As the only leading company which specializes in both agriculture and photovoltaic new energy industry in China and even in the world, Tongwei has unique advantages in resource integration at the terminal. It originated the innovative business model of “Fishery & PV Integration” of “clean energy above the water and safe aquatic products under the water”, which truly realized the coordinated development of agriculture and photovoltaics.
Tongwei New Energy, with the core concept of “PV changes the world”, is the investment platform of Tongwei photovoltaic terminal business. It focuses on the investment and development, planning and design, intelligent operation and maintenance of photovoltaic terminals. It is committed to building a world-class solar photovoltaic enterprise, a world-class clean energy company and an integrated operator of photovoltaic power stations with global competitive advantages.
Its subsidiaries, Tongwei New Energy Co., Ltd., Tongwei New Energy (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., and Tongwei New Energy Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd., focus on the investment and development of the "Integration of Fishery and PV". Tongwei New Energy Engineering Design Sichuan Co., Ltd. specializes in the research and development of PV terminal technology and power station design. Sichuan Fusion Link Technology Co., Ltd. concentrates on IT and the operation of "Integration of Fishery and PV" bases, providing comprehensive information and operation solutions for intelligent aquaculture and intelligent PV. Currently, Tongwei′s "Integration of Fishery and PV" features a total grid-connected capacity of 4.07GW.
Power generation benefits: 54 PV power stations featuring "Integration of Fishery and PV" have been completed, with an installed capacity of over 4.07GW.
Aquaculture benefits: Tongwei′s "Integration of Fishery and PV" has promoted the transformation of fishery aquaculture from a small-scale and decentralized agricultural production model to a modern, three-dimensional, IoT-enabled, intelligent, and eco-friendly aquaculture model, leading the trend of modern fishery development. Compared to traditional aquaculture, the "Integration of Fishery and PV" can increase the value by 5-10 times.
Environmental benefits: It promotes clean energy grid access and reduces CO2 emissions. Tongwei′s "Integration of Fishery and PV" has accomplished efficient and composite utilization of land resources. Each mu (0.165 acres) of aquaculture pond can generate 50,000 to 100,000 kWh of electricity annually, equivalent to the energy output of 10-20t of oil. This translates to savings of over 15t of standard coal per mu per year and a reduction in CO2 emissions by more than 50t, thereby continually highlighting the significance of its environmental benefits.
Social benefits: The integration of three industries creates a modern industrial park integrating new fishery, new energy and new countryside, driving industrial upgrading and transformation.
