On April 10, Beijing Energy International’s distributed photovoltaic integrated carbon-neutral project featuring “tech-empowered agriculture + eco-tourism + smart Energy” in Daxingzhuang Town, Pinggu District, Beijing, was successfully connected to power grid. This project is the first integrated industry project implemented in the Beijing, setting an exemplary example of using modern agriculture to lead rural revitalization and promoting carbon neutrality through renewable energy. 

The project includes the construction of six daylight greenhouses and one comprehensive management building. It utilizes distributed photovoltaic systems installed on the back walls of the daylight greenhouses, the roofs of the comprehensive management buildings, and the perimeter walls of the park. By using a new type of cold-formed steel integrated with photovoltaic structures for the greenhouses, and selecting four types of cutting-edge photovoltaic modules, the project achieves improved conversion rates while ensuring eco-friendliness and ease of maintenance. Integrating solar photovoltaic power generation, intelligent temperature control systems, all-space planting technology, water-fertilizer integration systems, and modern high-tech planting, the project utilizes a self-developed integrated smart energy operation and management system to achieve “precise and intelligent management” throughout the entire process. 

The project adopts a “self-use with excess electricity uploading to the grid” mode. It is expected to generate an average annual electricity output of approximately 1.06 million kWh after launched into operation, saving about 339.2 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by about 1056.8 tons annually. It brings positive impacts on brand and social benefits, exploring new modalities for the company’s new energy business development and industrial integration, and assisting in the early realization of Beijing’s dual carbon goals.
