Introducing wind power for the first time in the Suzhou area

In the autumn sun, along the clear water, five windmills lined up in the shape of a white wind-blown leaf that glowed under the blue sky, and under the windmill, five sprinkler droplets splashed and were watering Fruit trees and grassland, this is a new landscape that the reporter saw yesterday in the Taihu Lake Wetland Park in the High-tech Zone. This is a new measure for the park to try low-carbon and energy-saving operations. It is reported that the introduction of wind power generation system in Suzhou scenic spots is still the first time.

This group of wind power generation systems is located in the farmers' orchard and Lok Wo Lin area of ​​the Taihu Lake Wetland Park. The investment is about 200,000 yuan. It was completed yesterday. According to Shi Jie, director of the Taihu Wetland Park Engineering Department, the newly erected five wind turbines are 8 meters high and 2.8 meters in diameter. There are three blades on each generator, and a tail can automatically locate the direction of the wind, maximizing the utilization of the windmill.

Shi Wei said that because the wetland park is close to Taihu Lake, the terrain is flat and empty, and the wind resources are abundant. Usually, the wind power can reach 3 to 4 levels. Therefore, they chose to install this group of wind turbines with a starting wind force of 3, that is to say, When the wind reaches 3.5 meters per second, it can start to store electricity. According to their calculations, each wind turbine can generate electricity once per hour. Based on an average of 20 hours a day, it can generate 100 kilowatts a day.

In order to make full use of wind power, the park installed battery packs under the windmills to store electric energy and convert them into electricity. At present, it is first used for irrigation in green areas. Garden staff introduced that the use of natural wind energy can effectively reduce the cost of irrigation. Not only can each set of equipment save 20,000 yuan in fuel or electricity annually, and this recyclable clean energy can be automatically irrigated as long as there is wind. Save manpower.

Shi Wei said that the electricity generated by the 5 windmills at the moment is sufficient to ensure the irrigation of 30,000 square meters of green space, but now the green space near the windmills is only 4,000 square meters. Therefore, the next consideration is to use wind power for peripheral streetlights. It is expected that the wind power can be satisfied. 200 盏 energy-saving street lighting. It is reported that after the successful piloting of the first batch of windmills, Taihu Wetland Park will also be used on a large scale along the central lake.
