Interstellar Industrial Age

v2 Chapter 208: Very profitable

"I said that this project will definitely make money, but I did a rigorous calculation in advance ~"

Wang Songling smiled, and seemed to be moved by Lu Qingwei's proposal.

"Count it and listen ~"

When Lu Qingwei heard it, he immediately became interested. He is now very interested in making money projects.

"There are generally two types of solar power generation technology that we use today. One is crystalline silicon material, there are two types of monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon, and the other is amorphous silicon power generation, which is not crystalline silicon. solar energy generation."

"Crystalline silicon solar panels are basically useless in low light environments, while amorphous silicon solar panels can still work well in low light."

"But the conversion rate of the amorphous is low, and now it is more used crystalline silicon solar power."

As the person in charge of Xinghe Solar Energy Group, Wang Songling was originally the person in charge of researching space solar power generation. However, he was very familiar with this aspect and began to figure it out with his fingers.

"The best monocrystalline silicon solar power panels can generate 0.2 kilowatt-hours, which is 0.2 kilowatt-hours per hour. Of course, this is on Earth. If it is in space, because there is no weakening of the atmosphere, the sun in space The intensity is more than ten times that of the ground. Even if we are 10 times, one square of single crystal silicon solar power panel can generate 2 degrees of electricity in one hour in space. "

"In space, we can generate electricity without gaps for 24 hours. It will not be affected by day and night like the ground. Solar power panels can work in the best direct light conditions for 24 hours. This power generation efficiency is quite possible."

"Let's simply calculate that a square solar panel can generate 2 kilowatts of electricity in one hour in space, and 48 kilowatts of electricity 24 hours a day."

"This time, the space solar power stations we built each have 10,000 meters in length and width and an area of ​​100 million square meters. They can generate 4.8 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity a day, and 175.2 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year."

"1.7 trillion kWh?"

Hearing Wang Songling's calculations with his fingers, I was shocked.

Lu Qingwei originally thought that the power station might not make any money. Now hearing this horrible figure, the whole person was frightened.

What is the concept of generating 1.700 billion kilowatt-hours a year? The annual output of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station is only about 100 billion kilowatt hours. .

How horrible this power generation is, when it's not counted, I really think it's nothing. After careful calculation, my obedience is almost equivalent to 17 Three Gorges Hydropower Stations.

"Even if this unit of electricity is calculated on the basis of 50 cents, this space solar power station can almost generate more than 800 billion yuan in output value in a year."

Lu Qingwei couldn't help shaking his head again and again, this business can be done.

Then thought about it and said, "How about this construction cost?"

Lu Qingwei knows that anything is cost-effective when it comes to cost. This is very clear. The space solar power station can really generate electricity, but this initial investment, maintenance costs, etc. must also be carefully calculated. If it is too If it is high, no matter how large the power generation is, it will be tasteless and unfortunate.

"One of the biggest costs of photovoltaic power generation is the storage battery, which accounts for almost half. Of course, this was the case before. With the advent of our company's atomic matrix battery, the cost of photovoltaic power generation has been greatly reduced."

"Since this period of time, photovoltaic companies around the world have begun to rejuvenate, because everybody calculates that if you use atomic matrix batteries, you can greatly reduce the cost of power generation. With new energy subsidies, photovoltaic power generation is profitable. "

"Since this period of time, the sales of our company's atomic matrix cells have increased, and the proportion of atomic matrix cells purchased in the field of photovoltaic power generation has started to rise."

Wang Songling thought and said slowly.

"Atomic matrix cells are purchased internally by our company, and the cost of this piece is basically negligible. We have purchased large-scale photovoltaic panels, and the price has been said to be very low."

"Calculating the cost of building this solar power station in space is about 100 billion yuan."

"100 billion?"

"How low ~"

When Lu Qingwei heard the numbers, he couldn't help but blink his eyes.

"Otherwise ~ we have our own atomic matrix battery and our own spacecraft, that is, purchasing photovoltaic power generation panels, where the cost is high."

Wang Songling said with a smile.

"How much would it cost for an external business or individual to build a space solar power plant of this size?"

Qin Yi kept listening and thought about asking Wang Songling.

The internal and external costs of the Galaxy Technology Group are naturally completely different. Building a solar power station in space is just what Qin Yi did in order to be a leader.

Although power is generated in space, it is not technically essential in nature and is not in line with the status of a high-tech enterprise of Xinghe Technology Group. Qin Yi only intends to use this to drive domestic capital and theory to develop in this field. This cost is critical.

"If it is an external company, the cost should be at least 10 times ours. Building a space solar power station of the same size requires at least 100 billion yuan. Even if there is no spaceship, this cost will rise to about 1.2 trillion yuan ~"

Wang Songling was very clear about these figures, and spoke them out almost without thinking.

"Even if it is calculated at a cost of 1.2 trillion yuan, it is very profitable."

"Ten trillions of huge capital investment can be recovered in less than two years. The rest of the rest are made, and the profits are quite considerable."

Lu Qingwei said carefully.

"In fact, there is absolutely no need to invest in a large space solar power station from the beginning. There are tens of millions and hundreds of millions of small solar power stations in space."

"The efficiency of this power generation is so high. This return is actually irrespective of the size of the investment. For example, the simplest is to build a small space solar power station 100 meters by 100 meters."

"The 10,000 square-square-meter solar power station can generate 480,000 kilowatt-hours a day and 170 million kilowatt-hours of electricity a year. It also has a profit of 80 million a year, which is quite considerable."

"And according to your calculation, Pharaoh, the investment of this 10,000 square-foot space solar power station only needs about 120 million."

Qin Yi also calculated carefully, and suddenly felt that this space solar power generation field is still okay.

"No ~ No ~~"

"If we enter the field of space solar power on a large scale, the output of our space solar power station alone is so horrible. It is equivalent to the seventeen Three Gorges. Can we use huge amounts of electricity?"

"At that time, this electricity will not be the price of cabbage, it can't be counted."

Lu Qingwei soon found something wrong and shook his head again and again.

"Too much power generation will definitely reduce the price of electricity, but our country can also use it to shut down those thermal power and replace it with clean energy."

"In addition, once the interstellar space age arrives, there are many places that consume electricity. Besides, our spaceships alone are properly electric tigers, which consume a lot of power."

"It doesn't take long to carry millions of kilowatts of electricity at a time. In addition, our smelting plant above the moon uses an ionization reactor and is also an electric tiger, and the daily power consumption is extremely amazing."

Qin Yi said with a smile.

The development of civilization is the history of transportation, and it is also the history of energy development.

People in ancient times only knew that burning wood, straw, and the like. After entering the industrial revolution, coal became king. Once the coal was as important as the current oil.

After coal, there is oil. Now oil is still the blood of industry, and the energy of the interstellar space era is electricity. Everything is built on electricity.

Spacecraft uses electricity, interstellar mining uses electricity, future space factories, space farmland, etc. will still use electricity, and everything is inseparable from electricity. With the development of the interstellar industrial era, the consumption of electricity will become more and more scary And terrible.

There is no need to worry about the trouble of not being able to run out because of too much electricity produced.

In particular, Qin Yi is very clear that when the space factories bloom everywhere and the asteroid mining industry rises, the power consumed by any enterprise will be extremely horrible. At that time, what needs to be worried about is insufficient power, not excessive power.

"This is because the ionization reactor of the smelting plant above the moon is really an electric tiger. It is the largest share of my current expenditure. Every day, the electricity bill alone costs me hundreds of millions."

Hearing Qin Yi's words, Lu Qingwei then sounded the extremely high power consumption of the ionization reactor in the Lunar Mining Group's Lunar Smelting Plant.

"Pharaoh ~ Let's discuss something ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ After your space solar power station starts generating electricity, can you sell it to me at a cost price? You have such a huge amount of power generation, don't find a few power consumption If you have a big family, you will never run out of points by then ~ "

Then Lu Qingwei leaned on Wang Songling's shoulder and began to discuss the purchase of electricity.

Now all the electricity of Xinghe Technology Group is purchased from outside. It is only an expense of electricity. It is an astronomical figure every year. The power consumption is too large.

In particular, the Lunar Mining Group in charge of Lu Qingwei is simply an electric tiger. No amount of electricity is enough to swallow it. Although the ionization reactor is very convenient and environmentally friendly to smelt rare earths, this power consumption is not covered.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh at at the same time to have a good deal of electricity, but you also know that I owe a lot of debt now?"

"What's the embarrassment ~ We are brothers ~"

"..."

PS: I do n’t know if the calculation is accurate, after all, math is taught by a physical education teacher ~~
