On the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month, as the year comes to an end, the Spring Festival travel rush is in full swing. This year's Spring Festival travel rush marks the first normalized travel season after the stable transition phase of epidemic prevention and control. Among the essential transportation capacities during this period, railway passenger transportation is expected to reach 480 million passengers nationwide, a year-on-year increase of 37.9%. High-speed trains have reshaped people's perception of spatial and temporal distances, bridging the gap between distant places and homes.

Ensuring a safe Spring Festival travel season is a top priority, and Googol Power has been at the forefront of power security for the past decade. Over the years, Googol Power has provided 30 engines, covering power ranges from 360 kW to 2200 kW, as backup power sources for ten railway projects in eight prefecture-level cities nationwide.

Guangzhou Baiyun Station's Diesel Power Equipment On-Site Acceptance

In the recently concluded year of 2023, Googol Power supplied four HTAA40 engines to drive the power at the Guangzhou Baiyun Station, a mega-scale comprehensive transportation hub in Asia. On December 28, 2023, Googol's service engineer, Liu Tangfeng, conducted equipment debugging for the generator sets at Guangzhou Baiyun Station, preparing for the upcoming Spring Festival travel rush. Guangzhou Baiyun Station stands out as a mega-scale comprehensive transportation hub, being the first in the country to adopt a streamlined "four-corner entry" approach. With entry halls positioned in the northwest, southwest, northeast, and southeast directions, it maximizes accommodation for various transportation modes entering the station.

Googol supplied HTAA40EG3 engines for the machine rooms at each corner of Guangzhou Baiyun Station. These engines boast a backup LTP power of 1110 kW at 1500 rpm, with a displacement of 39.63 liters. The specific power is only 30.7 kW/L. This series of 20-cylinder engines was first introduced to the market in 2015, and its products have undergone extensive validation, demonstrating high reliability. The engines feature a modular design, ensuring good product consistency, high component commonality, low consumable costs, and the ability to achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

To date, Googol products have been widely applied in railway transportation stations such as Guangzhou Baiyun Station, Hangzhou West Station, Kunshan South Station, Foshan West Station, Fengtai Station, Longnan Station, Shenyang South Station, Taizhou Station, and more. From a 360 kW engine at Longnan Station to a 2200 kW engine at Hangzhou West Station, Googol employs two series, providing products with a uniform power gradient, ensuring ample power to safeguard the journey home for thousands of travelers.

In embracing the challenges and opportunities of the Spring Festival travel rush, Googol is proud to contribute to the safe and efficient operation of transportation hubs, ensuring a smooth journey home for millions of passengers. Looking forward, Googol remains committed to innovation, reliability, and sustainability in the field of power generation. Through collaborative efforts with partners and clients, Googol strives to play a crucial role in supporting the seamless and secure operation of transportation systems during significant events like the Spring Festival travel rush.
