Core Concept - The article discusses the evolution of industrial parks towards "zero carbon parks," highlighting the significance of photovoltaic (PV) technology in achieving this goal [4][6][16]. Group 1: Historical Context - The first water-powered spinning mill was established in Manchester in 1771, marking the beginning of modern factories, with over a century until the first power station was built [1]. - The first industrial park in the world was established in the UK in 1896, showcasing the historical development of industrial facilities [3]. Group 2: Zero Carbon Parks - "Zero carbon parks" are defined as industrial parks that achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions through various technological means within a specified timeframe [4]. - The concept of zero carbon parks was first introduced at the Central Economic Work Conference in December 2024, with a commitment to promote carbon peak and carbon neutrality [4]. Group 3: Policy and Market Dynamics - Recent government initiatives, including a joint notice from the National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and National Energy Administration, support the establishment of zero carbon parks in qualified regions [6]. - The Yangtze River Delta has emerged as a significant market for distributed PV development, benefiting from a robust industrial base and high energy consumption [6]. Group 4: Photovoltaic Installation Data - In the first quarter of 2025, a total of 59.71 GW of new PV installations were added, with the commercial sector leading by contributing 31.26 GW [6][9]. - Jiangsu, Anhui, and Zhejiang provinces accounted for 13.83 GW of new PV installations, representing 23% of the national total for that quarter [9]. Group 5: Technological Innovations - The Chuangwei PV "zero carbon smart park" features innovative designs such as PV carports and a solar rainbow corridor, optimizing energy generation through strategic angles and structural designs [10][12]. - The park includes an integrated energy storage system with a capacity of 1840 kW/2870 kWh, enhancing energy efficiency and stability [12]. - Advanced maintenance technologies, including drones and smart cleaning robots, are employed to ensure the operational efficiency of PV installations [14]. Group 6: Environmental Impact and Future Outlook - The total installed capacity of the Chuangwei zero carbon park is 6.54 MW, generating approximately 8000 MWh annually, which equates to a reduction of 7332 tons of CO2 emissions [16]. - The park serves as a model for future PV development, demonstrating that zero carbon initiatives can enhance competitiveness and drive new growth opportunities [16].
