Chapter 184 The First Thermal Power Plant
Haojiaping.

Today marks a major event: the country’s first 6MW thermal power plant is about to be completed and put into operation.

Compared with the original historical time and space, it was not until 1954 that Shanghai began to manufacture the first domestically-made imitation 0.6-kilowatt unit, which was eventually installed in the Huainan Tianjia'an Power Plant.

Although some of the core equipment of the Haojiaping Thermal Power Plant headed by Ren Zhong used products from Rogue Eagle and the entire process design also came from Rogue Eagle, most of it was independently produced.

It's hard to say what the quality is like now, you'll know once it starts running.

"Mr. Ren, our first thermal power plant will be started today. This is the largest thermal power plant in the country. Don't you have anything to say?" Li Jixiang, chief engineer of the thermal power plant construction, said excitedly.

He really didn't expect that he would complete the construction of the first thermal power plant in his life so early.

Although most of the information for this thermal power plant came from the ready-made design provided by Rogue Eagle.

But for the manufacturing of most of the equipment, the Liming Institute was responsible for design confirmation and manufacturing.

In other words, the Liming Institute now has the ability to independently complete the construction of the next thermal power plant.

This is a groundbreaking event in China's thermal power industry.

According to traditional saying, Li Jixiang is the founder of thermal power.

"Professor Li, I don't have much to say. It's all thanks to my comrades. I just talked and ran errands, and didn't do much technical work. Professor Li, as the chief engineer, you should preside over this ceremony." Ren Zhong smiled and handed the stage to Professor Li Jixiang, who had worked hard for several months, to enjoy the glory.

His perspective is simply out of tune with this world.

In his main world, coal-fired power plants below 30 kilowatts have begun to eliminate their production capacity, and 6MW (6 kilowatts) units are so small that no one has ever heard of them, so Ren Zhong really has no feelings, let alone the excitement of being at the forefront of the times.

Asking him to blow the small unit with passion, Ren Zhong couldn't muster the energy even in front of hundreds of excited people. In his mind, millions of kilowatts couldn't even be ranked, and blowing 6 was too awkward.

Let’s leave it to Professor Li.

Li Jixiang's face flushed slightly, and he was obviously very pleased with such an important task.

The largest in the country! This kind of thing is enough to encounter once in a lifetime, but what virtue and ability does Li Jixiang have? From hydropower to thermal power, Ren Zhong has given him countless opportunities.

At the age of over 40, Li Jixiang feels that he can still work for at least another 30 years! How many firsts in the country can he achieve? !
I dare not think about it, I really dare not think about it.

Professor Li stood on the stage and introduced to hundreds of builders the significance and breakthroughs of the Haojiaping Thermal Power Station, starting with the development history of domestic thermal power.

Ren Zhong stood aside, quietly waiting for Professor Li to vent his excitement, and then he pressed the symbolic start button amid the cheers of the crowd, indicating that the engine was officially ignited!
The staff took their positions amid cheers and actually ignited the boiler. The startup of a thermal power plant is very long, and the startup of a new unit is even more troublesome. As time passed, after a few hours, the boiler boiled and began to send out high-temperature steam, driving the turbine to rotate.

The lights in the thermal power plant were suddenly lit up!
Generating electricity!
Everyone cheered again, this was the successful start of the entire system's power supply!

As the power generation of the thermal power plant increased, Ren Zhong directed the shutdown of the hydropower units.

Now the load of the Dawn Research Institute has not reached 1MW. With a little effort from the thermal power plant, the load of the entire Dawn Research Institute can be supported.

Fortunately, an electric furnace steel plant was built nearby. Once electricity was generated, the electric furnace in the steel plant also started up.

According to the plan, today's trial run will increase the power to about 5MW. After 72 hours, it will start to increase the power to achieve full load power generation.

"How is the operation of the steel plant?" Ren Zhong, who was guarding the power plant, asked on the intercom after the power was supplied.

"The crushing system is normal, the feeding system is normal, and the electric furnace starts normally! In ten minutes, the electric furnace can be started for maximum load heating!" Someone reported excitedly on the other end of the intercom.

The successful one-time ignition was naturally due to the hard work of sorting out the entire system and testing.

Before the entire system was ignited, each subsystem passed the power-on test and some obvious faults had already been eliminated. It was within Ren Zhong's expectations to achieve such results now.

Although they had been guarding from morning until noon, no one felt hungry, let alone had time to eat.

This is a historic moment.

Many people wanted to participate in this great historical moment, and Polaroid cameras recorded many of the crowds at the scene.

Although Ren Zhong himself did not think much of the installed capacity, he still attached great importance to the significance of the thermal power plant. He took out two Polaroid cameras and recorded the history at the thermal power plant and the steel plant respectively.

By the time the first batch of molten steel came out, the combined operation of thermal power generation and steel smelting was successfully achieved. It was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon!

Amidst warm applause and passionate gazes, Ren Zhong stood in the center of the power plant workshop.

"Comrades, today's successful ignition of the thermal power plant and the steel plant is a small step for our Liming Institute, but it is a big step in the history of thermal power and steelmaking in our border area and even in China. This means that we have broken through the core technology of the 6MW thermal power generator set and can start to independently complete the construction of a thermal power plant. From today on, our country's thermal power can be built independently without relying on foreigners! Although we cannot publicize it under the current circumstances, I want to say that this is the pride of our Liming Institute, the pride of the border area, and the pride of our entire nation!
Today, we have not only broken through the shackles of history in the thermal power plant, but also created new history in steel smelting. With our own hands, we have built a brand new steel plant from scratch. We have also mastered many core technologies in steel smelting. In the future, this will surely become a new starting point in the history of our nation's steel development!
Let us applaud our achievements and cheer for the further development of our business!
Finally, I want to say that today we slaughtered pigs and sheep and had a feast to celebrate our achievements! I hope that everyone will continue to work hard and overcome the technical difficulties of 10,000 kilowatts, 30,000 kilowatts or even 300,000 kilowatts as soon as possible! At the same time, we will also turn the steel plant into a super steel plant with an annual output of 100,000 tons, 1 million tons or even 10 million tons! "

Ren Zhong's words completely ignited the scene. Everyone cheered and clapped their hands hard, ignoring the tears in their eyes and the red palms!

This is where we do our work!

New miracles will continue to be created here!
