On Nov 21, photovoltaic solar panels on the roof of Shandong Zhushi Pharmaceutical Group Co Ltd's factory were successfully connected to the grid, more than three months ahead of schedule. This marks that the enterprise has taken a solid step in the fields of green energy transformation and sustainable development.
Shandong Zhushi Pharmaceutical Group Co Ltd is a large private enterprise integrating research and development, production and sales in the fields of medical devices, biological reagents, health foods, disinfectants and sanitary products, and cosmetics among others. Its annual electricity consumption reaches more than 9 million kilowatt-hours, and the annual electricity cost is over 7 million yuan. In March 2024, Zhushi Pharmaceutical joined hands with Shan County Shanneng New Energy Development Co Ltd to carry out a 4.4-megawatt distributed photovoltaic effect project. A total of 6,567 photovoltaic panels were installed and covered an area of 15,104 square meters.
To ensure the smooth implementation and efficient operation of the photovoltaic power generation project, State Grid Heze Power Supply Company has provided technical support and consulting services throughout the whole process, ranging from the planning, design, and installation of the photovoltaic system to its connection to the grid. It has given a "green channel" for approval, advised on policies, arranged technicians to conduct on-site surveys, customized access system solutions for clients, and provided technical services such as grid-connected testing and debugging to help the project pass review. It has also designated special personnel responsible for the project service to conduct follow-up services throughout the whole process. They have taken the initiative to address the problems arising during the project's construction and followed up step by step. Their efficient and high-quality services were praised by clients.
"After our photovoltaic power generation project is connected to the grid, the annual power generation is expected to reach 5.3 million kilowatt-hours. It can save 2,079 tons of standard coal and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 5,184 tons every year. It is estimated that it can save our enterprise more than 2 million yuan in electricity annually," Zhu Zhiteng, the project leader of Zhushi Pharmaceutical, introduced to everyone with full confidence when the project was connected to the grid.
To better assist private enterprises, State Grid Heze Power Supply Company focuses on their individual characteristics such as business scale, load capacity, and electricity usage nature. Relying on the cooperation among the government, the power sector, and enterprises, and promoting electricity service handling through teamwork, it launched a service model of "immediate power after settling in and starting production", ensuring that enterprises have power early and make good use of it. They are truly achieving the goal of "let power wait on development and not make development wait on power". Meanwhile, the company arranges staff to take the initiative to visit enterprises to conduct electricity usage inspections, patrol, tighten, and measure the temperature of key components such as transformers, distribution cabinets, and incoming and outgoing cables. For the identified potential safety hazards in electricity usage, it issues hazard notification letters and assists clients to eliminate the defects in a timely manner. Moreover, in light of the production situations and electricity demand of different enterprises, it customizes "one enterprise, one policy" electricity usage plans for enterprises, implements precise measures, helps enterprises to use electricity smartly and empirically, reduces electricity costs, and truly helps enterprises cut costs and increase efficiency.
For the 195 key projects at the provincial and municipal levels across the city, the company has set up special working teams and opened a special channel for electricity usage. In accordance with the requirements of "project node-based and node responsibility-oriented", it has clearly defined that the customer managers will provide "one-on-one" services throughout the whole process, fully playing the roles of providing basic support for the power grid, driving investment, and ensuring service, so as to help enterprises go all out in growing better.
