Kaifeng, Henan: Stable Power Supply Paves the Way for Farmers’ Prosperity

Recently, over 100 mu of grapes in Lichangzhuang Community, in the eastern suburbs of Kaifeng City, Henan Province, entered the harvest season. At the grape cultivation base in Lichangzhuang Village, farmers are busy picking, sorting, and packing the fruits. Meanwhile, staff from the State Grid Kaifeng Power Supply Company Eastern District Power Supply Center are inspecting electrical equipment in the vineyard to ensure a reliable power supply for the base.

Covering an area of approximately 600 mu, the Lichangzhuang grape base mainly cultivates varieties such as Summer Black, Kyoho, and Rose Aroma, which are popular in surrounding areas. The grapes are grown in greenhouses, and every stage of their growth requires electricity. Coupled with the trend of live-streaming e-commerce sales, a stable power supply has become crucial for the vineyard.

To support rural revitalization and help growers increase production and income, staff from the State Grid Kaifeng Power Supply Company have visited the base to assess electricity needs related to grape irrigation, preservation, and processing. They have inspected switches, sockets, irrigation pumps, and other electrical equipment one by one to promptly eliminate potential safety hazards. Additionally, they have shared knowledge about safe electricity use with the growers.

During key periods of grape growth and production, the staff have proactively provided technical guidance at vineyards, cold storage facilities, and wineries, helping growers solve electricity-related problems.

Looking ahead, the State Grid Kaifeng Power Supply Company will continue to monitor industrial development trends, tailor its services to the electricity usage patterns of agricultural development, and provide regular follow-up power services. Moreover, it will further optimize service models, extend service chains, refine service measures, and improve service quality to bring high-quality services directly to growers. With a reliable power supply, it aims to pave a robust path for rural revitalization and prosperity.
