Chapter 1138 - Comprehensive Power Plant!

The energy support that Jiang Huaguo had received for a long time since the fall of the Soviet Union collapsed in an instant, and now the energy system has become heavily dependent on crude oil provided by the Bobolívar countries at preferential prices.

Jiang Huaguo's own energy production now meets less than half of the country's needs, and its own domestic oil companies produce nearly 4 million tons of crude oil a year, mainly to fuel old power plants. In addition, 97% of the country's natural gas production is used for power generation and domestic use.

Although Bolívar provides a lot of crude oil for Jiang Huaguo every year, but these are all costly, Jiang Huaguo's government officials also know that to develop the economy, they cannot lack electricity, they are also worried about the problem of energy shortage, and now they are overjoyed to hear that this top rich man is willing to invest in the construction of biomass power plants here.

"Mr. Yang, just now you said that your biomass power plant can use Malab as fuel to generate electricity?"

An official from Jiang Huaguo's Ministry of Energy and Mining asked in surprise.

Yang Jie smiled: "Our technical experts have also done research on this kind of linen cloth, which is a high-density, very low-humidity hardwood, which is ideal for burning. Burning 3 tons of marab is equivalent to 1 ton of fuel oil, which is very suitable for use as fuel for biomass power plants. Sugarcane biomass is a waste generated in the sugar extraction process, and the use of linea and sugarcane biomass to generate electricity is not only low cost, but also renewable, and is an environmentally friendly clean energy. ”

Nanao Group has been developing new energy power technology equipment and engineering projects for so many years, and has long made technical reserves in biomass power generation technology.

If Huaxing Technology Group wants to enter the market of that country, many of its companies have to conduct research on various domestic situations in this country, and then propose various feasible development plans to Yang Jie.

The special geographical environment and natural state of Jianghua country are very great opportunities for the development of renewable energy, and there is a lack of electricity here, so the use of bio-direct combustion for power generation is not only environmentally friendly, but also a great promotion of local economic development.

The sugar industry used to be the king of the industry here, and the sugar output of Jianghua Country has been more than 5 million tons for decades, ranking first in the world's sugar production.

However, after the fall of the Soviet Union in the early 90s of the last century, Jianghuaguo's sugar exports were hit hard, and the sugar industry suffered a great impact, and a large number of originally prosperous sugar factories were idle and closed, and the operating sugar factories plummeted from more than 150 to more than 50, and the sugarcane fields around the idle 100 sugar factories were quickly occupied by Malab.

In the eyes of the local peasants, this kind of marab is the enemy of destroying the farmland, because this plant will grow wildly all over the mountains as long as there is open land, and the local people are very worried about it, and they do not know what to do with it.

However, Nanao Group has also sent an expert group to study this kind of marab, and it is also found that this plant is very suitable for use as biomass power generation fuel, and it is also found that this plant can be made into activated carbon bags after the heating process of biomass pyrolysis, which is used to adsorb pollutants and filter water.

Now the value of activated carbon can be sold for more than 15,000 yuan a ton per ton, and this high-quality activated carbon can be sent to China to prepare a variety of types of activated carbon products used in many fields.

It's just that Yang Jie naturally won't say such a thing.

"Mr. Yang, we are very interested in the investment project you mentioned to build a biomass power plant, but I don't know how many power plants you plan to build in this project?"

"We still need to conduct a more detailed investigation to determine, but we have also made a preliminary estimate that a 60 megawatt biomass power plant will consume about 3,000 tons of bagasse and hemab every day, so when building this kind of power plant, we must ensure that there is enough supply of hemab and bagasse around, and it is best to build around the sugar mill, because there are a large number of marab shrub resources near each sugar mill, and the 15 kilometers of railway around the sugar mill is used by the sugar mill, which can be used to transport sugarcane during the sugar extraction season, which is more convenient。 ”

Yang Jie said: "In addition, the construction cost of biomass power plants is now about twice that of thermal power plants of the same scale, and the cost of power generation is not likely to drop significantly, basically maintaining the level of 0.07 US dollars per kilowatt hour, and now the basic electricity price in Jianghua is 0.01 US dollars per watt, if we just build such a biomass power plant, we will not be able to achieve profitability." ”

He paused and said: "What I mean is very simple, as long as the biomass power plant itself can break even in the power generation business, and the only way to achieve profitability is to rely on the by-products of the power plant to process." ”

"Our Huaxing Technology Group is now doing a good job in biomass pyrolysis technology, through these pyrolysis obtained solid carbon, wood tar, wood vinegar and combustible gas, combustible gas is used to generate electricity, other by-products can also be used and developed. ”

Yang Jie said: "So what I mean is to build a comprehensive power plant, the scale of investment will also follow, the investment scale of such a comprehensive power station is expected to be within 100 million to 200 million US dollars, our company will conduct more detailed investigation and preparation before investment and construction." ”

"If our technical solution is proven to be feasible, we will first build such a comprehensive biomass power plant, and after a period of operation, we will see how the effect is, and if we can achieve our expected goals, we will build multiple power stations one after another." ”

Yang Jie will not rush forward in this regard, because his money is not blown by the wind, after all, the Nanao Group Company is only conducting preliminary research, and there are still many technical details to be prepared in the middle.

It is not too late to invest more until the first biomass power plant is built and proven to be feasible after a year or two of stable operation.

Jiang Huaguo's officials were a little surprised by Yang Jie's cautious attitude towards the power plant, because the top billionaire can invest more than a billion dollars in the field of telecommunications, but he has become quite cautious in this regard.

"Mr. Yang is now short of electricity in our country, and we also hope to be able to quickly launch several large power plants to solve the power shortage, your Huaxing Technology Group is very powerful in new energy technology, and we also welcome you to invest in other new energy technologies here. ”

Jiang Huaguo's officials from the Ministry of Energy and Mining saw that Yang Jie was more cautious about biomass power plants, and also wanted to get other new energy technology investment projects.
