Why are energy development and poverty alleviation both important?

October 19 news, as an important model of targeted poverty alleviation, photovoltaic poverty alleviation has now become the leading poverty alleviation method in my country’s poor areas, and has also become a nationally recognized model for its accuracy and sustainability. ways of alleviating poverty.

In April this year, reporters walked into the third phase of the photovoltaic power generation project base of Elion Resources Group. Rows of neat photovoltaic panels were shining in the sun, and Zhang Jihai was busy cleaning the panels. "The weather is getting warmer. Once we clean up the contracted area, we can plant licorice and breed it. It's time to make money again." Zhang Jihai happily told reporters while working. Zhang Jihai is a poor householder in Duguitala Town, Hangjin Banner. Due to congenital physical disabilities, his already poor life is even more difficult, but he is working hard to change his life with his flexible mind and hard-working hands.

At the beginning of 2017, after learning that Elion Solar Energy Company was implementing photovoltaic module cleaning and under-panel planting and maintenance poverty alleviation projects for poor households in villages and communities in Duguitala Town, Zhang Jihai signed an agreement with Elion Solar Energy Company. Contracting Agreement. At the same time, he made full use of his own semi-new four-wheeled vehicle and modified it according to the requirements for renting a water truck for component cleaning. After on-site testing, it met the requirements for component cleaning and usage, and he reached a water truck rental agreement with Elion Solar Energy Company. As Zhang Jihai himself said: "Elion Photovoltaic Power Generation has created a good opportunity for me to increase my income and become rich, which makes me feel that living a wealthy and happy life is no longer a dream."

In Hangjin Banner, Dugui Tara, there are many poor households like Zhang Jihai. Through cooperation with photovoltaic projects and working part-time, they have removed themselves from poverty.

It is understood that the 1GWp Kubuqi Desert Ecological Solar Photovoltaic and Photothermal Desert Control Comprehensive Demonstration Project has planned photovoltaic power generation of 800MWp and solar thermal power generation of 200MWp. The total project investment is approximately 10.917 billion yuan and the desertification control area is 78,000 acres. , the project is constructed entirely using unused desert sand land. As of June 2016, 310MWp of grid-connected power generation has been built, with a desert control area of ??15,000 acres and an annual power generation capacity of more than 500 million kWh.

The person in charge of the project said that during the construction and operation period of the project, it can help more than 800 poor households, create more than 1,000 job opportunities, and increase the income of farmers and herdsmen by more than 19 million yuan; the land under the photothermal panels will be used for Planting and breeding, especially pairing up with poor households to form a company + farmer model, can generate an income of more than 60,000 yuan for each farmer and herdsman household in one year.

We must unswervingly win the battle against poverty. As long as one household or even one person has not solved their basic living problems, we cannot remain content; as long as the people’s longing for a happy life has not become a reality, we We must unswervingly unite and lead the masses to fight together, and never let any ethnic minority or region fall behind.”
