The First Solar Powered Cruise Ship Sailed In June 5Th.

The "Sun Yat Sheng" cruise ship has an area of 48 square meters of "solar wing".

In June 5th, on the thirty-ninth world environment day, China's first hybrid solar powered cruise ship, "Sheng Germany Sheng", set sail on the Huangpu River in Shanghai.

At the same time, we also held the signing ceremony of Shanghai's "Gigabit scale solar energy industrial base" project.

Yu Zhengsheng, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Secretary of the municipal Party committee, launched the first cruise ship's button.

City leaders Ding Xuexiang and Ai Baojun attended the ceremony of the maiden voyage.

The "Sheng Sheng Sheng" cruise ship, which is invested by Suntech Solar Power Holdings Limited, invested by China Shipbuilding Industry Corp, designed and manufactured by China Shipbuilding Industry Corp, and operated by Guosheng group of Shanghai, will provide sightseeing services to tourists during the period.

The ship is the first hybrid power ship with multiple energy sources in China. It imported solar power into cruise power for the first time, and introduced the hybrid mode into shipbuilding. Its most distinctive "solar wing" is 10 meters wide and 5 meters wide, and adopts 70 pieces of high efficiency crystalline silicon solar cells. It can track the direction of sunlight automatically, and comprehensively select wind and wind direction to maximize the use of solar energy.

The total length of "Sheng Germany Sheng" is 31.85 meters, 9.8 meters wide and 7 meters high, which can hold more than 150 tourists.

In order to promote the development of new energy new technology industrialization in Shanghai and to build the R & D innovation, core equipment, enterprise headquarters and demonstration and application base of the solar photovoltaic industry, the three parties of the Shanghai Economic Information Committee, the Minhang District government and the Suntech company have reached a framework agreement to promote the construction project of the "Gigabit solar energy production base".

Suntech invested 2 billion 860 million yuan in Minhang District to build "gigawatt level solar energy industrial base". The project was divided into four phases, and it was completed in 2011.

The "Sun Yat Sheng", which carried out the first flight ceremony yesterday, is very attractive on the Huangpu River.

Under different sunshine conditions, the power used for hull running can be automatically deployed between solar energy and diesel generating units, with a speed of nearly 15 kilometers per hour, and electricity saving and emission reduction can reach more than 30%.

The "Shang Sheng Sheng" is a highly environment-friendly and energy-saving ship. Its solar panel, the area of the solar wing, is 48 square meters. When the wind force is less than 5, the solar wing is always at the angle of absorbing the most efficient solar energy to collect solar energy efficiently. When the wind is between 5 and 6, the solar wing automatically chooses the direction according to the wind direction, the wind force and the sunlight. When the wind is above 6 level, the solar wing will fall to 30 degrees in 60 seconds to ensure the safety of navigation.

According to the introduction, according to the illumination conditions of Shanghai standard, the annual electricity generation of the "Sheng Sheng Sheng" can reach 17841 degrees, which is equivalent to saving about 6.282 tons of standard coal every year and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by about 15.705 tons per year.

Because the ship uses electric propulsion to avoid changing the frequency noise of the diesel engine, the diesel generator adopts the imported Kohler generator set of the United States, and the noise insulation cover is added. The noise level of the generator set is only 78 dB at 1 meters, and the cabin interior noise is only more than 50 DB, which is about 20 dB lower than that of the traditional diesel engine.

All ship lighting uses energy-saving lamps and LED lamps, which greatly reduce energy consumption and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Dr. Shi Derong, chairman of Shanghai Guosheng group, said: "Guosheng group is very pleased to cooperate with the leading Suntech company in the world photovoltaic industry, making use of the world's first class new energy technologies, and jointly developing and constructing the first solar energy sightseeing cruise ship in China, providing the opportunity for domestic and foreign tourists to visit World Expo in Shanghai." Sheng Germany Sheng "will serve as the designated ship for the World Expo Shanghai business union Pavilion in 2010, so that Chinese and foreign guests can enjoy the Expo theme in a less carbon way.

It is understood that the "Sheng Germany Sheng" will be officially launched on the Expo waterway in July.

Visitors who have successfully made an appointment with the "all round" reservation system of the Shanghai business union Pavilion will have the chance to enjoy the free full experience. By making the network, telephone and SMS booking methods published by the Shanghai Business Union's official website (www.expo2010scp.com), 20 lucky appointments will be generated every day, and Pujiang will be free to ride the "Shang Sheng Sheng Hao".
