Xinjiang Tianshan Tianchi promotes pollution reduction and carbon reduction to create an "all-electric scenic spot"

"In the past, Tianchi Scenic Area was all oil-burning buses, but now they are all electric vehicles, and the experience and comfort are very high. Recently, Tian Qiang, a tourist who came to the Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region for the fourth time, entered the parking lot for the fourth time, and the pure electric bus attracted his attention.

In recent years, Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area has adhered to pollution reduction and carbon reduction, continued to promote the use of clean energy, reduced energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in the scenic spot, reduced carbon dioxide emissions from the source, and completed the construction of 100% all-electric coverage in the core area of Tianshan Tianchi.

At present, there are a total of 40 pure electric buses in Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area, using lithium batteries as propulsion power, with a cruising capacity of more than 200 kilometers. Since 2020, Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area has continued to invest in the construction of 25 charging piles and two charging stations. "At present, the charging piles we have put into operation can fully meet the charging needs of all trams in the scenic area, and they can be fully charged in 1 hour and 20 minutes, and can run 3-4 times to meet the daily operation of the vehicle. Shen Haisheng, general manager of the transportation branch of Xiyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd., said.

While the pure electric bus achieves zero emission of exhaust gas in Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area, the operating cost per kilometer is reduced by about 40%, helping the scenic spot to move towards the rapid development of green energy. "The advantage of pure electric vehicles is environmental protection, zero pollution and zero emission in the operation process, which can improve the ecological environment and protect the ecological balance for scenic spots. In the later stage, we plan to increase the number of charging piles according to the number of pure electric vehicles to meet the charging needs of pure electric vehicles in the panoramic area. Shen Haisheng said.

At present, the core area of Tianshan Tianchi Scenic Area has been transformed into an "all-electric scenic spot" to promote the implementation of electric vehicles, electric cruise ships, all-electric catering and electric heating.

He Xianglan, director of the ecological environment management department of the Xinjiang Tianchi Management Committee, said: "Up to now, the scenic transportation has completed the replacement of clean energy, and 7 cruise ships, 5 restaurants and 100,000 square meters of heating have been fully electrified. We have also installed 25 sets of carbon monitoring equipment in the Snow Ridge Spruce to monitor the meteorological parameters, greenhouse gas concentrations and other related indicators of the scenic spot in real time, so that tourists can intuitively experience the carbon reduction effect of the scenic spot, and enjoy a more environmentally friendly, technological, convenient and safe experience while enjoying the good ecological beauty. ”
