Super Dimension Technology Era

In Daqing City, southeast of Qiqihar City.

The State Grid, which had just completed its reorganization last month, dispatched a working group to Datong District in the southern region of Daqing City.

This team not only includes power grid managers, but also a platoon of soldiers. This time they plan to build a nuclear power plant in Datong, and this nuclear power plant cannot be managed conventionally and must be managed militarized.

Li Zhimin of the expert team was sitting on a Dongfeng pickup truck, and a cool breeze blew into the car. It was the time when the Northeast was suddenly warm and then cold.

Not far away is the Xinhua Thermal Power Station in Datong District. The location where the nuclear power plant is built is right next to the Xinhua Thermal Power Station.

In name, it is an upgrade and renovation project for the Xinhua Thermal Power Station, but in fact it is a nuclear power plant. This is a deception.

After entering Xinhua Thermal Power Station.

Yang Jiannan, the general manager of the power plant, has been waiting for a long time. After all, this time the State Grid directly parachuted the management, and he was also uneasy.

Sure enough, the management of the power grid was parachuted in and gave Yang Jiannan a slap in the face. More than a dozen power plant managers and employees who had seriously violated disciplines were directly taken down by Hou Guoshun, who had just arrived.

After dealing with these people, Hou Guoshun held a high-level meeting of the power plant.

"This time, I came here for two things. The first is the Datong Xinhua Thermal Power Station upgrade project, and the second is the rectification of the power system in Heijiang Province." Hou Guoshun said straight to the point.

More than a dozen local managers were uneasy.

"If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you make mistakes, you will be punished. Let me remind you that before doing something, it is best to consider the consequences." After Hou Guoshun gave his disdain, he continued:

"Comrade Li Kaigang."

"Here." A dull, middle-aged electrician stood up blankly.

He was also confused in today's meeting. He had been the leader of the machine repair team in a power plant for more than ten years, so he had no place in such a high-level meeting.

As confused as Li Kaigang, there were three other people.

"With the unanimous approval of the State Grid Corporation of China, Comrade Li Kaifu is now officially appointed as the director of the Logistics Department of Xinhua Thermal Power Station."

Li Kaigang was stunned. Fortunately, his colleague next to him pulled down his pants.

Li Kaigang reacted with a trembling voice: "Many... many thanks to Mr. Hou, as well as the head office for the promotion and trust."

"Comrade Li Kaifu, don't betray the trust placed in you by the people and the head office."

"must."

Next, three other people were appointed. These people are all employees with very rich experience at the grassroots level and work hard and responsible, but they have never been promoted.

Yang Jiannan on the side was also very surprised. He knew that these people had abilities, but they were too rigid and naturally had no chance of promotion.

Unexpectedly, Hou Guoshun knew the abilities of these people just after he arrived.

In fact, this is the result of big data screening by artificial intelligence. The Human Resources Department of State Grid, like Huanong Group, is also involved in artificial intelligence.

Those with problems will be removed directly, and big data will match two to three candidates based on job requirements.

The Human Resources Department cannot modify candidates without justifiable reasons. Once modified, there must be justifiable reasons.

In fact, due to the existence of the automatic avoidance mechanism, the human resources department generally does not modify candidates, because once modified, not only the candidate will be re-examined by artificial intelligence, but the person who modified it will also be investigated by artificial intelligence.

This entire system has effectively curbed the possibility of nepotism and back-room operations.

This is also the reason why Huanong Group and State Grid seem to have been completely transformed after they were merged into the Citizen Trustee Society. The powerful internal management mechanism, coupled with the supervision of artificial intelligence, has brought about a virtuous cycle.

…

After appointing these Li Kaigang and others to fill the vacancies, Hou Guoshun and Li Zhi's militiamen split into two groups.

Hou Guoshun led people to rectify the power system in Heijiang Province, while Li Zhimin led people to start preparations for the Datong Xinhua Thermal Power Station (nuclear power plant).

The power grid's own engineering company mobilized a large number of construction machinery and planned to complete the nuclear power plant's factory building and camouflage shell within three months.

Then proceed to the installation and construction of power distribution stations and substations, and finally the nuclear fusion reactor and related supporting facilities.

After Li Zhimin inspected the construction site, he learned about the construction progress of the other two nuclear power plants through the virtual network.

The other two nuclear power plants are located in Liaocheng City in Qilu Province and Laibin City in Guizhou Province. The project progress of these two nuclear power plants is also progressing steadily.

…

Haicheng County, Shanmei, Lingnan, near Lianhua Mountain in the northwest.

After just completing the construction of the substation and distribution station, the Lianhuashan Nuclear Power Plant began trial operation.

Dong Kuan and Wei Feng watched the staff in the power distribution room turn on the grid connection switch, officially marking the Lianhuashan Nuclear Power Plant transmitting power to the entire Lingnan region.

However, at this time, the power generation of the nuclear power plant was not 100% activated, only about 10% of the power was activated.

Because the power grid needs to shut down other power stations with an annual power generation of about 200 billion kilowatt hours in batches, it will take a certain amount of time to adjust.

With the gradual promotion of nuclear fusion power plants, it is estimated that China will shut down most of its thermal power plants, hydropower plants, wind power plants and photovoltaic power plants in the next five years.

After all, the electricity cost of traditional power plants is too high, and the power generation cost of nuclear fusion power plants is negligible.

Because the current production cost of one kilogram of deuterium is 7,000 yuan, but this production cost is because electrolysis of water requires a large amount of electricity. Isn’t this very interesting? If the electricity from nuclear fusion power plants is used to produce deuterium, the cost can be reduced to one-tenth. About one.

One kilogram of deuterium can theoretically generate 80 million kilowatt hours of electricity. The current efficiency of the power generation system is 58 to 59%, which means one kilogram of deuterium can generate 48 million kilowatt hours of electricity.

The maximum annual power generation capacity of Jinwu-1 is 200 billion kilowatt-hours, which consumes approximately 4,167 kilograms of deuterium. The cost of nuclear fuel is approximately 2.91 million yuan.

This nuclear fuel cost is simply insignificant compared with the 200 billion kilowatt-hour power generation capacity.

On the contrary, maintenance costs and labor costs have become the bulk of the cost, which is why the power grid dares to offer an electricity price of 0.2 cents per kilowatt hour, because this price is still profitable.

After Wei Feng, Dong Kuan and others saw the grid-connected power generation, they took a minibus to the next door to the power station, where the newly established Lianhuashan Power Generation Equipment Company was located.

In fact, it is the former research and development base of the Jinwu Project, which is now dedicated to the production of nuclear fusion reactors. The three nuclear fusion reactors needed by the power grid are manufactured here.

Wei Feng, Dong Kuan and others entered the assembly workshop. This is a general assembly factory, and many parts are provided by other companies.

For example, lasers provided by Shanghai Optical Machinery, heat-resistant materials, carbon liquids, etc. provided by Sisishe, as well as industrial computers provided by SMIC, involve dozens of companies.

This relies on a complete domestic industrial system. If it is a foreign country, it is estimated that it is difficult to be self-sufficient in even half of the parts and components.

Wei Feng looked silently at the assembly workshop, where the second Jinwu nuclear fusion reactor was being assembled. This one had some changes from the first one.

For example, it focuses on modular design to facilitate secret transportation after disassembly. In addition, a positioning system and a self-destruction system are installed.

"Fengzi, it seems there's not a big problem here." Dong Kuan pointed to the assembly workshop and said.

"There is really no big problem. Let's go back and discuss the issue of miniaturization!"

"good."

Controllable nuclear fusion is more difficult to miniaturize than Jinwu-1. This is the second direction of the Jinwu plan.
