On the evening of December 4, "meet Beijing" 2021 / 2022 International Snow Federation Nordic Intercontinental Cup cross-country skiing 10km competition was held in Zhangjiakou national cross-country skiing center.




[we're here for the Beijing Winter Olympics]



"Meet Beijing" 2021 / 2022 International Ski Federation ski jumping and Nordic Intercontinental Cup competitions ended recently. Part of the competition was held in the evening, and the lighting and power supply of the venue were tested. During the Winter Olympics, some competitions in Zhangjiakou will be held in the evening because of the audience. In view of the outdoor competition and the importance of lighting for competition safety, the stability of power supply is very important. In addition, winter is the peak of power consumption, which also puts forward higher requirements for power guarantee. How to ensure the stability of power supply during the game and do a good job in "green power" to the greatest extent? Recently, the reporter interviewed relevant personnel in the power supply field of the national cross-country center.



Make full use of innate resources



Traveling in Zhangjiakou competition area, you can see the wind power generation facilities from time to time.



"We have built an 'energy Internet'. Considering that Zhangjiakou is rich in wind and light renewable energy, making full use of these renewable energy can provide a lot of green power." Huo Dawei, deputy power manager of Zhangjiakou ancient poplar venue group and power manager of the national cross-country skiing center, said.



Huo Dawei said that the power consumption of Zhangjiakou competition area uses the existing 500 kV, 380 kV and 220 kV terminal power, and makes full use of Zhangjiakou's wind and light resources to power the venues through power grids at all levels, so as to achieve sufficient green power.



"In Zhangjiakou, the installed capacity of new energy has exceeded the traditional installed capacity. That is to say, under the condition of simultaneous linear output, more than 5 kwh of electricity per 10 kwh comes from renewable clean energy. Zhangjiakou competition area has also built its own 'Bashang Three Gorges', and its installed capacity has now exceeded the installed capacity of the whole Three Gorges hydropower."



Make every effort to overcome the climate impact



Wind brings electricity, but it also causes difficulties in the construction of power facilities.



Huo Dawei frankly said that the strong wind and low temperature in winter in Zhangjiakou are the two main difficulties in power guarantee.



Considering the influence of strong wind, Huo Dawei said that all electrical equipment in the competition area adopts cable instead of overhead, so as to reduce the disturbance of wind to overhead power facilities. In addition, in order to deal with low temperature, all power facilities adopt higher-level low-temperature equipment selection.



In addition to the impact of low temperature on power supply equipment, it also brings greater power supply pressure.



"Usually, there are two difficult times for power facilities, that is, two 'peaks' in a year. One is to meet the peak in summer and the other is to meet the peak in winter. And the Winter Olympic Games happen to be in winter." In addition, according to the above, more than half of the power supply for the Winter Olympic Games is "green power" of wind and light. On the one hand, the power consumption surges. On the other hand, both wind and light are affected by natural conditions and can not guarantee stability. How to ensure stable power supply in winter in Zhangjiakou competition area?



In order to overcome the two problems of "surge in power consumption" and "instability", Huo Dawei said that on the one hand, Zhangjiakou has carried out a number of power network infrastructure construction for the consumption of nonlinear power output load of new energy, such as abundant light and wind energy in Zhangjiakou, when the output is better, that is, sunny or windy days, It is difficult for the whole Zhangjiakou area to absorb all the electricity, so the UHV project from Zhangbei to xiong'an has been built in the area, that is, the green electricity that can not be absorbed locally can be directly transmitted to the places where more electricity is used.



Then, for the local power consumption, through the Zhangbei wind power storage demonstration project and the Zhangbei flexible DC project, the extra electric energy is stored in the form of DC during the low load period.



Take many measures to improve guarantee details



Since the test activity of "meeting in Beijing" in February this year, Zhangjiakou competition area has successively established more than 600 power guarantee teams in 4 competition venues and 5 non competition venues.



At the same time, in order to better protect the test competition and the official competition of the Winter Olympics, after the "meeting in Beijing" test activity at the beginning of this year, each power support team conducted preventive tests and electrical defect elimination on the permanent power facilities of the venue, that is, a comprehensive physical examination of electrical equipment. Meanwhile, since August this year, according to the power demand during the Winter Olympic Games, all venues have fully started the construction of temporary power for OBS, media operation, venue operation, athlete comprehensive area and so on. These areas of the test race are provided by temporary power. By the end of the test competition, except for OBS, the construction of power facilities had been completed, and the venue had reached the power supply capacity during the Winter Olympic Games.



While ensuring the normal operation, the power support team did not forget the emergency measures.



Li Xiaohu, head of power technology of the national cross-country skiing center, said: "On the power supply side, we have signed power safety notices with various business areas, and made statistics and monitoring on the power consumption equipment in all fields. On the power supply side, we have developed accident plans for each power supply equipment, one thing at a time and one line at a time, so as to ensure that we have emergency disposal methods in any case."



Taking the national cross-country skiing center as an example, Li Xiaohu said that in terms of temporary power support, the venue hired British Alec company, which has long cooperated with OBS company, which is also a partner of many Olympic Games. In terms of power facilities, the venue power supply adopts double circuit power supply to ensure the reliability of power supply. At the same time, 9 generators are prepared at key parts as double insurance. Dual power supply is adopted for all important loads, For particularly important loads, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) shall be added on the basis of dual power supply to ensure safe and reliable power supply. During the intercontinental cup test competition, the "+ 2" and "+ 1" mode shall be adopted, that is, in addition to the uninterrupted power patrol during the competition, the power patrol shall be conducted 2 hours before the competition and 1 hour after the competition to ensure the smooth operation of the power facilities in the venue.
