Shanxi turns low-carbon technologies into tangible application
Updated: 2025-02-18
Numerous practical cases of low-carbon technologies abound at the LVG Carbon Neutrality and Environmental Protection Technology Park in Taiyuan, North China's Shanxi province, turning innovative low-carbon concepts into tangible application scenarios.
The park is exploring feasible zero-carbon technologies and products in areas such as buildings, energy, management, manufacturing, and waste. It provides research and development, pilot testing, and application scenarios for various green and low-carbon technologies.

At the park's zero-energy consumption demonstration room, the zero-energy consumption technology is used to exchange heat and cold cyclically based on solar energy and underground soil temperature to maintain indoor temperatures between 22 and 24 C throughout the year.
This technology has already obtained multiple patents and is widely used in highway service areas, industrial parks, schools, and museums. It is expected to be useful in various regions, including Shanxi, Beijing, Liaoning, and Guangdong.

Miniaturized solar applications, such as multifunctional solar street lights, solar benches, and fully enclosed smart solar trash cans, can be seen everywhere in the park. These showcase the integration of smart city construction and sustainable development.
Across the park, creatively repurposed waste products, including stylish tables and chairs made from used oil drums and fashionable furniture crafted from waste materials, demonstrate the boundless possibilities of waste utilization.
Applying these green and low-carbon technologies subtly integrates low-carbon concepts into daily life, laying a solid foundation for building a beautiful future in which humans and nature harmoniously coexist.
