Shanxi University of Technology Power Distribution Room Renovation Project – Building an Intelligent, Safe, and Efficient Campus Energy Heart

As the core power supply hub of the campus, the Shanxi University of Technology distribution room faced challenges such as aging equipment, insufficient power supply reliability, extensive energy consumption management, and low O&M efficiency. This renovation aims to create a modernized, digital, intelligent, and green power distribution system, providing high-quality power guarantee for teaching, research, and campus life.

1. Core Challenges & Solutions

Challenge ① Power supply reliability needs significant improvement to ensure uninterrupted teaching and research
✅ Solution:

Dual-circuit 10kV Intelligent Loop Power Supply System: Achieves automatic fault isolation and non-fault area restoration in milliseconds.

2N Architecture Power Distribution for Key Areas (Data Center, Laboratories): Equipped with industrial-grade UPS and fast-start diesel generator sets, ensuring zero interruption.

Comprehensive Equipment Upgrade: Replaces old switchgear with new-generation intelligent LV circuit breakers (featuring high breaking capacity, long service life).

Challenge ② Extensive campus energy management, high energy costs
✅ Solution:

Deploy Smart Energy Management Platform: Conducts precise itemized, circuit-based, and tenant-based metering for all campus buildings, key laboratories, and public areas.

Dynamic Reactive Power Compensation & Active Filtering: Manages grid harmonics, improves power factor above 0.95, avoiding penalties and reducing line losses.

Demand Side Management: Intelligently schedules high-load equipment like central air conditioning and lab equipment, achieving peak shaving and valley filling.

Challenge ③ Outdated O&M mode, reliant on manual labor, slow response
✅ Solution:

Build Digital Twin Power Distribution System: Real-time mapping of the distribution room's operational status via 3D visualization interface, achieving transparent management and control.

AI Early Warning & Diagnosis: Predictively alerts potential faults like equipment overheating, insulation aging, loose connections based on big data analysis.

Mobile O&M APP: Pushes alarm information, generates inspection work orders, enables remote switching operations, significantly improving O&M efficiency.

Challenge ④ Ensure normal campus power supply during renovation
✅ Solution:

"Phased Implementation, Seamless Cutting" Transition Plan: Conducts power-off renovations by area and phase during low electricity consumption periods like holidays and winter/summer vacations.

Deploy Temporary Power Supply System: Provides temporary power for critical loads, ensuring teaching, research, and core operations remain unaffected during renovation.
