蹚出乡村能源转型新路径

Core Insights - The article highlights the successful energy transformation in Duan Village, Shanxi Province, showcasing a model for rural energy transition through the implementation of a "flexible interconnection" smart microgrid system that achieves 100% green electricity supply and energy electrification [2][4]. Energy Structure Renewal - In 2022, facing high seasonal energy costs and challenges in accessing clean energy, the State Grid Linfen Power Supply Company identified the need for a shift towards green energy solutions to support rural revitalization [3]. - The company collaborated with external research institutions to develop a tailored smart microgrid solution, integrating advanced technologies such as low-voltage direct current interconnection and distributed photovoltaic systems [3][6]. - The innovative application of low-voltage photovoltaic and storage direct current interconnection has improved efficiency by 18% [6]. Energy System Empowerment - The core of Duan Village's energy transformation lies in the village-level smart microgrid project, which includes the construction and renovation of 6.7 kilometers of 10 kV lines and 5.8 kilometers of low-voltage lines, along with the addition of four transformers with a total capacity of 2,520 kVA [6]. - The new system reduces energy loss significantly compared to traditional models, which experienced over 15% loss due to multiple conversions [6]. Energy Transition Effectiveness - The transition has led to a 100% reliance on electric energy sourced from green power, achieving "zero carbon" energy consumption in the region [7]. - This transformation has not only reduced carbon emissions but also improved the ecological environment, creating tangible benefits for the villagers [7]. - Duan Village was recognized as a pilot project under the Global Environment Facility's "China Zero Carbon Village and Town Promotion Project" in April 2025, establishing it as a model for rural green development [7]. Conclusion - The energy transformation in Duan Village exemplifies how grassroots initiatives can effectively contribute to sustainable development, linking ecological protection with economic growth [8].
