According to reports, this photovoltaic power station is expected to generate about 140,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year and generate more than 120,000 yuan in revenue each year. After deducting operating costs, 43 households will receive 2,500 yuan per year in the next 20 years. At the end of the year, 3000 yuan was distributed.
“The total power generation of the previous day was 616 kWh. According to the electricity fee income of 0.85 yuan per kWh, we can earn more than 500 yuan!” On March 22, Liandong Village, Lvdong Village, Songshan Township, Luoyuan County, passed the legislation. The mobile phone APP knows the power generated by the photovoltaic power station built on the roof of the county weather bureau without leaving the house and converts the revenue of the day. “You can receive dividends at the end of the year, and there is income from the sun, and you are really at ease.”
The pragmatism of Luoxiong County comes from the fact that Luoyuan County has given him special care for poverty alleviation as he has no ability to work. County Meteorological Bureau roof photovoltaic power station is built for them. The first batch of 43 households with no capacity for work to get rid of poverty will receive stable income from photovoltaic power generation each year, and will benefit continuously for 20 years.
In Luoyuan County, a total of 2,990 poor households have been established. Among them, 176 households with 314 people are completely unable to work. How to ensure that these poverty-stricken families who are completely unable to work can achieve stable poverty alleviation?
“Almost all of them are disabled, and most of them can only rely on transfer income to maintain their lives, such as condolences, subsistence allowances, and pensions. It is difficult to stabilize poverty through employment and entrepreneurship, and they must explore a lasting way out of poverty. Luo Qi, deputy director of the Poverty Alleviation Office Luo Gongqi said.
The photovoltaic poverty alleviation model that has been welcomed in recent years has entered the perspective of Luoyuan County. However, the previous photovoltaic poverty alleviation model was generally based on the construction of photovoltaic power stations directly on the roofs of impoverished villages or poor households, and the benefits of power generation belonged to the village collectives and required secondary distribution. In addition, the construction costs of photovoltaic power stations and the maintenance costs that are created by too much dispersion are problems that need to be resolved.
Breaking the puzzle requires innovation. Luoyuan County has explored a new type of photovoltaic poverty alleviation method that specifically cares for poverty-stricken families without labor capacity:
The location of the power station is provided free of charge by all units. The staff of the County Poverty Alleviation Office spent a few months to find out about the situation in the whole county and visit various departments at all levels. After repeated investigations and surveys in the early stage, the venues satisfying the conditions will be used as a venue for the construction of photovoltaic power stations. Construction.
Power station construction funds are spent from poverty alleviation funds. The 1,400 square meters power station constructed on the roof of the county meteorological bureau has invested a total of 850,000 yuan, benefiting 43 households from poverty alleviation, and investing 11,000 yuan in special subsidies for poverty alleviation (5000 yuan for central government poverty alleviation funds and poverty alleviation at the provincial level The funds are 3,000 yuan and the county's "Spring Breeze Action" is 3,000 yuan. The rest is supplemented by the municipal government's PV pilot subsidy and county poverty alleviation funds.
Power station maintenance is the responsibility of the county-owned construction company. Non-human damage within 5 years, free maintenance; 5 years later, only charge for material costs. In addition, the county-level construction company also applies for insurance for the power station and invests 3,000 yuan each year in insurance to reduce losses caused by typhoons.
Poverty-stricken households directly receive power station revenue. The county-level construction company, as the owner unit, signed an agency agreement with 43 households with no capacity to work in poverty alleviation. After the revenue generated by the power generation is remitted to the urban construction company by the power supply company, the urban construction company will directly transfer the proceeds to the poverty-stricken households. personal account.
At present, after one month of construction, the photovoltaic power station on the roof of the county weather bureau has passed acceptance and is connected to the grid for power generation. According to reports, this photovoltaic power plant is expected to generate about 140,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, which will generate more than 120,000 yuan in revenue each year. After deducting operating costs, 43 households will receive between 2,500 and 3,000 yuan per year in the next 20 years. Dividends at the end of the year.
Photovoltaic power plants that draw energy from the sun have brought a glorious light to the poverty-stricken families who are completely unable to work. “My sister and I are both disabled and my parents are old. I don’t have the ability to work in a family of four. With a photovoltaic power plant, there is hope for life!” said Toshihide.
At present, Luoyuan County is gradually promoting this practice throughout the county. The second PV power station is planned to be built in Luoyuan Vocational Middle School. It will benefit 99 families who are completely unable to work.
