The Geely grid-connected solar project was put into operation on June 19, becoming the city's largest photovoltaic power generation project.
Zhejiang Geely Automobile Company is located in Ningbo Economic and Technological Development Zone. The roofs of the FE workshop stamping, welding, painting and final assembly plants are covered by a total of more than 9,300 pieces of polycrystalline silicon photovoltaic components. With a total investment of 28 million yuan, the capacity of the project is 2.23 MW, and the average annual output reaches 2 million KWH.

According to a person in charge of the company, by installing equipments on the existing roofs, they can not only reduce costs but also effectively solve the problem of electricity shortage in peak hours.

With the photovoltaic project officially put into operation, the company can save electricityby around 5% annually, amounting to 500,000 yuan of cost savings. During the peak hours, it can effectively reduce the use of grid power, and leave more power for civil use. In addition, the project has an obvious effect of energy conservation and emission reduction, as it can save 752.8 tons of standard coal each year, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 1972.2 tons.

It is learned from the promotion meeting for the construction of rural cultural halls in Ningbo held on June 17 that this year will be the pilot year for the construction of the halls and 150 demonstrative rural cultural halls will be built within the year. Yu Hongyi, Member of the Standing Committee of Ningbo Party Committee and Director of Ningbo Publicity Department, attended the meeting and delivered a speech.

Over the years, considerable attention has been paid to rural culture construction in Ningbo, especially in recent years.
