According to China Petroleum Network (Reporter: Duan Rui; Correspondents: Yang Huifeng, Cheng Hao), on May 9, it was learned that in April, the volume of green electricity generated spontaneously at the Changqing Oilfield exceeded the 60 million kWh mark for the first time, reaching 65.88 million kWh. This figure sets a new record for the highest monthly electricity generation at the oilfield, signifying that Changqing Oilfield has taken a significant step forward in the large-scale development of new energy and in ensuring its own supply of clean energy. Since the beginning of this year, Changqing Oilfield has focused on its goal of achieving green and low-carbon transformation, and has accelerated the planning and construction of new energy projects such as wind power and photovoltaic systems. To date, Changqing Oilfield has generated 219 million kWh of electricity this year, a 18.4% increase compared to the previous year ； The share of self-generated green electricity in electricity used for production increased by 18 percentage points on a year-on-year basis. “In the main production areas of Ningxia and eastern Gansu, during the peak electricity demand periods in the afternoons when the weather is clear, the green electricity generated by oil fields can meet over 80% of the energy needs for production. ”Liu Sanjun, deputy manager of the New Energy Division at Changqing Oilfield, said. To ensure effective operation and maintenance, Changqing Oilfield has established a human-machine collaborative model that combines a \"new energy management cloud platform\" with manual inspections, thereby enabling full transparency and visibility across the entire process related to power generation units and their operating status. Based on this, each production unit adheres strictly to the minimum standards for project quality and safety. Through standardized management, it ensures the orderly progress of project construction. Additionally, with the implementation of mobile energy storage pilots and a dedicated operation and maintenance system for gas field photovoltaic systems, a closed-loop management system is established that covers project construction, daily operation and maintenance, as well as local energy utilization. This approach helps to improve power generation efficiency steadily, and it also provides a replicable and applicable model for the oil and gas industry to explore the integration of energy generation, transmission, consumption, and storage, as well as the use of cleaner and lower-carbon energy sources. It is reported that, in line with its development plan for 2026, Changqing Oilfield will add 210,000 kilowatts of capacity in terms of distributed photovoltaic and decentralized wind power installations. Once all projects are in operation, it is expected that an additional 340 million kWh of green electricity capacity will be generated annually. The total installed capacity will exceed 600,000 kW, with an annual power generation capacity of 1 billion kWh. The proportion of green electricity used for industrial purposes is expected to rise to 14%, thereby providing continuous green energy support for ensuring stable production and supply.
