Smart grid equipment demand growth driven enterprise transformation intelligent manufacturing enterprise competitive advantage

"From the installation of power equipment, investment scale, power equipment is divided into two parts, part of the power construction equipment, power generation equipment, including water, fire, nuclear, wind, light and other power generation equipment, the other part of the power grid construction Equipment, including transmission, distribution, electrical equipment, etc. In 2015, the absolute value of power generation equipment production is increasing, but the growth rate is gradually slowing down, while the transmission and distribution equipment production growth is on. "February 17 Day, in the "Toshiba China Forum 2017" industrial electrical sub-forum, the China Electrical Equipment Industry Association Assistant, Smart Grid Equipment Committee Secretary-General Wang Kun said.
In recent years, in the distribution network investment, rural power grids, urbanization construction, distribution transformer transformation and a series of favorable policies, transmission and distribution equipment demand increased significantly, at the same time experienced a highly developed process. This also requires transmission and distribution enterprises to transform as soon as possible to meet market demand.
Demand for power grid equipment exceeds power supply
Recently, the National Energy Board announced the 2016 national power industry data. Investment from the grid point of view, 2016 1 to 12 months, the national grid investment reached 54.26 billion yuan, an increase of 16.9%, accounting for 60.8% of the entire power investment.
"In addition, according to statistics, 110 kV substation, power distribution equipment has exceeded 58%, an increase of 35.9%, power grid construction growth rate is the power grid construction speed is more than 58% 16.9%, through the comparison is not difficult to see, low-voltage power distribution products and the growth rate of power grid growth in multiples of the relationship. "Wang Kun analysis said that this shows that China's power grid construction investment intensity is greater than power construction, Power grid construction investment strength, the share of low-voltage power distribution equipment more than half of the growth rate is greater than 110 kV transmission equipment.
Wang Kun in view, the power grid construction investment intensity is greater than the power supply construction is normal. He gave the reason. First of all, the power system, there are issued to the power to be output, distribution, transmission and distribution equipment demand will increase with the increase in power construction. Second, power grid construction lags behind power construction. The lag period is usually between 2 and 4 years. Now China's power supply construction has entered a bottom of the process, 2015 ~ 2016, China's power transmission equipment has undergone a rapid development process, but the next 2 to 4 years after the power grid construction growth will slow down, the fundamental The reason is that social demand for electricity is declining.
But the green, energy-saving features of the smart grid construction is always the same. Therefore, the need for power transmission equipment business with the times, change the concept. "From the equipment point of view, the equipment is the power grid technology and power grid new structure of the carrier, no equipment support, any technology, policy, development trends are passive water." Wang Kun said.
Therefore, in the process of promoting the construction of smart grid, China has introduced a number of power transmission equipment related policies, such as "on the distribution network construction transformation action plan" proposed, "thirteen five" period, China's distribution network construction investment Not less than 1.7 trillion yuan, and the upgrading of distribution transformers made a request. Another example is "on the distribution transformer energy efficiency improvement plan", which proposed to the end of this year, efficient distribution transformer in the network to increase the proportion of running 14%, the cumulative promotion of efficient distribution transformer 600 million kVA. Among them, the new incremental promotion of not less than 350 million kVA.
Transmission and distribution equipment enterprises need to be guided by these policies to accelerate research and development. Wang Kun said that the future of power equipment technology will have four development trends, first, the new economic development requires that the power equipment manufacturing industry must be to the quality and efficiency of change. At present, the power distribution, transmission equipment industry overcapacity, with the country "three to make up a drop", to production capacity will become a "three five" a tone; Second, a new round of technological revolution and industrial revolution requires power equipment Manufacturing industry to the intelligent transformation; Third, the transformation of power to power requirements of the power equipment manufacturing industry must implement innovation-driven strategy; Fourth, "the way all the way," the overall layout of the power requirements of the equipment manufacturing industry must speed up the implementation of "going out."
Intelligent manufacturing into power transmission equipment business competitive advantage
"The recent major countries in the world have launched a smart manufacturing national development strategy, the development of intelligent manufacturing as a strategic core.From the current point of view, to intelligent manufacturing as the representative of the new generation of industrial revolution will be the key to the release of future competitiveness, Brand key. "Wang Kun pointed out the importance of intelligent manufacturing.
For the power transmission equipment, intelligent manufacturing in a broad sense, including the product manufacturing part, refers to the design, processing, assembly, testing, testing, operation and other intelligent, on the other hand refers to the intelligent function of the device itself, such as intelligent transformers , Smart switch.
"For the power transmission equipment, the current core components of the design, manufacturing difficult.Use the environment is complex, on-site remote detection operation and maintenance needs more urgent.For high-voltage, high voltage transmission and transformation equipment manufacturing enterprises need to coordinate the use of resources, To achieve a unified technical management, collaborative manufacturing process. "Wang Kun said.
And for power distribution equipment, the current industry to flexible manufacturing for the characteristics of intelligent manufacturing system design, customization of the manufacturing. At present, the profitability of distribution equipment enterprises is very low, subject to material cost fluctuations, labor costs rise, the market end product prices lower and other factors, the existing product management and manufacturing model does not change, then the profit margins will become more The more obvious, the industry will cause a greater impact. The need for transmission and distribution enterprises as soon as possible to achieve intelligent product design, flexible management of low-voltage power distribution equipment, intelligent manufacturing, including product life cycle management, digital product design and production layout simulation.
So, how to achieve flexible manufacturing? Wang Kun proposed to digital design as the premise, the establishment of flexible automated production lines to achieve the production process, system operation, logistics layout and production of the beat of the balance, and supporting the digital workshop transparent information process management system.
At present, many domestic transmission and distribution equipment companies are taking the road of intelligent manufacturing. Such as Tianshui Great Wall Switch Factory Co., Ltd. implementation of the "medium-pressure air-insulated switchgear manufacturing digital workshop", transit technology intelligent manufacturing workshop, Zhejiang Yueqing low-voltage electrical equipment industry cluster.
