State Grid Safeguards Spring Farming with Reliable Power Supply in Kaifeng

"In the past, what worried me most during spring irrigation was the water pump suddenly losing power. Now that the power company staff are out in the fields every day, we feel much more at ease!" Recently, in the wheat fields of Gaolou Village, Kaifeng City, an elderly farmer surnamed Zhang gave a thumbs‑up to the local power services.

To guarantee the electricity demands for spring farming, rural cultural tourism, and the needs of "agriculture, rural areas, and farmers," the State Grid Kaifeng Power Supply Company has moved its service locations directly to the fields, fully safeguarding spring farming production and supporting rural revitalization.

Given the characteristics of high power loads and the vulnerability of equipment to hidden dangers during the spring irrigation period, the company formed special spring irrigation power supply teams. These teams went deep into Wuniangzhuang Village, Gaolou Village, and other areas in Dongjiao Township to conduct comprehensive inspections and maintenance of agricultural drainage and irrigation lines, distribution transformers, meter boxes for motor-pumped wells, and leakage protection devices. This ensures that every piece of agricultural irrigation equipment can be turned on at any time and operate normally.

At the same time, staff visited vegetable greenhouses and planting bases, guiding farmers on the standardized operation of irrigation equipment and explaining electrical safety knowledge. For left-behind elderly residents and households facing difficulties, they proactively made home visits to connect power supplies and adjust water pumps, solving practical electricity problems. They also promoted the "State Grid Online" app, allowing farmers to handle electricity business without leaving their homes.

In addition, the State Grid Kaifeng Power Supply Company proactively connected with business operators such as homestays and agritainment businesses. They accurately assessed electricity loads and provided exclusive, full-process services from application to acceptance, empowering the quality and efficiency of rural tourism with reliable power.

Next, the State Grid Kaifeng Power Supply Company will continue to closely track the progress of the farming season. Relying on village-grid co-construction service points, it will implement 24‑hour emergency responses and increase the frequency of equipment inspections. With a full-capacity power supply, the company will safeguard a bumper grain harvest, protect the prosperity of rural industries, and empower rural revitalization.
