With "Full Power" Energy Ensuring a Vibrant Travel Season

0

RIZHAO, China, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — During the colorful summer, the peak of the tourist season, visitors from all directions flock to experience the beauty of Rizhao. When traveling, the most important aspect is having a pleasant experience in all aspects—clothing, food, accommodation, transportation, and entertainment. Such enhanced experiences are inseparable from the stable and reliable supply of electricity.

Each tourist season, when electricity demand spikes, poses a significant challenge for our company. To ensure a reliable power supply in coastal tourist areas during the peak summer season and provide citizens and tourists with a splendid and comfortable living environment, State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company has taken several measures. These include proactive upgrades and renovations of power lines, continuous technical inspections, emergency response planning, and tailored power guarantee plans for each village guesthouse, thereby safeguarding the tourist attractions with "full power" during the busy season.

Dedicated Services for Green Travel: "Recharge for the Journey"

On August 17th, at the Sunshine Garden New Energy Vehicle Charging Station, two employees from State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company were inspecting the charging stations with infrared thermometers to check for any anomalies in the equipment.

"Such inspections are conducted periodically. Even before the tourist season starts, we have already completed several rounds of checks to ensure that the charging facilities operate flawlessly during the peak season," said Wang Jian, an employee at the company. To date, comprehensive inspections have been carried out on six charging stations in the coastal tourist area, eliminating 15 potential risks and significantly improving both the charging service and power supply quality.

To meet the charging demands of tourists during peak travel times, State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company adheres to the principle of "synchronized vehicle and charger deployment, strategic layout, intelligent efficiency, and strong guarantees." They facilitate the green channel for charging facilities, accelerate the construction of charging infrastructure, and promote coordinated development between vehicles, chargers, and the power network. Charging stations are now available at key urban attractions and commercial centers such as Wanpingkou Scenic Area, Sunshine Coast, Forest Park, Wanda Plaza, and Vientiane City, extending the "10-minute charging circle" and providing efficient and swift charging services to citizens and tourists.

"Finding out that the electric charge was low and seeing a charging station at Wanda Plaza where we planned to go was incredibly convenient. We were able to recharge the car during a meal break; it’s truly convenient," said Mr. Wu, a tourist from Henan, expressing no range anxiety during his visit to Rizhao, thanks to the readily available charging stations shown on the map.

Before the tourist season, State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company has already operationalized 32 public charging stations and over 230 direct current (DC) charging piles, along with more than 4500 individual alternating current (AC) charging piles, fully ensuring the charging needs of tourists for a safer and more comfortable green travel experience.

Lean Operations to Win the Power Supply Protection Battle

"Phase A 42.5 degrees, Phase B 38.9 degrees, Phase C 43.2 degrees…" On August 17th, inside the distribution room of Qiao Jiadunzi Tourist Town, two specialized service team members from State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company were conducting infrared thermographic inspections on the transformer input cabinets, checking for overheating in line clamps and cable joints.

During the peak tourist season, State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company employs a human-technical joint defense strategy, excelling in operations to eliminate hidden dangers. Utilizing comprehensive electrified monitoring techniques such as drone discharge detection and infrared thermography, the company has conducted 1622 person-times of uninterrupted inspections, covering all areas. Weekly inspections of each pole and substation area are carried out, focusing on heavily overloaded lines, substations, and crucial infrastructure in key scenic areas and hotels. Live-line maintenance has rectified 28 deficiencies, and 15 notices of potential hazards were issued to customers with assistance provided for rectifications.

State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company leverages digital intelligence for efficient coordination in power supply assurance. It assigns personnel to monitor distribution line load in real-time, optimally reallocates loads on heavily burdened lines, and effectively redistributes loads in tourist areas. Twelve lines, including the Tai Line and Dong Town Line, are under special load surveillance, with immediate measures such as phase adjustment, load shedding, and substation capacity enhancement being applied in cases of severe overload.

Moreover, collaborative efforts across specialties have developed emergency response plans for 10 kV line faults, substation faults, low voltage faults, and internal customer faults in the coastal tourist areas. The company adopts a differentiated "day + night" standby assurance strategy based on varying load demands at different times, adhering to the principle of "better safe than sorry."

"We’ve turned the tourism off-season into a golden period for transformation. Since initiating the coastal tourist area power supply fortification campaign in February last year, we have upgraded 23 lines with a tailored strategy for each. This year, based on last year’s work, we completed power upgrades in Zhangjiatai and Dachenjiacun, adding two new lines to further ensure power supply in the coastal tourist areas," introduced Wang Zhaolong, the distribution specialist at State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company.

Close to Customers, Weaving a Comprehensive Power Supply Service Network"Hello, summer is the peak phase for electricity usage, and electrical safety is very important. Here is a detailed guide on safe electricity usage for your review." Recently, specialized service team members from State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company have been engaging directly with businesses and tourists in Qiao Jiadunzi Tourist Town, promoting electrical safety knowledge up close.

"The power supply this summer has been very stable, with no outages, and your service is commendable," said Liu Shaopeng, who runs a guesthouse in Qiao Jiadunzi Tourist Town, as he browsed through the electricity usage guide.

During the peak tourist season, State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company collaborated with various entities such as tourist attractions, coastal guesthouses, hotels, and supermarkets to identify 73 potential electrical hazards. The company developed emergency plans and conducted drills, advising users on load forecasting. Each week, the company visits two cultural villages and one tourist town to conduct "one-on-one" and "door-to-door" electrical inspections and service outreach activities. These efforts aim to understand the power needs of customers and tourists, devise tailored power assurance plans for each village, and build a safety net for electricity usage. "Considering the high electricity demand in guesthouse villages, we specifically expanded the capacity of transformers and lines for these users to ensure stable power supply during the high season," explained Li Bin from State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company.

Additionally, State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company has held seven joint consultations on power supply services with Wolongshan Street Office and coastal tourism villages. Leveraging government grid management resources, the company conducted 15 activities related to customer record management, electricity service safety, and policy outreach, effectively narrowing the gap with customers.

By focusing on electrical safety and proactively managing supply, the company aims to win the battle for power protection and weave a comprehensive service network. Providing tourists with safer, more reliable, and high-quality electrical services has always been the goal and direction of State Grid Rizhao Power Supply Company. Moving forward, the company will continue to uphold its mission of "Electricity for the People," intensify inspections, enhance the electricity business environment, and improve service levels. With "full power," State Grid Rizhao aims to bring new vitality to the Rizhao coastal tourism experience.

NUS scientists discover novel approach to rejuvenate aged egg cells

0

Groundbreaking findings provide a proof-of-concept development of a non-invasive cell-based method to improve the quality of eggs from older females for IVF

SINGAPORE, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Researchers from the Mechanobiology Institute (MBI) at the National University of Singapore (NUS) and the NUS Bia-Echo Asia Centre for Reproductive Longevity and Equality (ACRLE), based at the NUS Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine (NUS Medicine), have developed an innovative technique to significantly enhance the reproductive potential of aged oocytes, or immature egg cells, potentially paving the way for better outcomes of assisted reproductive technologies, such as in-vitro fertilisation (IVF), for older females. The team demonstrated the rejuvenation of oocytes from an older preclinical model by using a young follicular environment to partially restore its reproductive function, and in turn, generated a better quality egg for IVF.

Female reproductive ageing is a natural process that is associated with changes in a woman’s reproductive system over time, including a sharp decline in egg quantity and quality. With many women choosing to have children later in life, understanding and mitigating the impacts of ageing on egg cell quality has become crucial to develop strategies for successful egg cell maturation, fertilisation, and embryo development.

Working at the forefront to understand the mechanics behind female reproductive ageing, a team of researchers led by Professor Rong LI, Director of MBI, and Dr WANG Haiyang, Senior Research Fellow at MBI, and IVF scientists and clinicians from NUS Medicine and ACRLE, has constructed and used hybrid ovarian follicles extracted from a preclinical model to provide direct evidence that an aged follicular environment could harm the quality and developmental potential of young oocytes. More importantly, the team demonstrated that an oocyte from an aged follicular environment can be rejuvenated by transplanting it into a young follicular environment.

"The inspiration for this research came from the growing need to address age-related fertility issues. It is extremely curious that the female reproductive system, especially the ovarian follicles that contain oocytes, appear to be the fastest ageing system of the human body. This fact prompted us to delve deeper to gain a much better understanding of this ageing process and to discover ways to mitigate it," said Prof Li.

The novel approach and findings on the impact of the follicular environment on oocytes were published in Nature Aging on 9 September 2024.

Revitalising an aged egg cell

An ovarian follicle is a basic functional unit in the mammalian ovary, composed of somatic cells (granulosa cells) that surround and support an oocyte (an immature egg cell) as it grows and matures before ovulation. The granulosa cells communicate with the oocyte to provide essential nutrients and components through channels known as transzonal projections. In turn, the oocyte provides key components that signal the growth and development of granulosa cells.

MBI researchers tapped on this understanding of the relationship between somatic cells of the ovarian follicle and the oocyte to create hybrid ovarian follicles through an ex-vivo 3D culturing platform, building upon previous methods. The team then extracted the oocyte from its original follicular environment and transplanted it to a new follicular environment, whose own oocyte had been removed, to construct the hybrid ovarian follicle.

For a start, the researchers confirmed that aged granulosa cells, compared to young granulosa cells, exhibited an increase in the hallmarks of ageing, such as an increase in indicators of DNA damage and other factors linked to programmed cell death. They showed that this aged follicular environment can reduce the quality and developmental potential of a young oocyte.

The research team then created hybrid ovarian follicles containing an aged oocyte (i.e. an immature egg cell from an aged follicular environment) in a young follicular environment. The researchers demonstrated that the quality and developmental competence of the aged oocyte can be substantially, though not fully, restored through "nurturing" in a young follicular environment. The team found that the restoration of the quality of the aged oocyte was attributed to the reshaping of its metabolism and gene expression.

The researchers discovered that the young granulosa cells, which were much better at establishing transzonal projections toward the aged oocyte, helped to facilitate this restoration. In addition, there was an improvement in the function and health of oocyte mitochondria, crucial organelles for energy production and cellular metabolism.

The team further provided evidence that the young follicular environment could support much more accurate partitioning of the oocyte genome, which must occur properly during oocyte maturation to prevent aneuploidy – the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell or organism. All these improvements enhance the success of embryonic development after IVF, leading to a live-birth rate around three times higher than that achieved with aged oocytes not exposed to the young follicular environment.

The NUS team has filed a patent application for this innovation, particularly concerning the method used to rejuvenate aged oocytes by exposing them to a young follicular microenvironment.

The funding for this study was provided by ACRLE, NUS Medicine, and the National Research Foundation, Singapore.

A glimpse into the future of fertility treatments

"The findings from this study provide a proof-of-concept and the basis for the development of non-invasive cell-based strategies to improve the quality of eggs from older women or women whose reproductive ability is affected by other health conditions, which could lead to improved outcomes of assisted reproductive technologies, such as IVF," said Dr Wang.

The researchers hope to bring the potential application of their cutting-edge discovery to fruition by conducting more thorough studies to understand how the young follicular environment can improve the quality of an aged oocyte, validate the key findings of this study with human cells and oocytes, and develop an optimised follicle cell line that can be used to improve egg quality for better IVF outcomes.

The second issue of the documentary series "Encountering Jinan" – "Intangible Cultural Heritage of the People"

0

JINAN, China, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — This is a report from the Shandong Office of Hong Kong Business Daily. Intangible cultural heritage is like a clear spring, crossing the long river of history and nourishing every corner of this city, becoming a cultural bond connecting the past and the future. With the in-depth exploration of the documentary series "Encountering Jinan", we have welcomed the second issue – Intangible Cultural Heritage of the People. This time, we will follow in the footsteps of French student Elaine to explore the intangible cultural heritage treasures hidden in the daily lives of the people, and feel their charm and warmth that transcends time and space.

Shadow puppetry is not only a cultural calling card of Jinan, but also a crystallization of the wisdom and creativity of the people of Jinan. For centuries, it has attracted the attention of countless people with its unique artistic form and rich cultural connotations.

Under the introduction of Ms. Li Juan, the inheritor of intangible cultural heritage, the long history and cultural charm of Jinan shadow puppetry deeply touch the hearts of every explorer. Gently pulling the joystick, the shadow puppetry jumps and flips in her hands, and every movement reveals the exquisite skills and deep emotions of the shadow puppeteer. Elaine also deeply experienced the ultimate pursuit of skills and respect and inheritance of tradition in the intangible cultural heritage of shadow puppetry through personal experience.

As soon as they stepped into the hall of cross-talk, laughter and joy flooded in like a tide. The cross-talk masters stood on stage, telling humorous and witty stories with their heroic and delicate performance styles, allowing the audience to feel the ups and downs of life through laughter. Elaine was fortunate enough to have face-to-face communication with the master of cross-talk, Yan Dong. She learned a few simple jokes and, under Yans guidance, gradually understood the profound traditional culture and strong human touch behind cross-talk. These seemingly simple language fragments are actually a profound insight and embodiment of wisdom from the people of Jinan towards life. From exquisite shadow puppetry to humorous cross-talk performances, from delicate Lu embroidery techniques to authentic Jinan snacks, every intangible cultural heritage skill is the crystallization of the wisdom of the people of Jinan, their pursuit of beauty and love for life.
