Winter heating is a major issue in people's livelihood. The cold winter has arrived, the people are warm and cold, and all parties are concerned. Bidding farewell to the traditional "household cooking smoke", Yanqing continues to promote the implementation of "clean heating", making rural winter heating more environmentally friendly and economical, which not only ensures that the people are warm in winter, but also helps to fight the battle of Yanqing's blue sky. At present, the rural clean heating in Yanqing District mainly adopts the two methods of "coal to electricity" and "coal to gas", involving 15 towns and towns in the district, and more than 100,000 households have been installed. How satisfied are the masses with "clean heating"? As a livelihood project, how should clean heating be calculated in terms of economy, environmental protection and society? What bottlenecks still need to be solved? The reporter visited some towns and relevant functional departments in our district and took readers to a first-class competition.
Affordable, well-used, heating electricity 1 cent per kilowatt-hour.
In 2021, a new event broke the peace of Wangzhuang Village in Yanqing Town - the village "converted from coal to electricity". "Coal to electricity" is a new heating method adopted to reduce coal pollution, improve air quality, and ensure people's heating. In the depths of the memories of villagers You Ruiming and Che Guifang, it used to be hard to burn coal for heating. At that time, coal transportation was mainly carried by shoulder-carrying people and pulling carts. When I pulled the coal home, I was already black and sweaty. That kind of bitterness and tiredness are still vivid in my mind.
After transporting the coal home, it is not easy to pick up the coal and make the coal. First of all, the coal should be piled up in the yard, and small charcoal cubes should be picked out from it and stored separately. This small charcoal cube is so precious that you don't want to use it until you need to make a delicious meal and need to burn it up. Then mix the coal with other prepared materials, mix it with water, go through multiple procedures such as mixing, pounding, and mixing, and then shovel it back to the house for storage and later use. The process may seem simple, but it's actually both skillful and extremely laborious. When they burned coal for heating in the winter, You Ruiming and Wan Coal were always out of breath. Lighting the coal stove is only warm around the perimeter, and it is still cold elsewhere in the house.
In recent years, changes have taken place in the village year by year, natural gas has been opened, and the road is better, which has greatly facilitated the villagers, but heating in winter still plagues the hometown fathers. Now, the "coal-to-electricity" policy has allowed the village to use electricity for heating. You Ruiming and Che Guifang chose to use an air source heat pump to connect the radiator for heating, which is clean, tidy, convenient and fast. When the cold outside hits the house, the interior is still warm like spring.
Recently, in the face of the cooling weather in the past few days, Che Guifang was busy cooking for the children who were about to get off work, while enjoying the spring-like warmth in the kitchen, and her face was full of joy: "Using 'coal to electricity', it is worry-free and warm, okay!" Don't you know that no matter how clean people used to be, there was soot in the corners. ”
Will electricity bills become a burden on villagers after the "coal-to-electricity" switch? The answer of the secretary of the village party branch dispelled the worries of the villagers: "In a heating season, it will cost your family about 3,000 yuan to remove the subsidy, which is also within the affordable range." Since the 'coal to electricity', the villagers have experienced the benefits of using electricity for heating. Not only is it clean and cost-effective, but it also eliminates the risk of gas poisoning. ”
In October this year, Yuan Qiufeng's eldest sister in the same village was in full swing early in the morning to lead the service staff to visit all households in the village to check the operation of the "coal-to-electricity" supporting power supply equipment.
Our village was converted from coal to electricity in 2021, and now that the policy is good, from November this year to March of the following year, the electricity bill from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. the next morning is only a dime. And you see in our village, the village committee has also set up a special group, and the big guys can ask any questions in the group, and the maintenance personnel will quickly come to repair it for us. We villagers are very happy. Sister Yuan Qiufeng said happily. There are a total of 168 households in Wangzhuang Village, and the number of electric heating users has reached 160.
Since I used electric heating, I don't have to burn coal in winter, it's very clean and warm, and the electricity is safe and stable, and now my nails are finally not black in winter. Yuan Qiufeng led the service staff to check whether the outdoor meter box and line met the installation and use specifications, and at the same time inspected whether the installation of heating equipment and lines and leakage protectors met the specifications. The doubts of some villagers about electricity price subsidies and equipment use were also answered, and practical actions were taken to help achieve the dual carbon goal.
I used to watch the smoke rise from a distance, and I thought it was quite romantic, but when I got closer, the air was full of the smell of soot, which was very choking, and the car was full of ashes flying all over the sky. Looking up again, the blue sky is covered with a gray filter, and it smells like the smell of burning coal in winter. Looking at the now clean village, Yuan Qiufeng said with emotion. "Now, no one piles firewood, coal piles, cinders and other things on the exterior walls, and the front and back of the house are very clean, the air is fresh, and it is very comfortable. There are also villagers who have set up homestays to attract people from the city to come to the countryside for vacation in winter, or even for the Spring Festival. ”
There is no longer black smoke in the countryside, the air is fresh, and the hometown is becoming more and more beautiful...
"Cloud governance" was adapted to local conditions, and 287 villages were piloted for real-time protection.
The trees are bleak, and the mountains are cold. In Yanqing in winter, the wind is cold outside, but the inside is as warm as spring. On October 30, in the long-term management and maintenance service center of Yanqing District, Hao Xingxing, a post-90s dispatcher, was methodically carrying out the operation monitoring and command and dispatch of clean heating "coal to electricity" equipment in front of the computer. How did she manage to be so organized? She said it all depends on the service center's "heating monitoring platform."
As soon as the heating season begins, there is a lot more scheduling work than before. In particular, the operation guarantee of heating equipment is the top priority. "In rural areas, the clean heating work points are multifaceted, the service scope is large, the equipment installation is scattered, and the later maintenance is difficult; The general public lacks the relevant knowledge of the operation and maintenance of clean heating equipment, and the incidence of equipment failure will be higher in extreme weather; Therefore, it is necessary to use diversified repair channels to carry out intelligent operation and maintenance scheduling, so as to truly solve the people's urgent and anxious heating demands. Although Hao Xingxing's working hours are still short, she has her own experience when it comes to how to do a good job of serving the people.
In the long-term management and maintenance service center, the reporter saw that the operation and maintenance of coal-to-clean energy heating equipment in the whole region were being monitored in real time on the large visual screen of the center. It is understood that it is expected that in October next year, the system will integrate 95% of the global resources, which can be dynamically monitored in real time to realize the operation and maintenance monitoring of more than 100,000 devices in Yanqing District.
Before the heating season, our platform supports a comprehensive inspection function, and the dispatching center fully controls the inspection standards, processes, and progress, and can grasp the inspection situation and statistical analysis data in real time. It is also convenient for us to coordinate equipment enterprises, service agencies, emergency maintenance teams and some village caretakers, receive service instructions from the dispatch center through the mobile phone APP, and respond to dispatches. Heating users report for repair through the dispatch center, and the platform automatically generates the address of the farmer, nearby maintenance personnel, equipment manufacturer model, operation condition, and fault code. Hao Xingxing said.
At the same time, Liu Liyang, a maintenance personnel at the other end, received an inspection notice on his mobile app. "Hello Auntie, we are the inspection staff of the 'coal-to-electricity' project in our district, and we will come to see if there is any problem with your air source equipment. Since late August, Liu Liyang has started this year's equipment inspection work, power connection, pressurization, focusing on checking the equipment circuit, waterway, fluorine circuit and other conditions and whether the equipment components are normal, debugging the equipment timer, cleaning up the air outlet and air inlet, and removing the hidden dangers of failure in time.
We started to check the equipment door-to-door so long in advance, and the precautions were explained very clearly, and we could contact the staff 24 hours a day if there were any problems, which made us feel very sure. In Laorenzhuang Village, Aunt He, a villager, praised the inspection work of "coal-to-electricity" equipment.
Liu Liyang mentioned the problem of maintenance costs that users are worried about, and said: "Most of us are elderly people in rural areas, and after the heating equipment fails, they are afraid of spending money and endure it, just like Aunt Han's house in Laorenzhuang Village, thinking that the maintenance cost is thousands, and they have not been repaired, and now we find the problem in advance through intelligent inspection and solve it." In fact, the equipment is still under warranty, and there is no charge for maintenance, but users do not understand the relevant policies, resulting in many problems affecting normal heating. ”
In order to better understand the heating situation of the villagers, build a bridge of communication with the villagers, and improve the quality and satisfaction of the service, Liu Liyang also issued a contact card for the villagers, so that the people can contact the maintenance personnel, "Auntie, uncle, if you have any problems, you can report for repair with one click on the mobile app, or you can call the 24-hour service**, we will come to the door within 2 hours, and the maintenance can be completed within 4 hours." Even if there are heating problems at night and holidays in the heating season, Liu Liyang and his colleagues will solve the problems for the villagers in the first time, and truly "handle the complaints immediately" and effectively solve the "urgency, hardship and hope" of the people.
In winter, the heating of rural people cannot tolerate any failure of equipment, and the demand for repair is often very time-sensitive and urgent. Liu Liyang has been engaged in this industry for 8 years, talking about the service platform, he said: "The benefits of this platform are comprehensive management, timely scheduling, early warning, rapid feedback results, and can also remotely control and find problems, find out problems, solve most of the equipment abnormal problems, save door-to-door time and avoid making villagers anxiously wait." ”
Subsequently, Yanqing District will formulate strict assessment and management measures for the shortcomings of after-sales service of "coal-to-electricity" equipment, clarify the rules for work order acceptance, maintenance timeliness, and satisfactory return visits, and establish an evaluation mechanism linked to quality assurance. Through institutional constraints, year-end assessment and other safeguard measures, we will continuously optimize and adjust service quality and service efficiency. At the same time, through AI, digital twin and other technologies, the platform analyzes factors such as the user's geographical environment, climate change, building characteristics, equipment status, control logic, etc., intelligently adjusts the operating parameters of the system, greatly reduces energy consumption and failure rate, and improves user satisfaction.
Reduce pollution and benefit the people, and promote clean heating.
In Shangshuimo Village, Yanqing Town, the reporter asked an elderly man in the village: "Over the years, what is the biggest change in your life after you use coal to switch to electricity?" She held out her finger and pointed slightly smugly above the wall behind her, and when she looked back, it was a thermometer. "In the past two winters, when it is cold, it can reach 20 degrees indoors, which is much more comfortable than before. The old man smiled in response. For an elderly man in the countryside, saving money, worry, and warmth is not the best proof of improving his life.
The transformation of Shangshuimo Village in Yanqing Town is the epitome of "coal to clean energy" in Yanqing District, and 319 villages in the district have completed the "coal to clean energy". At the same time, the reporter also saw in the investigation process that the cost problem is the threshold that must be crossed for the promotion of clean heating. On the demand side, the first problem is directly related to the "money bag" of each villager, and whether it is economical is undoubtedly the first concern of the people. On the supply side, a stable and profitable sustainable operation model and continuous technical research will escort the follow-up promotion of clean heating.
Promoting "coal to clean energy" to control air pollution is a systematic engineering and complex proposition, focusing on long-term interests of public policies, and the immediate practical interests of the people have a certain degree of contradiction, how to choose? When implementing specific reform measures, in addition to focusing on the purpose and effect, how should we optimize the strategy and method?
"Coal-to-clean energy" is people's livelihood in the long run, but "far people's livelihood" cannot replace "near people's livelihood", and good things to protect and improve people's livelihood should be considered comprehensively. Adequate pre-implementation plans, gradual implementation, and post-implementation evaluation and feedback, fully considering social tolerance and reflecting humanistic care are indispensable. Only in this way can we truly be responsible for policies and the people.
In the interview, the reporter found that some areas have given full play to their resource and technological advantages, and the "coal to clean energy" has been promoted impressively. In 2022, the air source heat pump technology in the market in Yanqing District has matured. In rural areas, with air source heat pumps as the mainstay and energy storage electric heaters as supplements, there has been a blowout growth in the promotion of "coal-to-electricity" users of heating equipment. At the same time, in some remote rural areas with weak energy infrastructure and no clean energy substitution, transitional measures such as high-quality coal replacement and the use of energy-saving and environmentally friendly stoves are also being effectively implemented.
According to the relevant person in charge, some villages in Pearl Spring Township, Yanqing District, do not have the conditions for "coal to electricity" transformation, and adopt high-quality coal substitution ideas. Paying attention to the "people's livelihood in the distance" should take care of the "people's livelihood in the near future", and Yanqing District will continue to strengthen the governance ideas in remote mountainous areas and find governance methods.
Since 2016, Yanqing District has continuously strengthened the protection of the ecological environment, accelerated the construction of ecological civilization, controlled air pollution, gradually transformed to clean energy and new energy, actively promoted clean heating in winter, reduced the heating cost of the masses, and improved heating conditions. The effect of "coal-to-electricity" on improving the atmospheric environment is obvious to all, and it has also enabled thousands of households to achieve "clean heating" and improve the home environment. To protect and improve the people's livelihood, we must grasp the most direct and realistic interests of the people, do one thing after another, year after year, always maintain the feeling of serving the people, and constantly improve the people's sense of gain and happiness.
Reporter's Notes. The "Clean Heating" project is not only a heart-warming project, but also a measure to win the battle against pollution. Clean heating should not only calculate the "economic account", but also the "people's livelihood account" and "ecological account", so as to truly achieve low-carbon conservation, clean and environmental protection, in order to penetrate into the hearts of the people.
Clean heating replaces the smoky coal stove for heating, so that the masses can bid farewell to the choking smell of soot and the cumbersomeness of continuing to dig out coal ash, effectively improve the quality of life, make the people smile, and fully embody the people-centered development concept. At the same time, the winter clean heating work in rural areas is related to the warm winter, physical health and comfortable life of farmers, in the later management and maintenance work, one of the most important and most important issues to pay attention to is the maintenance needs of clean heating equipment, through the improvement of the clean heating equipment in the later management and protection mechanism, the scientific layout of maintenance outlets, careful deployment of maintenance personnel and other measures, successfully solve the demands of the masses.
Whether it's improving the environment or ensuring heating, it's all about benefiting the people. Only by adhering to the people-centered, accelerating the improvement of environmental quality, and allowing the people to enjoy the blue sky and white clouds, the twinkling stars, the clear water and green banks, the shallow bottom of the fish, the birds and flowers, and the pastoral scenery, can we continuously improve the people's sense of gain, happiness and security for the beautiful ecological environment.
