Recently, Beijing Energy International’s carbon neutral integrated industrial project in Daxingzhuang Town, Pinggu District, Beijing—integrating “smart agriculture, eco-tourism, and smart energy”— stood out among more than a hundred submissions and was recognized as an Excellent Project in Beijing’s 2024 Advanced Low-Carbon Technology Pilot Program.
The selection, organized by the Beijing Municipal Ecology and Environment Bureau, was based on the 2024 Action Plan for Advancing the Construction of a Beautiful Beijing and Deepening the Battle Against Pollution (Beijing Government Office Document [2024] No. 4), the 14th Five-Year Plan for Climate Change and Energy Conservation in Beijing, and the 14th Five-Year Plan for Low-Carbon Pilot Projects in Beijing. The Bureau issued the Notice on the Implementation of the 2024 Beijing Low-Carbon Pilot Work (Beijing Environment Letter [2024] No. 42) in May 2024 to openly solicit project applications. After a rigorous review process that evaluated each project’s technological advancement, pioneering position, implementation progress, and carbon reduction effectiveness, 13 projects were selected as “Excellent Projects in Beijing’s 2024 Advanced Low-Carbon Technology Pilot Program.”
In the field of smart agriculture, the company partnered with Beijing University of Agriculture to establish a “Doctoral Farm.” The project integrates soilless cultivation, fertigation technology, and agricultural IoT systems, resulting in a 20% increase in planting density and more than a 15% boost in yield. It enables high-quality, high-yield fruit and vegetable production and bridges the “last mile” of translating agricultural research into real-world applications. It supports Pinggu District’s development of a high-quality “Agricultural Zhongguancun” and serves as a model for innovation in smart agriculture.
In the eco-tourism sector, the park combines clean energy with technological agricultural landscapes to build a low-carbon agricultural research and education base. This fosters a new eco-tourism model combining green production with science education, aligning with China’s rural revitalization strategy and boosting rural industrial integration.
In the area of smart energy, the Daxingzhuang project leverages photovoltaics, air-source heat pumps, and intelligent management platforms to build a green, smart, and efficient integrated system. This facilitates the transformation of agriculture toward a more efficient, eco-friendly, and low-carbon direction. Since beginning operations in April 2024, the project has generated a total of 1.73076 million kWh of green electricity, equivalent to saving 531.25 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon emissions by 1,651.25 tons.
Looking ahead, the company will leverage this recognition to further its commitment to green development, continuously improve its technological expertise and service quality, and contribute more to the capital’s green and low-carbon transition.
