These villagers will finally be able to use natural gas pipelines next year, spending their entire lives on firewood, liquefied gas, and steel cylinder funds | gas | liquefied gas
On August 21st, the water source gas access project initiated by the Party Committee and Government of Luojing Town in Baoshan District in cooperation with Gas City North Company officially began construction. The project involves approximately 50 million yuan in funding. After completion, more than 1100 households in Haixing, Huahong, and Xinlu villages will benefit from it. This project is also one of the top ten livelihood projects in Luojing Town in 2023.
The Chenxing Drinking Water Protection Zone in Luojing Town is one of the four major drinking water sources in Shanghai, with a total area of 324 hectares, responsible for 30% of Shanghai's raw water supply. With the deepening implementation of the rural revitalization strategy, Luojing Town has closely followed the relevant work requirements. All three villages in the water source area have completed enterprise demolition, comprehensive environmental improvement, water environment governance, and other work, basically achieving clear water and green banks. All three villages have been awarded the title of municipal demonstration villages for rural revitalization.
The living environment and living standards of villagers continue to improve, but their energy consumption methods are still backward, mainly using firewood and liquefied gas cylinders. This not only poses energy outage risks and safety hazards, but also has a certain impact on rural air quality. Bo Yongfa, a villager from Huahong Village, said that sometimes new gas cylinders are not prepared in advance, and when cooking, they suddenly find that they are out of gas. They have to wait for a while before replacing them with new gas cylinders. "The whole family is looking forward to using convenient and clean natural gas pipelines."
The relevant person in charge introduced that this gas to household project needs to face challenges such as the developed water system in Luojing Town, scattered village layout, and a pipeline engineering volume of 47 kilometers. In order to implement the livelihood project and complete it with quality and quantity, before the commencement ceremony, the Party branch of Luojing Town Construction Management Center and the Party branch of Baoshan Office of Gas City North Company signed a joint construction pairing agreement, leveraging the advantages of "government enterprise linkage and party building promotion", strengthening management, closely monitoring progress, and focusing on quality.
