Newly Installed Solar Streetlights Illuminate Changyang County, Yichang, Hubei

As night falls, 186 solar streetlights illuminate the 5.556-kilometer-long, 6.5-meter-wide high-standard cement road, winding through the mountains of southwestern Hubei, transforming it into a dazzling “star chain” and lighting the way home for villagers.

Newly Installed Solar Streetlights Illuminate Changyang County, Yichang, Hubei

After three years of construction, the road improvement project from Houshan to Taoping in Longzhouping Town, Changyang County, Yichang City, Hubei Province, has entered the operational maintenance phase and is scheduled for completion and acceptance on April 13th, after which it will be fully operational.

According to the project person in charge, the newly installed streetlights convert solar energy into electricity. Each streetlight can store 6 kilowatts of energy, providing six days of nighttime illumination even in cloudy or rainy weather.

It is estimated that this road section can reduce carbon emissions by 135 tons annually, equivalent to saving 135,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity and planting 6,200 new trees.

As a supporting project for the Qingjiang Pumped Storage Power Station, this luminous highway not only illuminates the nights of Changyang but also sparks the infinite possibilities of rural revitalization.

30. Installation and Commissioning of Solar-Powered Insect Monitoring Lamps Conducted in Bilahe National Nature Reserve, Oroqen Banner, Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia

Recently, the Forest Pest Control Station of the Bilahe National Nature Reserve Administration in Oroqen Banner, Hulunbuir City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, actively promoted forest pest monitoring and successfully completed the installation and commissioning of solar-powered insect monitoring lamps.

The solar-powered insect monitoring lamps installed at the station utilize advanced photoelectric numerical control technology, integrating functions such as insect attraction, insect killing, drying, and image acquisition, enabling efficient monitoring and control of pests. Staff carefully selected the site, pre-built a cement platform, and strictly followed the installation procedures to complete the fixing, connection, and commissioning of the equipment. During the commissioning process, all functions of the equipment were comprehensively tested to ensure its normal operation.

The installation and commissioning of this solar-powered insect monitoring lamp is an important measure taken by the Forest Pest Control Station of the Bilahe National Nature Reserve Administration to implement the concept of green development and improve its monitoring and early warning capabilities, laying a solid foundation for future forest pest control work.
