Guodian's hydropower installed capacity is expected to exceed 10 million kilowatts by the end of the year

In 2009, the Chinese government made an important commitment to the world. It is necessary to reduce the unit GDP by 40% to 45% by 2020, and the proportion of non-fossil energy in primary energy consumption will reach about 15%. Both indicators are closely related to hydropower, and successful implementation is not easy.

As one of the five major power generation groups, China Guodian Corporation feels that its burden on the shoulders is heavy, and that it is incumbent on one responsibility to help the country to implement its commitments. One end is a promising opportunity to urge hydropower to accelerate its development. On July 15, 2010, Guodian Group held a symposium on accelerating hydropower development. Based on affirmative achievements and summing up experiences, the company analyzed the situation, carefully deployed and established the ambitious goal of “123” – and strived for hydropower installed capacity to reach 1,000 in 2010. Millions of kilowatts, 20 million kilowatts in 2015, and 30 million kilowatts in 2020.

In fact, looking back at the history of hydropower development of Guodian Group, it will be discovered that despite difficulties and flaws, from 29.4 million kW to 7.99 million kW (as of the end of June 2010), more than 7 loads will achieve a growth of 171%. The pace of development never stops...

Rapid Flow: The Fruit of Water and Power

Faced with various difficulties, Guodian Group has successively proposed strategic objectives such as “prioritizing the development of hydropower” and “construction of large, medium, and small hydropower projects”, and on the basis of strict compliance with national policies, scientifically arranging hydropower investment plans, developing rationally, coexisting harmoniously, and continuously exploring suitable With its own road of hydropower development, the flowers of water and power are gradually bearing fruitful results.

Judging from the scale of development, Guodian Group focuses on the development of hydropower in the Dadu River Basin, and the scale of hydropower development continues to expand, and the economies of scale initially appear. Guodian Daduhe Company, as the largest hydropower company in Sichuan and Guodian Group, has an installed capacity of 3.9 million kilowatts, which accounts for approximately 10% of the total installed capacity of the Sichuan Provincial Power Grid. The comprehensive benefits of river basin cascades are fully realized, and the total installed capacity of 14 power plants is 17.525 million kilowatts. The acquisition of the development rights has further consolidated the dominant position of the basin development and laid the foundation for the realization of the overall goal of “one thousand five thousand of the installed capacity and overall basin scheduling”. Guodian Xinjiang Company installed 870,000 kilowatts of hydropower capacity, and controlled 6.79 million kilowatts of hydropower resources. It possesses hydropower resources development rights for Ili Kashi River, Kaidu River in Bazhou, Aksuku Marak River, and Aibi Lake Project, and has sustainable hydropower resources. A good foundation for development. In addition, Guodian Yunnan, Guodian Sichuan, and Guodian Power also through the years of unremitting efforts to steadily promote hydropower development, large-, medium-, and small-scale hydropower construction in full swing. By the end of this year, the hydropower installed capacity of Guodian Group is expected to reach 10 million kilowatts, and the goal of “1” will be successfully achieved.

Even more encouraging to Guodian people is that the Group’s reserves of hydropower resources are getting richer and better, and it has prepared for the long-term development of hydropower. Through poverty alleviation and other means, Guodian Group actively communicates with local governments, seeks support from all parties, establishes a good cooperative relationship, and vigorously promotes hydropower development in Yunnan, Xinjiang, Tibet and other areas where hydropower resources are abundant, and the available hydropower resources Both in terms of quantity and layout, they are all developing well and going upstairs.

Judging from the development channels, Guodian Group, on the basis of accelerating the self-development of domestic hydropower projects, has strengthened the M&A intensity of small and medium-sized hydropower on the one hand, and on the other hand “going global” to expand overseas, expanding the development area. Since 2009, Guodian Group has jointly acquired 2.7 million kilowatts of medium and small hydropower. Hydropower overseas development has also achieved initial success. Guodian Xinjiang Company focused on Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and Tajikistan as its major investment countries and actively explored the hydropower market in Central Asia; Guodian Yunnan Corporation actively advanced into the hydropower market in Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam, and other countries; and entered Southeast Asia and South Asia; Guodian Guangxi Branch relied on ASEAN; Trade areas and geographical advantages have also won overseas projects such as Cambodia and Laos.

From the standpoint of independent innovation, Guodian Group insists on relying on key projects and large-scale projects to concentrate on in-depth research, and the level of hydropower development design, construction, and management has been continuously improved. The research and application of the "Research and Application of River Sedimentation Technology for High Flow, Steeper Ratio, Deep Overburden, and River Closure" conducted by Daduhe Company of Guodian Power Co., Ltd. has reached the international advanced level, and the unprotected bottom closure technology for the characteristics of the deep overburden of the Pubugou Project has been achieved. The international leading level has played a very good demonstration role in China's hydropower engineering field.

From the perspective of all parties, under the guidance of the concept of harmonious hydropower, Guodian Group correctly handled the relationship between hydropower development and ecological environmental protection and reservoir resettlement in accordance with the requirements of building a resource-conserving, environment-friendly and sustainable development, and won The coordinated development of economic, social, and environmental benefits. In particular, Guodian Daduhe Company's environmental protection concept of “combining with green mountains and green water and making green mountains and green water more beautiful” has taken the word “more” into the hearts of the people and has taken the lead in the ecological environmental protection work in the hydropower basin. The harmonious and win-win relationship between all parties has created a good external environment for the smooth development of hydropower projects of Guodian Group, and has laid a solid foundation for the next major development of hydropower and the big leap forward.

Looking at the changes in the capacity of hydroelectric assembly machines of Guodian Group from 2002 to June 2010, it can be seen that in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009, the newly installed capacity was 240,000 kilowatts and 51.5, respectively. Millions of kilowatts, 303,000 kilowatts, 257,100 kilowatts, 391,600 kilowatts, and 1.673 million kilowatts, and the new increase in 2009 is almost the sum of annual capacity increase from 2004 to 2008. It can be said that the development of hydropower after 2009 has entered a new stage of large-scale development and great leapfrogging.

Long-sleeved dance: For the first time

"Ask the canal so clear, as the source of active water." After years of hard work, Guodian Power Group's hydropower development has grown from small to large and has grown from weak to weak. It has achieved phased results and accumulated valuable experience.

For example, ensure strategic leadership. Based on the changes in the external environment and contents of hydropower, Guodian Group timely adjusted the working ideas and tasks, changed the mode of development, and formulated a development strategy. From "priority in the development of hydropower" to "reservation of large, medium, and small hydropower projects", they have all proved to be the correct decisions for building high-occupancy buildings. In particular, “Large, Small and Medium-sized Hydropower Projects at the same time” can not only exert the scale benefits of large-scale power plants, but also give play to advantages such as relatively simple approval of small and medium-sized hydropower projects, short construction period, and quick results, and they have played a vital role in creating a new situation for hydropower development of the Group Corporation. Important pointing role. After several years of practice, the hydropower projects of the Guodian Group have blossomed, gradually expanded from the Dadu River Basin and Xinjiang's pure concentration to Yunnan, Sichuan, Jiangxi, Hubei, Guangxi, Gansu, Shaanxi, and Fujian, and the scale of installed capacity and resources continued to increase. .

For example, the "green channel" is open. During the acquisition process of the Gansu Daigusi Hydropower Station and the Yunnan Dayingjiang First Power Station, Guodian Group passed the “Green Passage” system, shortened the examination and approval time, improved the efficiency of decision making, quickly made clear approval of relevant requests, and provided timely fund guarantees. In a move to reverse the competitive landscape, rush to complete mergers and acquisitions in front of competitors.

For example, do a good job of coordination and communication. At the beginning of its establishment, Guodian Xinjiang had only one 460,000-kilowatt Jilintai hydropower station under construction, but now it has 870,000 kilowatts of hydropower, 800,000 kilowatts of hydropower under construction, and 6 million kilowatts of four rivers. Behind the huge leap is the efforts of Xinjiang companies to fully seize resources, and also demonstrates the ability of Xinjiang companies to fully rely on the government and seek support from multiple parties. Good government-enterprise relations have created a good environment for the rapid growth of the company.

For example, innovative project management. Guodian Daduhe Shuangjiangkou Power Station combined with seismic deepening research, the optimization of the inlet of the emptying pit from the shore tower type to a shaft type structure, saving direct investment of 86 million yuan; Monkey Rock Power Station will combine the second half of the diversion tunnel No. 1 with the flood discharge tunnel, The temporary right-banking low-traffic-traffic tunnel combined with a flood discharge hole will save more than 100 million yuan in cost. Guodian Sichuan Company combines the characteristics of the project and adopts the “full-process, full-watershed, and all-round” optimization design. Through the joint design optimization of Dongyi-Shuangkui Power Station, the budgetary investment is greatly reduced. And so on, the list goes on. It is through the reinforcement and optimization of survey and design management that the quality of the project has been effectively improved, the construction cost has been reduced, and the core competitiveness of the project has been further improved.

Successful experience has not come by easily. It has provided intentional lessons for both Guodian and other hydropower companies. In the moment when hydropower ushered in a new period of development opportunities, it should be even more cherished.
