Building a first-class distribution network, greatly improving the reliability of power supply
Narrator: Li Weisheng, general manager of Shandong Jining Power Supply Company
Since the reform and opening up, Shandong Jining Power Grid has written a glorious chapter of great development and great leap. Up to now, Jining Power Supply Company has 225 substations of 35 kV and above, with a substation capacity of 20,359,400 kVA, a transmission line of 5,844 km, a maximum power load of 6.06 million kilowatts, and an annual sales of more than 20 billion kwh.
Jining is an important channel for the “West-to-East Power Transmission” of Shandong Power Grid. After the reform and opening up, Jining Power Grid ushered in a spring of rapid development. At the same time that the main network of Jining Power Grid has developed by leaps and bounds, the development of distribution networks is also changing with each passing day.
In the 1990s, Jining Electric Power Bureau took measures to accelerate the construction of rural power grids. In 1993, the city realized “village and village electrification”. In 1995, households were electrified. In 1998, the implementation of the urban farm network construction and reconstruction project was initiated, 42 urban distribution lines were reconstructed, 24,874 rural distribution transformers and 366 distribution lines were reconstructed, which greatly improved the quality of Jining urban and rural power supply.
In the new century, Jining Power Supply Company continued to develop distribution automation systems in urban core areas and county towns. This system construction is equivalent to installing “eyes” for the distribution network, realizing online monitoring of equipment, online collection of operational status data and accurate location of fault areas, fundamentally changing the past “blind adjustment” status, bringing production methods and A major shift in management style.
Now it is possible to complete the fault range location within 1 minute, and provide multiple power-on-recovery solutions for fault isolation and non-faulty areas within 2 minutes, and automatically complete fault identification, isolation and non-faulty section recovery power supply, and the repair personnel accept within 5 minutes. The instruction rushed to the faulty section. At present, Jining Power Supply Company has completed the commissioning of 1498 intelligent distribution lines, with an automatic coverage rate of 100%, achieving a terminal online rate of 99%, a remote correct correct action rate of 100%, and a FA correct action rate of 90%. The average customer power outage time was shortened from the original 120 minutes to less than 5 minutes.
At the same time, Jining Power Supply Company continued to upgrade the urban and rural power grids and continuously optimize the distribution network structure and layout. Since 2015, Jining has implemented a new round of rural power grid reconstruction and upgrading projects, newly built 1626 kilometers of 10 kV lines, and replaced 5116 sets of new equipment; completed 393 small towns (central villages) and 31 villages with insufficient power and power projects. The construction has realized the power supply to the village, and the average household capacity has reached 1.92 kVA, which greatly improved the reliability of power supply.
High-quality development of distribution network
Narrator: He Wei, deputy general manager of Fujian Xiamen Power Supply Company
Xiamen, Fujian Province started the exploration and practice of intelligent distribution network in China. In 2009, Xiamen Power Supply Company started the construction of smart grid distribution automation, took the lead in building the largest distribution automation system in China, and realized the full coverage of Xiamen Island trunk node distribution automation. In the following years, a series of distribution network pilot projects were launched one after another, including high-reliability demonstration zones, demonstration zones of key cities, distribution network transformation and management of key cities, and Xiamen Haidao Xiamen Smart Grid Comprehensive Construction Project. And other demonstration projects. Xiamen Power Supply Company also undertook two national 863 projects, such as “Research and Demonstration of Key Technologies for Active Distribution Network” and “Research and Demonstration of Distribution Network Information Physics System”, and successfully passed the acceptance, integrated distribution terminal unit (IDU) and distribution network. A number of advanced equipment technologies such as fast switching devices and distributed distribution terminals, such as “plug and play” and “interconnected”, were implemented in Xiamen.
These pilot projects and innovative projects not only promote the geometrical leap of the Xiamen distribution network, but also enable Xiamen Power Supply Company to accumulate many typical experiences in the distribution network construction and operation and maintenance. We will do a detailed planning of the power grid, analyze various influencing factors of power supply reliability, focus on the precise input of weak links, and continuously improve the level of the basic grid of the distribution network; we strengthen the lean operation and maintenance of the distribution network, and deepen the state maintenance. Application of auxiliary decision-making system to improve the intelligent level of power distribution equipment inspection, deepen the application of integrated information distribution platform of distribution network in the planning, construction, operation and maintenance, regulation and control of distribution network, and realize the visualization of distribution network Control.
From the comparison of two typhoons that attacked Xiamen in front, it is possible to visually see the effectiveness of the upgrade of Xiamen Power Grid. In 1999, the 15th typhoon "Dan En" caused the power outage of the island of Xiamen Island, and the power supply was resumed 15 days later. In 2016, the world's strongest typhoon “Morante” swept through the Xiamen power grid, but there was no power outage in the core area of Xiamen Island. Seventy-five percent of the island's customers did not have power outages; in just 72 hours, Xiamen Island resumed power supply, and the efficiency of the power generation increased by 5 Times.
Since last year, as one of the first pilot cities in the world's first-class city distribution network construction, Xiamen Power Supply Company has accelerated the realization of “safe and reliable, high-quality and efficient, green and low-carbon, intelligent interaction” of urban distribution network. Lake high-end administrative business district, Jimei cultural and educational tourist area, Majiwan smart business and residential area, Tongji high-load density industrial area, Maxiang old town living area, five comprehensive demonstration areas, for different areas of load characteristics, implementation of differentiation, Multi-element demonstration. By creating these five replicable models, the future urban distribution network in Xiamen will be continuously upgraded from point to point, and finally reach the international first-class level in terms of power supply reliability and power quality. According to the plan, by 2020, the reliability of power supply in Xiamen will reach 99.995%, the reliability of power supply in the core area will be 99.999%, and the distribution network in the central city will reach the international advanced level.
