required for the entire line are 294 在 when the minimum illumination and brightness are met. The comparison of the economic benefits of ordinary lighting and solar lighting for this section is as follows: As far as the product itself is concerned, solar LED lamps are more expensive than ordinary lamps; the first investment in high-grade solar street lamps is 715,000 yuan higher than ordinary street lamps, medium and low-grade solar energy. Street lights are similar to ordinary street lights.
