The day before, the state council announced the results of the first batch of 2018-2019 National Quality Engineering Awards. The general contracting of China Coal XinjiliXinbanji Coal Power Integration 2×1000MW Unit Project (hereinafter referred to as the "BanjiMillion-Kilowatt Unit Project"), and the design of the Huaneng Shandong Ruyi Sahiwal 2×660MW Coal-Fired Power Plant Project (hereinafter referred to as the "Sahiwal Project") won the National Quality Engineering Gold Medal Award, covering all the honours in the thermal power category. At the same time, there were four projects from SDEPCI won the National Quality Engineering Awardthe, inlcudingHuanengLaiwu Power Plant million units designed by SDEPCI "Turn on the large generator set and shut down the small generator set（TLSS)" expansion project, Qinghai Xining Thermal Power Plant TLSS construction, DatangBinzhou cogeneration (2 sets of 350,000 kilowatts) project and the Zhisheng -Mizhou 500kV Transmission Line Project.
The National Quality Engineering Award is a national quality award in the field of engineering construction across industries and professions confirmed by the state council, to promote the spirit of "pursuing excellence and creating classics". This award advocating and enhancing the systematic, scientific and economical quality management of engineering, and publicising and commending engineering projects with excellent design, fine quality, good management, good efficiency, advanced technology, energy saving and environmental protection.
After six months of high standard one-time double-commissioning of the Banji project contracted by SDEPCI in March 2017, the main economic and technical indexes are better than the design value, fully ahead of the same type of units, and the energy efficiency level is close to that of the secondary reheat million units. The Banji project set a new record for the construction cycle of domestic million units, the No. 2 unit in this project also broke the record of uninterrupted continuous operation of domestic million-kilowatt units after commissioning for the first time - 148 days of continuous safe operation since the 168-hour test run, and has won a number of power industry honours. In the construction of Banji project, SDEPCI gave full play to the advantages of EPC general contracting led by design includes over 20 years of engineering contracting management experience and the contracting project management system. SDEPCI constructed a tailor-made 64 project management procedure documents for Banji, from the perspective of safety, quality, progress, environmental protection to form an all-round management of the closed loop. SDEPCI also took the lead in setting up a "four-square" management system for the project, including the owner, general contractor, construction manager and supervisor, so that the slogan of "One Team, One Goal" could be put into practice through the organisational system. Based on the high-end forward-looking management concepts and systems, SDEPCI changed the traditional electric power engineering construction process in the Banji project, deeply integrated the "design-procurement-construction" three major segments, through the refinement of the project management. So that SDEPCI are able to build a superior performance, reliable, clean and efficient benchmark power plant, and became the domestic EPC general contracting + million units of the construction model.
The Sahiwal project designed by SDEPCI has created the "Sahiwal Speed" in the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor with a design cycle of 9 months and has become the first large-scale energy project along the "Belt and Road" route to be fully designed and commissioned by adopting Chinese standards. With the technical accumulation in the field of designing large-capacity and high-parameter units, and adhering to the concept and efforts of serving the owner with sincerity, SDEPCI realized a package of innovations in the Sahiwal project, which resulted in 13 patents, 8 know-how, 27 theses, 42 new technologies, and 55 special reports, and saved hundreds of millions of yuan for the owner. For the first time, the project adopts a series of design innovations, new technology applications, and design optimization, such as the innovative use of the full circumferential steam inlet, four-cylinder, four-row steam turbine, new-generation high-pressure cylinder structure, and coaxial arrangement of steam pumps and pre-pumps on a supercritical unit, which makes the project achieve the highest power generation efficiency and the best indexes among the same types of units and the same period. Previously, the project won the Design Gold Award issued by the Ministry of Energy of Pakistan - the first national award for design in the history of engineering construction in Pakistan, and the highest honor for outstanding engineering design in Pakistan's power industry. The completion and commissioning of the Sahiwal Coal-Fired Power Station has demonstrated to the world the strength, talent, and expertise of Chinese enterprises, and set up a "Belt and Road" engineering benchmark.
In recent years, based on technological innovation and management innovation, and with market development as the gripping hand, SDEPCI has continuously built its core competitiveness pushed forward the transformation of the enterprise. In 2018, Shandong Insitute won a total of 110 engineering awards above the provincial levels management awards, of which one is international and 16 are national, breaking through one hundred awards for the second consecutive year. SDEPCI's technological level, management level, and comprehensive ability have entered the forefront of the industry and the country, laying the foundation for the enterprise to achieve transformation and providing sufficient and reliable new kinetic energy for the Group's vision of building a world-class clean energy enterprise with global competitiveness.
