How about Guangzhou Pumped Storage Hydropower Station in Guangzhou? Are there any interesting places?

Guangzhou Pumped Storage Power Station Tourist Resort is located in Lutian Town, Conghua, which is a perfect combination of high technology and nature and has the characteristics of industrial tourism. It is the largest pumped storage power station in the world. In 2002, it was rated as AAA-level scenic spot by National Tourism Administration. The hydropower station broke ground on 1989 and completed the whole project on 12, with a total investment of 6.5 billion yuan, distributed within 27 square kilometers. The power station hub project is very grand, mainly consisting of upper and lower reservoirs, two underground workshops and a 30-kilometer underground passage. The difference between the upper and lower reservoirs is more than 500 meters, with a storage capacity of 24 million cubic meters. When Daya Bay Nuclear Power Station or Guangdong Power Grid is in a low power consumption state and there is surplus power, the surplus power is input into the energy storage unit, and the water from the lower reservoir is pumped to the upper reservoir, and the electric energy is converted into the potential energy of water for storage, which is called "pumped storage". In the peak period of power consumption, the water in the upper reservoir can be released to drive the generator to generate electricity, meet the power demand and improve the power supply quality of the whole power grid. Two diversion tunnels with a diameter of 9 meters are 4000 meters long, which run through the upper and lower reservoirs and connect the underground powerhouse. The underground workshop is equipped with eight energy storage generator sets imported from France and Germany, with a total installed capacity of 2.4 million kilowatts per hour, ranking first among similar power plants in the world. The workshop with a depth of 450m is huge, with a height of 45m, a length of156m and a width of 22m. If the numbers are too abstract, imagine that it is a factory building that can fill the entire Aiqun Hotel. Is it specific enough? ! There is no one on duty in the factory building, and it is completely monitored by a set of dual backup intelligent computer systems. Eight units can be started and stopped remotely in Guangzhou and Hong Kong, and the degree of high-tech modernization has truly reached the world-class level. The whole scenic spot is dominated by primitive secondary forests, surrounded by mountains and fresh air. The negative ion content is high, which is difficult to achieve in general industrial areas, and the green coverage rate is over 90%. In the area, the trees are lush, the grass is lush, the pavilions are strewn at random, and the winding path is quiet, which is naturally matched with the surrounding buildings.
