New Energy

Application Scope of New Energy

      As an emerging energy form distinct from traditional fossil energy (coal, oil, natural gas), new energy is rapidly transforming the global energy landscape. It covers various types such as solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, nuclear energy, biomass energy, geothermal energy, hydrogen energy, and ocean thermal energy, and boasts prominent advantages of cleanliness and sustainability, thus finding wide application in numerous fields. As an enterprise focusing on the production and R&D of terminals and connectors, Guangdong Deke Electric Co., Ltd. deeply understands the connection needs behind "new energy". Below is a detailed introduction to the application scope of new energy.

I. Power Generation Field

      Renewable resources such as solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, and geothermal energy play a dominant role in clean power generation. According to statistics from relevant online information platforms, by 2023, the global photovoltaic (PV) power generation capacity had exceeded 1000GW, with a strong growth trend. The vast western regions of China are rich in solar energy resources, where numerous large-scale PV power plants have been built to continuously convert solar energy into electricity, which is then integrated into the power grid to provide electricity for thousands of households.

      Wind power technology is also constantly innovating—modern wind turbines can operate and generate electricity at lower wind speeds. Offshore wind power, with its stable wind speed and high power generation efficiency, has become a new direction for wind power development. China’s offshore wind power installed capacity has been increasing year by year; for example, the East China Sea Bridge Offshore Wind Farm provides a large amount of green electricity for the Shanghai area.

      In terms of hydropower, the Three Gorges Hydropower Station, one of the world’s largest hydropower stations, has an installed capacity of up to 22.5 million kilowatts and an annual power generation of over 100 billion kilowatt-hours, strongly supporting the electricity demand in central and eastern China. Geothermal power generation is widely used in countries like Iceland, where approximately 85% of energy demand is met by geothermal energy. China, particularly in regions such as Tibet, is also actively developing and utilizing geothermal energy for power generation.

II. Transportation Field

      New energy has sparked a green revolution in the transportation sector. Electric vehicles (EVs), with lithium-ion batteries as their core technology, have developed rapidly, and their industrial chain has become increasingly sophisticated. EVs from brands such as Tesla and BYD are highly favored by consumers due to their excellent range, efficient charging speed, and intelligent driving functions.

      Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles excel in long-distance transportation and heavy-duty vehicle fields; models like the Toyota Mirai have been put into operation in some regions. Green ships have also emerged—by adopting electric and hybrid technologies, they significantly reduce carbon emissions. For instance, some inland river cruise ships and ferries have realized electric drive, reducing reliance on traditional fuel oil.

III. Residential and Commercial Building Field

      Solar panels are widely installed on the rooftops of residential and commercial buildings, enabling buildings to achieve self-sufficiency in electricity. Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) technology even skillfully integrates PV modules into building structures, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also greatly improves energy utilization efficiency. Some modern office buildings and residential communities use solar panels to generate electricity, meeting part of their daily electricity needs.

      Geothermal heating and cooling systems play a significant role in areas rich in hot spring resources—they provide stable and comfortable temperature regulation for buildings, reducing reliance on traditional heating and cooling equipment, as well as cutting energy consumption and carbon emissions.

IV. Industrial Application Field

       In traditional high-energy-consuming industries such as iron and steel, and chemicals, new energy sources like hydrogen energy are gradually replacing traditional fossil fuels, enabling the green transformation of production processes. Some iron and steel enterprises have begun to try using hydrogen instead of coke for ironmaking, reducing carbon dioxide emissions.

      Numerous factories and enterprises are actively building distributed PV power plants, installing solar panels on spaces such as factory rooftops. The generated electricity is prioritized for their own production needs, and surplus electricity can also be connected to the grid for sale—this reduces electricity costs and improves energy utilization efficiency.

V. Agricultural Field

      The "PV + Agriculture" model is developing vigorously, with innovative models such as "forest-PV integration" and "pasture-PV integration" constantly emerging. These models not only utilize solar energy for power generation but also do not affect agricultural production, realizing the efficient use of land resources.

      Biomass energy is also applied in the agricultural field—biomass resources such as crop straw are converted into biogas or biofuels through fermentation, providing energy for rural production and daily life. Solar irrigation systems and solar drying machinery are widely used in agricultural production, effectively reducing the energy costs of agricultural production and improving production efficiency.

VI. Urban Infrastructure Field

      Solar street lamps and wind-powered street lamps are widely used in urban streets and alleys, greatly reducing energy consumption for urban lighting. These clean-energy street lamps use electricity converted from solar energy and wind energy to emit light, eliminating the need for complex cable laying and featuring low maintenance costs.

      The public transportation system is also actively integrating new energy technologies—electric buses and subways travel through cities, which not only reduces exhaust emissions but also improves urban air quality. Some cities have also built new energy vehicle charging pile networks to facilitate the travel of electric vehicle users and promote the green development of urban transportation.
