The energy equipment and service business benefited from the promotion of the “double carbon” policy, and the company developed voltage regulators. Under the “double carbon” policy goal, the green and low-carbon transformation trend of the power industry is obvious, and the market demand for the design and manufacture of energy-saving and efficient power generation equipment, power station engineering and services of the company continues to grow. At the same time, due to the system integration transformation of the power station industry, the company has the ability to integrate design, construction and operation and maintenance, and has a strong competitive advantage in the market. In addition, energy conservation and efficiency improvement in the industrial field is very important, and the utilization of waste heat resources has become an important starting point. Iron and steel, metallurgy, chemical industry, cement, petrochemical and other industries are rich in waste heat resources, but the utilization rate of waste heat resources by existing equipment is low, and the progress of energy-saving transformation of boilers will be accelerated. The promotion of the “double carbon” policy forced the accelerated release of industrial energy-saving market demand, which was beneficial to the company’s energy-saving and environmental protection boiler equipment business. At the same time, the company actively developed intelligent operation, improved the efficiency of thermal power business, refined management and control, and achieved remarkable results in cost reduction and efficiency increase.
