Editor's note: The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China drew a grand blueprint for Chinese-style modernization to comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. To study and implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China is to put it into solid and powerful actions to ensure that the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China takes root and bears fruit in the field of economics and information in Shanghai. U003c/pu003e In order to show that Shanghai's economic and credit people dare to be pioneers, explore first and take the lead in breakthroughs, starting from November, the Shanghai Economic and Credit Work Party Committee, Shanghai Economic and Information Commission and People's Network Shanghai Channel have opened a special column to report that Shanghai's industry is seizing green and low-carbon, meta-universe, intelligent terminals, and digital economy new races, actively laying out typical cases and vivid scenes of future industries, and more creative exploration and practice, presents the struggle picture of "spiritual power", the wonderful answer sheet of "ideological power" and the magnificent long scroll of "practical power", and interprets Chinese modernization. u003c/pu003e

"During the peak season of photovoltaic power generation, the photovoltaic power generation system generates up to 200000 kWh per month, and the renewable energy (electricity) generated can be immediately consumed by production, and the remaining power can be automatically fed back to the grid, enabling the remaining power to be connected to the grid. The project not only helped the plant save millions of electricity bills, but also provided the grid with millions of kWh of clean energy." This is the roof photovoltaic project of Shanghai Siemens Switch Co., Ltd., and it is also the roof photovoltaic project with the largest installed capacity of Siemens in China.
 

In December 2021, Shanghai Siemens Switch Co., Ltd. was also awarded the title of "National Green Factory. As a joint venture that has been deeply involved in China for nearly 30 years, how has it found a sustainable development path that is profitable and energy-saving and emission-reducing? From green product design to production automation, from raw material procurement to waste recycling and other energy-saving resources, how has the company achieved a low-carbon upgrade?

From medium voltage switchgear to photovoltaic power generation projects, sustainable development is the focus

"Next year, the company will celebrate its 30th anniversary." Dr. Christian Schwengels, general manager of Shanghai Siemens Switch Co., Ltd., introduced that Shanghai Siemens Switch Co., Ltd. was established on September 25, 1993 and was jointly invested by Shanghai Siemens Switch Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Electric Group. The company mainly produces vacuum circuit breakers and medium voltage switchgear, and is in a leading position in the market. The medium voltage switch products produced here have been widely used in domestic electric power, oil and gas, ships, automobiles, metallurgy and mining, electronic and electrical industries, as well as airports, hospitals, buildings, data centers, transportation and other urban and infrastructure fields.

Dr. Christian Schwengels has been the factory director for five years. He said: "From the perspective of the overall innovation market, the switchgear industry is a relatively traditional industry. The first thing everyone pays attention to is safety. From the perspective of hardware, the update is not particularly fast. However, from the perspective of software, the digital transformation of switchgear products is very fast, actively promoting sustainable development and energy conservation and emission reduction."
