Honeywell And TEDA Launch China’s First Smart Grid Demand Response Project

霍尼韦尔与泰达启动中国首个智能电网需求响应项目

Tianjin, China, January 5, 2012 – Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today signed an agreement with the Tianjin Economic-Technological Development Area (TEDA) to implement China’s first Smart Grid Demand Response project.State Grid Electric Power Research Institute selected Honeywell to develop the project in February. Today’s signing also represents the official launch of the Demand Response System Pilot jointly sponsored by the Chinese and United States governments through the U.S.-China Energy Cooperation Program (ECP), which aims to develop a nationwide set of smart grid industry standards and regulations in China.

天津1月5日消息——霍尼韦尔今日与天津经济技术开发区（TEDA）签署协议，实施中国首个智能电网需求响应项目。2月份，国家电网电力研究院选定霍尼韦尔实施该项目。今天的签约也意味着该需求响应系统示范项目的正式启动，这一示范项目是中美能源合作计划(ECP)的一部分，旨在推动中国智能电网行业标准和相关法规的开发和制定，得到了两国政府的全力支持。

Under the Honeywell-TEDA agreement, Honeywell will conduct a demonstration project using its automated demand response (Auto DR) technology at select facilities within the TEDA development area, including office buildings, government and commercial facilities, and industrial plants.

根据双方签署的协议，霍尼韦尔将在天津泰达术开发区的选定设施上部署自动需求响应(Auto DR)技术开展示范项目，其中包括办公楼、政府设施和商用楼宇以及工业厂房。

Buildings account for approximately 70 percent of all electrical use and a majority of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Honeywell’s smart grid technology and expertise connects the utility and its customers so they can automatically adjust energy consumption to reduce demands on the energy grid.

全球有大约70%的电力消耗和大部分的温室气体排放都来自于建筑物。霍尼韦尔的智能电网技术和专长将供电设施和其用户紧密相连，以帮助用户自动调整能耗，减少对电网的需求。

With Honeywell's Auto DR technology, customers establish customized energy reduction strategies for their facilities that are put into action automatically by utilities during a demand-response event. Through Auto DR, utilities can quickly and reliably reduce overall energy consumption during peak use periods, and commercial customers can cut their energy use and costs without compromising critical operations. Auto DR helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the need to run expensive “peak power” plants, which typically sit idle until customers require more electricity than the utility is able to provide using its primary, base-load generators.

利用霍尼韦尔自动需求响应技术，用户可以为其设施制定个性化的节能策略，在需求响应事件中，由供电设施自动执行。通过自动需求响应技术，设施可以在用电高峰时段快速可靠地减少总体能耗，而商业用户可以在不影响关键业务的情况下，降低能耗及成本。自动需求响应技术还有助于减少温室气体排放，降低电网在用电高峰时段的负荷，减少“峰值电厂”的昂贵运行成本，这些工厂通常处于闲置状态，只有在用户所需电量超过了供电设施日常负荷发电机的供电能力范围时才会启用。

Deployment of Auto DR can effectively reduce peak loads by 15 to 30 percent and, when done at scale, can create the effect of a “virtual power plant” that generates “negawatts” – or reduced demand – instead of megawatts. The project will help TEDA to improve its investment and operational profile, as well as make a contribution to energy efficiency and the environment.

部署自动需求响应技术可有效减少15%-30%的峰值负荷，如果大规模实施，就相当于建立了一个“虚拟发电厂”，提高电能的利用效率从而达到降低需求的效果。该项目有助于天津泰达经济技术开发区提升投资环境和运营环境，同时将为提升能效和推动环保作出贡献。

As the world’s largest energy user, China seeks to develop a “smarter” electrical grid to better manage the country's growing demand for energy and improve the reliability and efficiency of nation’s utility infrastructure. Adding intelligence to the grid will enable utility customers, such as energy-intensive commercial and industrial operations, to better manage how and when they use their energy based on its availability and price. China is expected to spend RMB 1.5 trillion on its energy infrastructure during the 12th Five-Year Guideline period ending in 2015, with the long-term goal of having a robust smart grid operational throughout the country by 2020.

作为全球最大的能源消费国，中国寻求建立一个“更智能”的电网，以此来更好地管理与日俱增的能源需求，并提高国家电力基础设施的可靠性和效率。电网智能化可以帮助能源密集的商业和工业用户，根据能源的可用性和价格来更加有效地管理用电的方式和时间。截至2015年的“十二五”规划期，中国在智能电网上的投资预计将达到1.5万亿元人民币，到2020年的长期目标是全面建成强大的智能电网。

“Cutting demand and consumption is cheapest and cleanest source of energy, and this project will create the bridge between the utility and its customers to make ‘using less’ easy and automatic,” said Stephen Shang, president of Honeywell China. “With the unique combination of advanced technology and energy experience and expertise from Honeywell, I am sure this demonstration project will not only bring economic benefits to TEDA, but will support the development of relevant standards and regulations for the broader deployment of smart grid solutions in China."

霍尼韦尔中国区总裁盛伟立表示：“减少需求和消费是最便宜、最洁净的能源管理手段，该项目将在供电方和用户间搭建桥梁，使节能变得更容易、更自动化。我相信，凭借霍尼韦尔先进的技术，丰富的能效经验和专长，这次示范项目将不仅会给天津泰达经济技术开发区带来优势，而且能为需求响应技术在中国更大范围的部署建立相关标准和规范提供支持。”

“We are honored to join hands with Honeywell to conduct China’s first smart grid demand response project at TEDA,” said Ai Yaming, Deputy Director of TEDA. “This is a very important energy saving initiative for TEDA on our mission to build a resource-efficient and environmentally-friendly environment. We are committed to making this pilot project successful, and look forward to deploying the Auto DR technology more broadly in the future.”

天津经济技术开发区管委会副主任艾亚民表示：“我们很荣幸与霍尼韦尔携手，在天津泰达经济技术开发区实施中国首个智能电网需求响应项目。这对于天津经济技术开发区建设资源节约型、环境友好型的社会目标，一个重要的节能环保举措。我们致力于这一示范项目的成功，并期待未来将在更大范围内部署自动需求响应技术。”
