Longde Power Supply: Proactively Delivering Solutions to Help Enterprises Overcome Challenges

On August 20, staff from the Customer Service Center of State Grid Ningxia Longde County Power Supply Company visited Ningxia Longde Artificial Flower Craft Co., Ltd. They delivered a customized "Monthly Electricity Consumption Diagnosis and Analysis Report" on site and held in-depth discussions with the company's relevant personnel on topics such as optimizing electricity usage, reducing electricity costs, and improving energy efficiency. Through precise and efficient power supply services, the company supports the high-quality development of "export-oriented" enterprises.

Ningxia Longde Artificial Flower Craft Co., Ltd. is a local manufacturing enterprise mainly producing artificial flowers, crafts, and home decorations. Its main products are exported to Europe, America, Southeast Asia, and other regions, with the United States alone accounting for 40% of its export volume. In 2024, its total sales reached 34.26 million yuan, with export sales accounting for 91.07%. The company provides employment for over 500 local residents. Among its employees, the proportion of left-behind women and empty-nest elderly is relatively high, including 46 disabled employees, providing an important source of income for vulnerable groups. The enterprise relies on precision equipment such as injection molding machines, drying units, and lighting systems, making it highly sensitive to power quality and electricity costs. Recognizing these needs, Longde County Power Supply Company included it as a key service target. Using big data from its electricity information collection system, the company organized technical experts to conduct a multi-dimensional analysis of historical electricity load, power consumption, power factor, and usage across peak, valley, and flat periods. This allowed them to accurately map the company's electricity profile and produce a detailed "Monthly Electricity Consumption Diagnosis and Analysis Report".

During the visit, power supply personnel explained the report in detail to the company's management, suggesting adjustments to the start and stop times of high-power equipment and implementing off-peak operation to reduce basic electricity costs. At the same time, they also recommended installing reactive power compensation devices to maintain a power factor above 0.95, enabling the company to obtain partial rewards from power factor adjustment incentives. In addition, the power supply personnel analyzed the transformer load rate and the proportion of electricity consumption during peak, valley, and flat periods based on the company's actual production, proposed more cost-effective electricity usage strategies, and assisted in inspecting internal power distribution lines and equipment to identify potential safety hazards.

"This report is incredibly timely and useful!" said Manager Pan from the Production Department, holding the report. "Previously, we only focused on using electricity without understanding its intricacies. The power supply company proactively came to us, analyzed our usage like a doctor conducting a check-up, and even prescribed a 'prescription' for saving electricity. By following these suggestions, we expect to save a considerable amount in monthly electricity costs. This support hits exactly the right point!"

In recent years, the company has continuously optimized the electricity business environment. By shifting from a passive response to active service, it has extended the service chain forward, helping enterprise reduce losses and improve efficiency, empowering the real economy, and achieving a win-win outcome for both power providers and users.
