Guodian Power Accelerates Building of Smart Thermal Power Plants

On June 12, Guodian Power Development Co., Ltd. under China Energy held a meeting for its pilot smart thermal power plants and specialized departments to summarize the progress of the construction of smart thermal power plants in the first five months of 2019 and make plans for the formulation of smart thermal power plant standards. This marked a new step forward towards its goal of building smart coal-fired power plants following the approval of its standards for smart new-energy enterprises.

As one of Guodian’s first pilots in this regard, Dongsheng Thermoelectricity Company has successively developed intelligent DCS, AI patrol robot, AI leakage and venting identification and AI positioning, and took the lead in the country to adopt these approaches in thermal power generation. At present, QR-based whole-life cycle management of equipment, intelligent soot blowing, digitalized coal yard and coal conveying corridor patrol robots have been put into use at Dongsheng’s thermal power stations, establishing a paradigm for building smart enterprises among Guodian’s thermal power plants.

In recent years, to create safe, efficient, eco-friendly, low-carbon, flexible and intelligent coal-fired power plants, Guodian Power has made active efforts to improve its digitalization, automation, informationization and intelligentization levels. In accordance with Guodian Power “1+4” General Plans for Building Smart Power Enterprises, greater efforts will be made to prompt smart power plant construction so as to accelerate high-quality development.
