Highlight case
Building smart photovoltaic systems to advance green development
Yuexiu Transport has always implemented the policy of “green development, energy saving and intensive, low-carbon and environmental protection” as a strong transport policy, putting into practice the concept of green development, and exploring new energy fields such as highway photovoltaic, striving to make positive contributions to the integrated development of transport and energy and to the country’s “carbon peak and carbon neutrality” strategic goal. The four subsidiaries of Yuexiu Transport (GNSR Company, Cangyu Company, Changzhu Company, Suiyuenan Company), in accordance with the circumstances and characteristics of the projects, have commenced the construction of photovoltaic projects in two modes: self-invested construction and contract energy management, with a total installed capacity of approximately 6.7 MW and an average annual power generation capacity of approximately 7.30 million kWh by the end of 2024 . The photovoltaic projects have economic value and at the same time make the transport operation and management more environmentally friendly and low-carbon.
Noise control
① Optimize route planning
Through scientific route planning and design, keep a reasonable distance from residential areas, try to keep vehicles away from residential areas, and reduce noise interference to the residents.
② Use noise-reducing asphalt
Use the high-performance environment-friendly ultra-thin wear layer (GET) technology to construct the thin overlay of cement concrete pavement, which is applied to the preventive maintenance of high-grade pavement and the maintenance of minor pavement diseases, with a noise reduction of 3-7dB as compared with the conventional pavement.
③ Noise barrier construction
Use green construction technology, and build noise barriers in key sections to block noise transmission.
